Sara, you will be great! So glad you are getting so close to your date. I am as well! My mental journey with this started back last August when I starting thinking this was a possibility for. But the physical journey started on 12/17/12 when I went to my surgeon's Lap Band Seminar. I am so thrilled to be on this path. Good luck to you!

I just had my initial consultation today. If insurance falls through and I'm a self pay, I'm shooting for a surgery date of March 18. If insurance is going to pay, I will have more hoops to jump through, so it will be around 6 months.

I have an upper GI March 4th and then I am hoping that after that I can schedule late March for the surgery. If things work out, I am super nervous though.

Today i had to start my liquid diet, i have to do liquid all day with one meal and then starting the 18th i go liquid all day till surgery! Today was..interesting! I was really excited last night to get started, the Protein Drinks arent to bad (better get used to them i guess!) My surgeon is having me do the month long liquid because of my starting size. I will be around on here as often as possible! Here to listen and help as i can! Hoping the month of February flies by, im so excited to start slimming down and feeling good!

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

      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? 🤷‍♀️
