Getting ready for my surgery tomorrow! So excited and less nervous than I thought I would be. I guess I'm just really ready for this! Pre op diet went better than expected. I was hungry' date=' but the Protein Shakes were filling. Keep me in your prayers!!

Everyone is different. I read all these stories and first hand accounts of what happened but in the end my experience was solely my own. I am 5 days out and I feel like I never even had surgery outside of the random runners pain from my lower incisions when I move wrong. I'm sip sip sipping my way to happy land. Patiently expecting weight loss without obsessions, weighing in every damn day, fretting over every little detail. I will do all that I need to do to maintain my health and I pray that you do the same. You will fare well. Pray and mostly, relax. Have a go with the flow mindset when doctors and nurses have to do things a bit differently just for you. This is really a custom experience. I am so happy I did this.

I'm 4 days post-op and completely agree!!!

I though we couldn't have crackers

I was told that saltines were okay because they pretty much melt in your mouth. Nabisco has a great wheat saltine. My nut warned against any other kind of cracker or bread, Pasta or rice because they can expand in your stomach and cause major discomfort.

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

      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? 🤷‍♀️
