November 19Th- Officially



Recommended Posts

Hi all...November 19 here as well. I've been on my pre-op since last Monday...lost 6 lbs so far. Drinking a Protein Shake in the morning and broth or Protein shake at lunch. I either eat 1/2 c of grapes as a snack or a sugar free jello; then a protein and vegetable for dinner. Excited but very nervous about the surgery, but I know I made the right decision. Everyone here in the forum have been very supportive! Thank you all!

Thanks Nickyd! Good luck to you this week as you continue your liquid diet! I cheated today for lunch and I feel awful! But I'm back on track this evening! No dinner, just a shake...pray for me!

Good luck as well to all my other sleeve sisters!

I am scheduled for the 19th as well. Ready to get started. Getting nervous too. I am so afraid that somehow it won't work and all of this will have been for nothing.

I'm the 20th, so I am right there with all of you! I can only have liquids, it is getting boring now, but the weight is falling off, 5 lbs since the 7th, so that is keeping me focused!

      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? 🤷‍♀️
