I have decided instead of doing one week with a shake and 4 oz meat and 1cup of veggies for lunch and dinner that I am going to start the 4 shakes a day and 64-80 oz of liquid half being Water on Tuesday when the preop starts. I have already been doing good with one shake a day and healthier lunch and dinner. I am ready to start. So I am going to start on Tuesday for a surgery date of June 6

My surgery is set for June 3. I'm in upstate New York. I don't have a pre-op diet or endoscopy. Lost 12 lbs so far and am ready to get the surgery done...just getting everything set in my pantry and making my list of things to take to the hospital. I will be home by myself after surgery. My best friend that was to help me has left me high and dry. But I went through gall bladder surgery by myself. I can get through this as well. I love all the support everyone gets on this forum.

sleep studies are not that big of deal, yes u will not be in your own bed but the bedroom should be set up like a hotel room to make u feel more at home, yes u will have alot of wires hooked to u but u will survive i promise plus im guessing u dont have a choice but to have study

      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? 🤷‍♀️
