I'm definitely ready for surgery. Bought a fitbit so i can record my steps and flights and I'll also log what i eat on my fitbit android app. It also records your sleep pattern because the correct amount of sleep is also important in losing weight.

I fully expect everyone on here to whoop my behind if I slack behind.

Long day. Home from the Cardiologist and EGD. The ticker is working good, got some medication for my blood pressure, and found a small hernia which helps with my insurance;) Got instructions for pre-op diet which is phase 1 of the South Beach Diet. Surgery date is June 15th and I am super excited and ready!!!

cfurrey...This is an exciting time! It's natural to be nervous. You made this choice for a reason. Take a deep breath and remember why you are doing this. It's going to be hard, but soooooo worth the journey. We will all be here to support each other. You can do this. I am 54 years old and not nervous at all. I'm not sure why, maybe my excitement has taken over. I have less than a week and can't wait! Hollar if you need a pick me up!!! Big hug!!!

I have thought about this for a long time and decided this is what's best for me to get control of my health and my life , time for me to make better choices for my health and this is it, we will do well or we would not have made this decision.

I have been adding crushed ice to my Protein Drinks with a little sugar free pudding powder shaken in. It has made the drink thicker and tasting better. I am trying to get one down a day with low carb high Fiber the other two meals.

I am 58 yo and at the low end of the BMI scale ( 35) I weighed 325 , lost 127 pounds but have not been able to keep it off. I was down to 198 but have slowly crept up to my preop high of 242. I am hoping to regain a sense of control and my health back since I don't want to go back to my previous weight. Banding scheduled for 6/5.... have had lots of surgeries so not nervous but wish it was over.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
