of couse you should be scare, but trust God hands and you will be ok. the surgery itself for me was not a major thing just bring uncomfortable the first day, then day two and three was a piece of cake. the crew at the hospital I was were God sends. am loving every day that goes by with no regret. I have lost since surgery 36 pounds.

Remember this is a life changing tool, you will be able to eat what you want but smaller portion, just think you had spend all your life eating what you loved and that had bring you were you are now ! be patient and enjoy one day at a time... after surgery you would not feel hungry at all, so its like painless weight loss..

when you go out on dates and with friends you will be less expensive because you will not be able to finish a whole plate, with friends you can share an order or take a goody bag home! Youll be fine, just worry to recovery healthy and f

steady, drink your Protein and most importantly your Vitamins.

Yes, i have loss 39 pounds since surgery and was sleeved on 7/12/13. I also, had high blood pressure, diabetes type 2 and taking numeros medications. when you go to the Cardiologist the trick is to be relax or else your exams will not be favorable.. even at day of surgery you have to be relax if not they will even can cancle your surgery. I definately feel awesome and you can do it too !

my soups are homemade which are better, but when my Protein intake are low my resource is Bariatric Choice, is an amazing website that is design for bariatric patients and high in Protein. For example chicken Soup a box of seven $10.95 and has 15 grams of protein, they carry numerous variety.

I also, consume from them the hot chocolate which has 15 grams of protein an is delicious!

i drink muscle milk light 4 oz with 1 scoop of Zero carb Isopure unflavored powder which contains 39 grams of protein per scoop.

G2 from gatorade is great and plenty of Smart Water which contains electrolytes to avoid dehydration.

      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 had about 6 months between deciding to do surgery and getting scheduled. I came across the book The Pound of Cure by Dr. Matthew Weiner, a bariatric surgeon in Arizona, and started to implement some of the changes he recommended (and lost 13 lbs in the process without ever feeling deprived). The book is very simple, and the focus is on whole, plant based foods, but within reason. It's not an all or nothing approach, or going vegan or something, but focuses on improvement and aiming for getting it right 80-90% of the time. His suggestions are divided into 12 sections that you can tackle over time, perhaps one per month for a year if a person is just trying to improve nutrition and build good habits. They range from things like cutting out artificial sweetener or eating more beans to eating a pound of vegetables per day. I found it really effective pre-surgery and it's an eating style I will be working to get back to as I am further out from surgery and have more capacity. Small changes you can sustain will do the most for building good habits for life.

        That sounds awesome. I'll have to check that 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? 🤷‍♀️
