I had my one on one with My Dr. Today. I have to go on liquid diet and lose some weight before surgery. No specific amount but he asked that I work on it and really try. He also discussed my health history with me and other things going on and he strongly recommended Bypass over lapBand. Going forward with his suggestion of doing the Bypass after our lengthy talk about it all. Surgery date is the same but new paperwork submitted to Health Insurance for approval which Dr. says is not a prob as it's been done before. The office didn't have any samples of the protien shake they recommend so I stopped by costco and picked up the Protien drink he also recommended from their. I will start to incorporate it into my diet and get used to it now and not wait until the last minute. I'm nervous.

So I guess with the change in Procedure from Lap Band to Gastric Bypass I don't really fit into this group anymore :wacko:

      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? 🤷‍♀️
