One More Day Of Work!!!



Recommended Posts

And then I can start getting everything ready for the 16th!! I'm so excited. Is it weird that I'm not nervous?? I've always been the type to just get it done, when it came to scary stuff etc. there's no turning back, I'm leaving the past.

I wasn't nervous till I really started to think. About being cut open. Yikes. I'm really excited, but not gonna lie about being nervous. I'm in really good health( beside being overweight) and feeling wonderful after losing 21 preop lbs. I'm nervous, cause I have 3 kids I need to come home too, that need me. But I'm putting all my trust in God. He's yet to interven and make me change my mind. So I'm doing this 100%. My surg is wend. Good luck to you! ;)

My surgery is on Thursday too! Good luck to both of you guys...I can't wait! I took 10 days off from work so I hope i do well. This has been so many years in the works. Every time I got close something would happen like losing my jobs, or my wife telling me she wanted a divorce, closing my business, or foreclosure...one way or another something happened. This time all is going well, I have it paid for, time off from work and now I just need a ride to an from the hospital! Good luck to us all, let's stay in touch post op. Good luck....

mine is the 15th I'm not scared of the surgery but concerned about my pre op diet I really dont see the scale going down much but my clothes are getting loose especially around my waist I just worry that I will get everything done and the surgeon look in there and say ok close her up the liver is too fat I have lost 10lbs but the majority of that was before I started the pre-op diet. I am just going to keep going and pray he can see my hard work :) Good luck to everyone

me too I have had surgery before but for some reason I am nervous about this one I guess because I worked so hard to get to this day. I am working tomorrow I just need something to occupy my time if I sit at home I will go crazy and it's easier for me to be on the clear liquid diet when I am constantly busy Good luck 15AUG band buddies we are almost there

Just joined the forum I am at the very beginning just started thinking about having the lap band surgery and joined the forum to get some info on what steps to take, I am reading a lot of positive posts, also a lot of posts that talk about getting fills, not sure what that means, I got the name of a doctor who does the lap band surgery fro my primary doctor, I just have to get up the nerve to make an appointment.

Good luck to all of you who are about to have surgery, I'' probally check the posts to see how you made out, thanks.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
