I'm not in Atlanta but about an hour and a half south. I had my consult last week with Peachtree Bariatrics. I go next week for tests.

Congrats to you, hopefully things will move along pretty quickly.

How's everybody doing? I know I posted somewhere on this thread a few months ago, but it's been quite awhile. I'm in Athens & was sleeved on June 19 by Dr. Macik at Northside. I hit my halfway goal of 70 lbs down yesterday. :D

Hello everyone,

I'm new to this forum, I had my sleeve done March 2012 I've lost about 96 pounds but would like to lose another 25 to 30 lbs. live in Lawrenceville, GA. I probably should have lost all my weight by now but I haven't been eating right and not exercising. I want to get back to basics but its just a little different once you start going back to your old habits. Anyone live in the Lawrenceville area want to pair up and maybe exercise and just have a friend to talk to?

My husband was sleeved by Dr. Macik 9 weeks ago. He's not on here but if you want to email him, I can see if he'd be cool with that.

how are you doing?

I'm in decent pain. Pain meds don't generally work for me like they do most people. If I'm still, almost no pain. Getting up and down, terrible pain! Buy, I'm unusual, so don't let me scare you! Otherwise, I'm getting fluids in easily and not hungry at all. Down 21 pounds, 15 preop.

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

      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? 🤷‍♀️
