As we all know when ever there are 29 days in Feb that means it is a leap year, which only occurs every four years. Well my surgery happens to be on that day. Lately I have been wondering, going forward on my journey, what date should I choose for my sleeve anniversaries (too funny thinking about the years to come when this year just started). Should I go with Feb 28th or March 1st. Let me know sleeve family what date would you choose?

I say pick Feb 28 and Celebrate by buying yourself a new outfit! It will still fit on Mar 1 too! :D

Hi Andi,

I am excited and nervous all at the same time, how about you. Tomorrow I have to start a two day clear liquid diet. Do you? It looks like we are going to be sleeve sisters. Keep in touch with me and let me know how things go and I will do the same. If you choose March 1st I will too...lol

Yes please stay in touch. It will be so nice to have some one to share the stages with. I don't know about you guys but I'm ready to move forward. Do you guys have to do magnesium citrate on Tuesday to clean out your system? I'm told I don't want to be far from the bathroom Good Times lol.

I do not have to drink the magnesium citrate. Today I had to start a two day clear liquid diet consisting of Soup broth, sugar free Jello, sugar free popsicles, flavored Water, and just plain Water. I was also told to stay home on the 29th...yeah right I have two appointments tomorrow...yikes lol

What time are you guys going in for surgery? For what ever reason my doctor's office won't give you an exact time until the day before. I guess thats what happens when you have to use a military hospital.

      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.
