Day 1 pre op diet here we come. Already have a headache which I knew I would have. I'm about to clean out the pantry and fridge so there isn't any temptation.

Pre-Op diet is much better today. Went out to restaurant with some ppl yesterday and I did fine. I just drank lots of Water and talked! I've been worried about how few calories I am consuming with these shakes. How many calories are you all getting per day?

I'm in the Bronx. What prompted your revision? I responded to your PM.

My Surgery is with NY Bariatric as well, Dr Angstadt. Dr Garber removed my band on may 22nd :-)

Hi' date=' how was the edg? I'm going next Tuesday...a bit nervous.[/quote']

It's not scheduled until the 12th.. They are going to do the EDG and some Brovo pH monitor to make sure I don't have GERD on that day.. Then I start my liquid diet on the 13th.. I hope all goes well for you..

      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? 🤷‍♀️
