Good Luck keep me posted when you set a date. We're still waiting for the final insurance approval.

I think it will be August for me too. This is a revision for me from the lapband. I was going to wait for the province to pay - but it could take years - so I am off the Mexico myself, spoke to the Canadian lady this afternoon - and I have requested August - so finger and toes crossed!

That's awesome! My husband and I both are having it done! I think it will be wonderful to have someone to support you that knows exactly what you are going through. He is going first and then I'm going two weeks later. I can't wait for the chance for new begginings. My BMI is 51 and I weigh 321 lbs. So I have a lot to lose. But looking forward to the journey of my life. I hope we can stay in touch!

I hope my date doesn't change.. Had my pre-op testing yesterday and the EKG was abnormal so instead of going on vacation today, I spent several hours waiting to see the cardiologist for clearance... and I still have to go back tomorrow for testing! Now I'm worried I won't get to go on vacation or get my surgery. Fingers crossed tomorrow's test is all I have to do and everything will be back on track.

I will be thinking about you. I hope all goes as planned. I experience something simular, and now I'm just waiting on a date. Good Luck!

      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? 🤷‍♀️
