I am so anxious! I can't even sleep! I had to go in for my surgery pre-op and get x-rays and meet with the nurses. I'm so excited! Thursday can't come soon enough!

I went for my pre op stuff at the hospital yesterday. I think that's when it really hit me that this is happening, and soon!!! Well that and the fact they took away my food and are making me drink this nasty Protein Shake stuff. Ewwwe. Lol. You better stay in touch after surgery!! I want to know how it goes for you :)

I will definitely stay in touch! Same goes for you!!! I want to know all the details! The shakes haven't bothered me yet, but I'm sure they'll get old. My favorite so far has been the costco ones. I didn't like the Isopure but maybe I'll get used to it. Ok! Last weekend before the sleeve! Let's rock this!!!! :)

Day 4 of shakes and I'm feeling GREAT!! Honestly I was soooo hungry yesterday but today I haven't even thought about food. Woo Hoo!! I'm so ready for Thursday. What time is your surgery? Mine is not till 1:30. So 11:30 arrival time at the hospital.

I'm doing the Bariatric Advantage shakes right now because they were a "have to buy" from my docs office. I got the shakes and all kinds of chewable Vitamins. But once I run out I will definitely try the costco ones. Oh, Gatorade makes a Protein shake that I bought for after surgery. It's 8oz and 20grms Protein. I went crazy at the grocery store finding anything and everything that has protein. Ha ha.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
