November 5Th Sleevers?



Recommended Posts

Nov 5 with Dr. Lopez in TJ. I'm having Protein Shakes for Breakfast and lunch, a nice salad with chicken for dinner, and a yogurt for dessert. I'm allowed to have a shake in the evening as well so I substitute a yogurt since it's got the Protein and same number of carbs. I am already losing weight.

Nov. 5th here too. I'm a little nervous just because of the fear of the unknown I suppose. I mean, you can read all about it and talk to people who've had it done but you really don't know just how it's going to affect YOU until it's been done. Mostly though I'm just excited and ready to get it over with so the healing can begin and I can start dropping this weight and actually participate in life again. I've wasted too many years being unhealthy and consequently have missed out on a lot of things in life but NO MORE!

November 5th here! Nervous yes, scared a little. Excited at times, I have never been a skinny person, I am very nervous about that. I have a 17th month old boy named Max, and some guilt is creeping in as I hope everything goes well for both our benefits. Good Luck to all the 5ths, may the Baby Jesus be holding everyone's hand.

Getting VERY nervous! I am also excited! I have 3 small children so hoping everything goes smoothly for them while mamas away;(

Am I the only one internally freaking out a bit?

Definitely freaking out a bit. I think that's natural when surgery is so close. Actually, I think my body may have been freaking for a couple weeks. Only way I can explain why the pre op diet was so easy.

I started liquid diet + laxative today. Amazingly, it hasn't been bad so far. I'm on my second cup of broth - I had chicken this morning and beef right now. I hope I feel this good right until surgery. I'm down about 7 pounds since Monday.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
