Day 2 went well and i actually got some rest last night.

Today is day 3 and my stomach is confused! it's making all sorts of sounds. LOL I had a Protein shake for Breakfast and I've been sipping on Isopure. I'm finding it hard to focus without food.

For me day 2-3 was the hardest. I made it though and it's a lot simpler now. I realized during this process I am a compulsive eater, and I now can control it because of this pre op diet. When my husband and I go to dinner or lunch I make better choices. Today makes 2 weeks I'm on pre op. I know I lost some lbs I can feel it Patiently waiting for my banding day! Hang in there you can do it

I'm also really loving it, kbush - for sure sometimes i'm a little grumpy and i really can't stand to have aromatic food around me (my husband has taken to eating most of his meals out of the house) but i feel so much more in control right now, and a lot of my old cravings are gone. i just feel on-fire with this all being the right decision for me.

My husband told me not to cook anymore because the food i cook is nasty...LOL! i'm WAS so used to tasting everything i cooked but now im not. So, Im guessing it does taste a little different.

That is too funny ! I'm recovering at my moms and she made this taco salad and I just went to the back of the house. My mother in law is in town so she's filling the fridge up with food for my husband . Thanks mom!

I would start tomorrow, rather than today. One day will not make a difference, I cheated on my preop and did fine.

I am 6:30am in thurs too!

Meanwhile my husband just committed the ultimate atrocity. He brought McDonalds home and then fell asleep so there was a quarter pounder in my living room. There was 4 seconds when I thought "I'm just gonna have it" but insist give in. And I didn't want it sitting somewhere teasing me, and since I'm so mad he brought it home I gave it to the dog. Serves him right.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
