Hi there! I'm probably not supposed to post an introduction in this spot, but wanted to say hello ;) I'm new to lapbandtalk - just found you all today! LOVE it!! I live in Kent, and am scheduled for the band on 8/8/06 ... 2 weeks and one day!! Fridge is stocked with Costco's version of Slimfast to start the pre-op liquid diet tomorrow, with tonight being the offical "last supper" at a steak place :hungry: I'm so excited I can hardly stand myself!! (Excited about the surgery, not the steak dinner :phanvan ). Of course I also just found an "I regret my lapband" thread someplace (might not be on this site), and am a little nervous, but trying to stay focused on the goodness. Anyway, that's me! I'd love to hear from you all - thank you!

Hi Catey! One of my S-i-Ls lives in Kent. I spent most of my summers in the Kent highlands, up near Black diamond....

Anyway, who are you going with for your surgery?

      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? 🤷‍♀️
