I'm being sleeved by Dr Garcia on April 23rd. Haven't rode a plane in 25 years. Nervous about fitting into the seat! Hopefully your plane ride is short!

Well maybe I'll see you there Jthurman. I arrive on the 26th and I've never been on a plane before EVER! lol My plane ride isn't short either. I'm flying from Philadelphia but I did manage to get exit row seating for all the flight's except for 1. I was told those seats are a bit more roomier.

Oh, geez. I can't remember which Hotel it is (I know) I should remember these things, but I believe Alma told me the Marriott as well. So you'll be leaving out the day of my surgery. Will you be traveling alone?

Yes, we should be able to see each other. I 'll be with my husband, but I'd love to come by and see you if you're not too tired or groggy.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
