All,

Thanks so much for your support!! Nice to know a I have

More " brothers and sisters" who are supporting me......but I got as far as the OR, on the table and was

Given the first round of sleeping meds. Unfortunatly, they could not intibate me after two attempts. So after two weeks of liquid diet and 24 hours I fasting, I need to do it all again as my date will be rescheduled, again. I had a milkshake on the way home though:)). !

What the Hell!!!!

You need to have your Dr find you a New Anesthesiologist for the next go around.

That is just BS. Any Anesthesiologist worth their Degree can intubate or at least use an LMA for an elective, controlled surgery like this.

I wish you the best of luck and hang in there.

All, I got the VIP treatment on my rescheduled "sleeve" day. Had all the best as it got around that I could not be intubation the last time (10/31)

My surgery went great on 11/13. With the exception of the extreme nausea I had upon waking in recovery ( lasted about an hour) and being dehydrated before being released ( they gave me a Bollus, a liter in about 45 minutes).

Have been doing great so far on day 5 post surgery. Weighed 385 in June, and 348 on the day of surgery and weighed myself today at 340!!! Thought it was going to be difficult to get my "water" in, but haven't had an issue at all. I couldn't be more pleased with my short term results and am using an iPhone app to log all of my food. (My net diary) and its Feel good about the future!

      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.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!
