December sleevers!



Recommended Posts

@ Dolphin Kisses, I was born and raised in Walbridge Ohio, Just south east of Toledo. I now live in Michigan.

@ Sleeve Dreamer, are you coming off of caffiene? If so, you might try weaning yourself ....those withdrawl headaches are a bummer! Also i am on day 9 of my preop diet. I had a head ache the first 2 days.

Hopefully you willbe pain free soon.

@ Cooper...we are sleeve twins!

December 28th is the beginning of my new life as a sleever! I'm having my surgery at Central Baptist Hospital in Lexington, KY by the fabulous Dr. Weiss. Cheers to a great New Year everyone (I'll be toasting with a Protein shake)!

Just started my one-week pre-op on Tuesday. So far, is isn't so bad! I surprisingly have more energy than before (most likely because I was having a food funeral for the past 3 weeks), and I'm really not that hungry. I miss eating, but thats about it!

Roxyrooster, No I have not had any caffeine for a long time, so i guess it is just an adjustment. I will get over the headaches soon i hope!

My preop diet is not low calorie, but is low carb. I have felt weird... like my legs feel heavy, just super low energy. I guess that is why i have never been able to do low carb for very long, i just don't feel great. I know I can maintain it to my surgery (Monday!!!) but I am worried about how I am going to feel post op considering how lousy I feel right now.

My preop is doing better than I thought. I went to the mall today and took with me in a small cooler the Protein Plus premixed drinks from costco (very good) and a sugar free Jello. I drank a bottle of Water on the way there and to home, now I am having my Unjury chicken broth. I guess this proves we can really survive without eating all the time! I can't wait til I am on the soft foods stage so i can puree some Soups. What is the average people lose during the preop? Anyone know?

      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.
