I requested to have surgery at the Florence Hospital on May 10. I'm still up in the air about the Single-incision. I don't want to spend the extra 1K, but I really don't want to be cut on in several areas. I don't have any scars on my stomach now; kind of want to leave it that way.

He does one while you're under, and two after. You drink a clear liquid and then a blue one. You also have

x-rays that you take home

Yay! Can't come soon enough! Is everyone else pigging out now?? Lol

I have eaten so much that I am sick of food. My husband told me I better stop eating before they end up charging me more because I weigh more than what I told them. Lol. I'm tired of food. I might start Pre-op early.

I'm in the process of confirming for May 30 with Dr. Garcia - so good to see people posting positive stuff about him. I'd love to hear more of your experiences before I finalize my package!

      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? 🤷‍♀️
