My surgery is 12/3/12. I am getting very excited and nervous... Looking for some friends on here to go through this with some support!! I am currently a breast n brain cancer survivor, and i have had many surgeries...like 2 c-sections, mastectomy, tram flap surgery, and just recently Brain surgery to remove tumor... But I am still nervous about this surgery! Especially since I cheated a little today with stuffing n cranberry sauce....

Happy Thamksgiving Sleevers. So thanks giving dinner was 6pz of turkey and 1 oz of blackberry wine. Though I am in limbo on a surgery date, I'm still on the preopt diet. i keep hearing the old quote in my mind, "Nothing feels as good as skinny feels" Nothing ever taste as good as skinny feels" (apparently Kate Moss never ate my mom's bourbon sweet potato pecan pie.) so .. Here is to being thankful for modern medicine, a new understanding of morbid obesity as a medical disease and.... The promise of a thinner New Year. We will rock December Sleevers.

Happy Thanksgiving Decembersleevers my date is the 6th of Dec too. I wonder why some doctors have us do days and some weeks of preop diets. I'm going to ask my Doc, but this is for everyone we ate good today but tomorrow lets get back on the grind and accomplish what we need to to get on the losers bench. Prayers go out to all of us on this journey,talk to you soon

Hello December sleevers, my surgery day is Dec. 7 and I too am having mixed emotions. I am exited.and so very nervous and scared. I have thought about this for years and can't believe it is finally going to happen. I wanted to have the surgery before I got any bigger. I want to loose about 65 or 70 pounds. I just wish I could stop worrying so much.

Actually my surgery date is Dec. 5th. I'm having a dual sleeve. I'm not sure why I put the 7th. Lol

My surgery date is 12/3/12, I wanted to have it on 12/11 because that is the day after my 39th bday. My manager is giving me such a hassle about the time off and I have been really stressed out about it. I started my 2-week pre-op liquid diet on Monday, last night and today have been really hard. Thankfully my family did Thanksgiving dinner on 11/10 when all my family could be there. I am very excited and extremely nervous which sounds like a common theme on here..:). Glad to have found this support site! Good luck December sleevers!!

My date is 12/3 also! I'm sure this surgery will be a walk in the park compared to what you've been through. I took a couple of small bites of dressing today just to make sure it tasted alright. I'd think as long as you stick to your diet from here on out you'll be fine. Today was Day 4 of liquid diet.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
