I walk for about 10 minutes up and down my street. ( I live in the country) I don't push myself or anything, just slow and steady. It really feels great during and after the walks. I actually enjoy them now. Trust me...if you have gas...IT HELPS! Good luck

Hi there! I live in Uptown Dallas, right near the American Airlines Center. I'm getting sleeved in Mexico on 4/28 - 13 days!!!! I can't wait! I'm going through this totally alone, so I would love to have some sleeve buddies to go through this with me!

Baylor has a support group and I went on 4/12 and it was really great! We need to get together and support each other!!

Take care,

Cynthia

Hi Cynthia congrats! I am in southwest fort worth and I am having surgery on May 10 with dr. Ponce de leon in Tijuana Mexico! I need a support group too locally. I went to the baylor one here and it was ok but no one other than the presenter talked :( so I don't think it was much of a support group. Who is your surgeon?

Cynthia & Lbeauty,

Keep us update on your progress. Several of us are from the Dallas/Ft Worth area. Good luck on your upcoming surgeries. Mine got move to 4/25 and I'm getting more and more excited!

How is the rest of the Ft Worth/Dallas post op folks feeling? Everybody healing good? We should all find a point of contact to meet up at any support meetings.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
