Recommended Posts

Thanks for posting this info and pics!!

I am planning to be there this time next month and I love seeing and reading about the trip!

Did they give you any kind of pre-op diet to follow, I emailed that question to Nina but have not gotten a response on that yet.(just asked her last night)

Thanks again, I hope you have an easy recovery and can't wait to hear all about it when you feel up to it!biggrin.gif

Just noticed that

Loved the blog. You made my have a good laugh that you were the scariest one because you had no make up on. I am a week and a bit behind you and not believing that this is going to happen. Keep us posted on your progress.

you're welcome...I hope it helps. I didn't have a pre op diet because my BMI is less than 40. I believe they only do pre op diet for over 40. I plan on doing lots of pics over the next few days and if I get brave, maybe a video or 2.

That would be great! I would love to see some videos! Take us on a walking tour of the hospital if they will let you!

Quick question, I will be flying into San Diego the night before, too, so that I wont have to leave home before daylight the day of pre-op. If you don't mind, how much was your room at the Hilton?

No clue. I travel alot so I just used my Hilton points. Someone suggested the Hampton Inn but I'm just not a big fan of the Hampton. My room at the Hilton was beautiful.

I have a few pics of the room and view. Just don't know how to imbed into this post.

      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.
