I have been reading your posts- you have helped me make my choice.

Dec 4th is RIGHT around the corner. I cannot wait to watch your journey. Please keep posting.

Are you doing anything now to prepare? I gave up diet coke and trying to not drink while eating. I think that is hard and trying to sip and not use straws.

Are you going alone or taking someone for support?

Aw thanks! I LOVE diet coke! Lol the whole idea of not eating/drinking at same time is hard for me. I drink a lot when I eat. :(

I am trying to prepare mentally most of all. I am getting in a few foods (mostly carbs) that I know I will not be able to have for a while, but not over doing it.

I am going alone. Hubby has to work and kids have school. But alma knows I am alone and she is gonna take good care of me :) plus, the only time I will really be alone is at the hotel any way.

I will post as much as I can as I go along. I M trying to get some Xmas shopping done too lol!!

      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? 🤷‍♀️
