Today my liquid diet begins. I am praying to God that I am strong enough to get through this. Had my last class and appointment yesterday. I am drained and overwhelmed with everything but I know that I an going to need support. This is going to be a process!

I'm still waiting on insurance approval (submitted last Thursday). Out of everything, I know the liquid preop diet is going to be the most challenging! Stay positive and remember this is just a temporary phase to get to our healthier lives! You can do it! :)

I am on day 8 of my liquid diet. U can do it! Day four was rough for me cuz every one had a cook out but stayed strong. I am hoping to be sleeved July 10th but also awaiting insurance final approval they needed a letter from my surgeon stating I had been well educated.

Hi, I started my liquid diet Sunday, today was ok, but missed the BBQ ribs, lol. The think that I have noticed is that my husband is eating things that he normally does not eat, that started day 1 and the tv commericals for food are HORRIBLE! I did not realize there where so many. When is your surgery date, mine is the 16th!

Hang in there! You are doing this to be a healthier you! Try to stay busy so you don't think about it! Maybe you can organize or clean out some closets! That is going to be my plan! :)

      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? 🤷‍♀️
