way to go !! i was just banded on tues dec 13th. so far this has been a breeze !im so lucky that i havent had any complications yet. other than a little gas the day i had surgery, and a little soreness on my left side, ive been ok. i rested alot over the last few days, walked around the house , and felt well enough to do a bit of shopping today. i go back to work on monday. hopefully things will go smoothly for you too!

the office informed to start dieting earlier in the week before my approval came in. the diet was so hard in the beginning! but then when I found out I was actually approved I was like this is a breeze! it could of been that or the fact that it was

my third day and everyone says it gets easier after the third day. lol :)

I have been on this site for since September when I first went to my initial consultation. and Friday was the first day I decided to join in! I'm so excited and hope everything goes well for u!

(sorry if I have typos...doing this on my iPhone and it autocorrect craps) lol

btw the only thing I crave and miss is dr pepper! :(

Well I had a bad headache last night but I got through it. This is going to be interesting as I have to be on the diet for Chistmas parties, a baby shower and Christmas day, but so far I've survived 2 parties w/out cheating. As my mom said "no pain, no loss" lol.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
