Keep up the hard work. Like I stated before. "No one said this journey would be easy, we only promise it will be worth it" I keep focusing on that everytime I get discouraged and blue.

I think you are doing great and you are going to master this, Good luck to you. Keep us updated.

That's good. I have to get my gallbladder out because I have gallstones. We should make a thread for all "July Sleevers" :)

Hi,

So just got off the phone with my coordinator. She told me that I need to be on nothing but Protein Shakes, broth, & Water and if I absolutely cannot take it.. then, I can eat lettuce, Tomato, onion, & stuff in that nature.. but no dressings or meats.

She said this is detoxing my body along with preparing my body for surgery so that it doesn't go into shock, & to lose at least 10 pounds to shrink my liver.

Im 12 days Pre Op and I know I have to drink the liquid that cleans me out. When do I start the pre op diet and what does it consist of?

      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? 🤷‍♀️
