I just wanted to say thank you to my Carrie on the forum. Sometimes I think we forget to thank the people who love us the most and encourage us. My wife went out and purchased all of my food for my 2 week liquid diet. She put all the different shakes,Protein drink mix and Protein Bars in lunch bags and also put the day of the week on them with the calorie intake of the bag! If you have a spouse,friend or other family member kicking ass for you like this, please give the thanks that they so well deserve.:D

Respectfully,

Joe Lopez

That is awesome...way to be supportive Mrs. Lopez! So I follow suit and give a shout out to my husband and son (16 years old). They both spent the night with me at the hospital and has taken really good care of me over the last two weeks.

That's so sweet. I must say I'm jealous. My boyfriend isn't supportive of my getting the sleeve (hopefully in Nov.). He won't go with me to Mexico or have anything to do with it. He's slim and doesn't understand being overweight. He's only worried about complications. But he won't even listen to me talk about the doctor or his track record.

Big Joe;

You and your wife are an amazing couple. You for being a grateful spouse to post thanks. Thanks for the smiles.

So, since you have no ticker...how are you doing?

Wow she is great and so are you for thanking her! Woo hoo!!!

I am pre-op and have already thanked my husband for going to the orientation with me and not fussing over having to self pay if need be. I was going to do it anyway, but I feel lucky and relieved.

Thank her often Joe!!!!

      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? 🤷‍♀️
