It is finally here, I am sitting in my hotel room awaiting the date and I am totally not even scared or anything yet... I thought it would have hit me by now... Sooooooo I expect that closer to it will be crazier for me but for now I'm just awaiting the time... Should I sleep before surgery or expect to rest afterwards?

Thanks guys! I am currently awake it is 5:00 am in San Diego, and almost 7:00am in Houston. I am still calm but definitely a bit more somber. I can't believe it is finally here. Thanks Deb and Oopsseedaisy, you have no idea how good it feels that you have reached out to me and you dont even know me. Thanks for reaching out a hand when you certainly didn't have to.I sincerely appreciate it!

Congrats. Def. tell them if you are nauseous. Much better for them to give you something for nausea than for you to start vomiting.

      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? 🤷‍♀️

      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.
