June 23rd for me too!!! Yay!! Congrats!!!! :) Happy dance from me to you!!!

I started my preop diet 3 days ago and I am sooo hungry!!! I have 4 tiny Protein Shakes a day and about 3 oz. of tuna or something like it for dinner. In between, I have sugar free Jello. I'm going nuts! I'm standing here cooking supper for my family right now and am feeling very emotional because to be honest with you, I could eat dirt right now!!! Lol Anything with texture would be good.

The good thing is that I've lost 6 lbs. as of this morning...6 lbs. In 2 days....hummm...I want to be excited about it but my tummy says FEED ME!! lol

Let me know how you're doing as you go through all of this. This is an exciting time for all of us June sleevers.

I'm curious about your Protein bars...how much protien/carbs/sugar/fiber/fat is in them? How many calories are you limited to? I have to get down 15 lbs. But had already lost 5 before my diet started. The doc did say the more I lost the faster the surgery and recovery would go...that's why I'm keeping on...sigh.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
