surgery @ 8 am tomorrow.



Recommended Posts

Everyone is asking me if I'm excited. I am, but there's some serious trepidation. I have a son with MD who depends on me. I had to tell his dad that he had to do better if something were to happen to me. I don't want to jinx it, just want to make sure things are in order. Still have so much to do tonight.

Its normal to feel some anxiety before the surgery. Try to keep your thoughts positive. Hopefully your surgery will be a breeze with no complications. Wishing you the best tomorrow, good luck. :)

That was totally me before surgery. Everyone at my surgeon's office was like, "Aren't you so excited?" I was thinking, um, no, not really...had a mix of emotions. I'm sure all will be well- you are doing this so that you will make sure to be with your son for a long time. The surgery is really very safe. Good luck!

      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? 🤷‍♀️
