I'm in Calgary. I would love to keep a support network going for us Calgarians. Please check in regularly and update. Perhaps one day and meet and greet?

I don't know about a 'Calgary Program' that was mentioned by @kelliecalgary. I just did my own research, selected to go through A Lighter Me and pulled the trigger. What is 'the Calgary Program'?

I am pre-op, with surgery scheduled in Tijuana on August 24.

I board the plane to San Diego tomorrow morning. Gastric sleeve surgery Sunday morning. It's been a blur, honestly. July 29 decision made, deposit paid. Less than a month and I'm having surgery.

No time to panic. Oh, except I have not packed yet!

:)

Hi. Out of hospital now and resting at hotel. my experience at Mi Doctor Hospital was mostly good. he staff and doctors are terrific. I am not in pain or discomfort.

on the road to recovery. no scale, so I don't know my current weight. I'll know soon enough, though.

My diet is Water, broth, gatorade, Jello, popsicles. Until I get home on Friday. No Protein before then.

good luck to everyone.

      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.
