Hi I'm Jan. 10th!

I can't believe it's actually 2 weeks away. My surgeon didn't require me to do a 2 week liquid diet. I was required to lose 10% of excess weight. I still need to lose 4 lbs by the 2nd to reach that goal. So tomorrow I'm going to start 2 Protein drink and sensible dinner/ per day.

I've tasted a few Protein powders and found that I like Syntrax Nectars. They mix really easy with a spoon and don't have an after taste.

Trying to get my family ready ( I refuse to cook until I get to purée stage at least lol)

So far not nervous , just really excited. We have a family trip to Hawaii in July and for the first time in years I'm actually looking forward to hanging out by a pool. If I have a 50 lb weight loss by then I will be happy.

How is everyone else getting prepared ?

Saw my surgeon today,so excited... Received the preop packet, I asked the doctor if I needed to bring a heating pad, pillow etc. he said no, that they will supply everything I need.... Does anyone have any suggestions of what I may need so I can ask for it.

Awesome! What is it like drinking? Does it feel different to you? Can you only drink a little at a time?

It feels weird drinking, I can only handle a little at a time... But the gas moving around really really hurts.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
