Sept Surgery Dates?



Recommended Posts

Okay. my September friends. Today was the first day of my 14 day pre-op liquid diet and well........ let's just say it wasn't all that successful. I ended up eating food (some Peanut Butter and a lot of terra chips- as in a whole bag). Not an auspicious beginning, I admit. Anyone else out there have a less than "perfect" start to their pre-op liquid phase?

SO so glad that we are all the same month- it will be encouraging to watch us all go through this together.

9/5. Scared as hell if I'm honest, but looking forward to a better life. :-)

I am scheduled for Sept 10th! 4th day of my 10 day liquid diet. Not thrilled with this but it is a necessary evil I guess.

I too am the 10th and started my pre-op diet on saturday. I feel very grumpy and weak. I hope that I can feel better as the week goes on...............5 day to go until the big one!!

Great, same day! Let us know how you are doing. I know for me the liquid diet is tough. I have been cranky and tired but am forcing myself to clean and get the house in order so I don't have to worry about anything after the surgery!

Hi, I'm scheduled for Sept. 11th! I started my liquid diet on August 14 and I'm so proud that I haven't cheated at all. Only 6 more days and I'm getting nervous. I have a 9 month old and 3 year old. Anyone else with lids?

Hi fellow september sleevers, I am glad to have people to share our journey with. My surgery is scheduled for 9/18/2012 with Dr. Nicholson. I am super excited. I started my 14 day pre-op surgery, slim fast and one small meal in the evening. So one day down, 13 to go....

      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? 🤷‍♀️
