Congrats to you on your date!!! My procedure will be Jan. 3. I have my pre-op appointment on 12/18 so I assume he will tell me what diet I will need to be on and etc. I am nervous, happy, scared, excited...I don't even know what to do with myself right now...

I'm set for Jan 9 provided my insurance approves it! My paper work was sent in on Dec 4 and I am still waiting to hear from them. I hope they hurry soon I don't want to go thru the preop diet for nothing.

My surg date is Jan 8th. I am so excited but scared at the same time. I guess I am afraid of failure. I can not stick to a diet so how will I keep the weight off 10 years from now. I am glad the surgery group I am going to has support groups.

Change your thought process. It's not easy but it can be done. You are not a failure at all , be thankful that you have this chance to make your life better. Support groups are great and just put yourself around positive people.☀☺

      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? 🤷‍♀️

      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.
