Hey the pre-op diet is hard....everyone who had to do it can atest to that....just stay focused on what you desire....a healthier life, the first 3 days will be hard, you will hit what I call "the wall" and on day 4 it will become easier....

Just think of the pre-op diet as it getting you ready for the eating stages after the surgery (which it is)

Hi Mich! I know you can do it. I was sleeve this past Tuesday and had a two week pre op diet of 2 shakes and one Protein rich meal a day. Well....let me tell you.....over the 14 days we were at Disney for 6 days (over Thanksgiving no less) and then I had a girls weekend in New York City. If I can do it with all that going on I know you an too! I just kept thinking about how important it was for the surgery to be as successful as possible! Good luck! Let me know if I can help!

I did good but now waiting waiting waiting for Monday. Getting a little nervous. Don't know what I'm afraid of but none the less. How did your surgery go. How long did it take. How long we're you out.

Thanks for the support.

Home and trying to get as much Water in me as possible. Feeling good. Hubby a big help. He got us out of dinner Friday night. I did not tell a whole lot of people. And a big dinner being planned this weekend. He said we couldn't make it. He's has been soooooo good this past week, helping me get ready and then helping me get through the nerves. Don't know if I could have done it without him.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
