We are here for you! Know that people like me pray every day for all my fellow sleevers and their surgeons! It seems like time goes by slowly when you start the WLS journey but as the day draws near, time flies! Once you get to 'my surgery is a week from today!' you'll really have anxiety! Just keep reading positive posts and check out Utube videos, VSG success stories or post-op xx weeks-they help replace fearful thoughts with exciting thoughts about yourself, your body and your future! Good luck-you'll be great!

No, haven't started my ore op diet, they told me to start that when I have a week to go. I guess I'm excited and nervous at the same time. Being a nurse I guess I have a different insight about my hospital stay. I know that things sometimes go wrong and I don't want to be a statistic. I have requested a certain anesthesiologist for my care, I have done my research on my surgeon. What I can't control is the nursing staff and my outcome. I guess that's what I'm nervous about. I'm also concerned about the pain aspect, the catheter, and my recovery time. What I am excited about is starting this new path to being healthy and more active. Thanks for the support, thou guys are really awesome!

      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.
