Hey ladies! I'm 24 from Long Island and I'm getting my surgery on December 10, I'm glad I found this thread because a lot of people I see on here are older, which is fine but I feel like we can relate better.

I'm 24, but were all going through the same thing so age aint nothing but a number. Good luck on your sleeve.

Thank you. I'm starting my 2nd day of pre op and I hope all the days of pre op go as well as yesterday. Still haven't found a Protein drink that actually taste good though.

Hey Liz! good luck! i just got sleeved on 12/12 - the pre-op diet, although boring and bland, didnt seem to bother me as long as you stay busy! not i'm fighting through the mushy food phase of the post-op diet. best of luck to you in the following weeks :D

SO happy I found this forum!

My name is Melissa and I am 25 years old. I was sleeved on July 19, 2012... making me just over 5 months out. Progress is good thus far- down just over 100 pounds and I have officially reached onederland :)

Am looking for friends to talk to along the way since none of my friends know I had the surgery. Feel free to add me!

      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.
