... laid in bed constantly wondering and worrying about the decision to have WLS and adding to it leaving the country to do it... wishing your brain would SHUT UP and let you sleep?

Paigers- I think about it 24/7. I am obsessed with my surery. What is hard is my husband does not agree with my decision and will not even speak about it. I feel very alone but I will not change my mind. I really hop I run into you there. Talk soon and hang in there.

I've had to swamp myself with school work, music, sleep, ANYTHING to distract me. I don't even have a date yet but I'm obsessed with my surgery. It's become my life in the last few weeks.

I wish you luck! I'm sure your husband will come around. He's prob just worried and uncertain!

I am going nuts too, trying to decide which doctor, or even should I do the surgery!! I have no support from family. They think I should lose the weight on my own and should never consider going to Mexico. (I am self pay). I am up at 3am looking on this board everynight, lurking, searching, trying to find answers. Going NUTS!!

I can totally relate. I did a lot of research b4 making my decision on whether to go at all and which doc to use. As for my support system... They are reluctantly supportive. They don't agree with my choice but they've chosen to stand behind me... grudgingly.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
