Tomorrow I have my pre-op meeting with my surgeon. It's when I will find out what time my surgery is and all the last minute details. I'm so excited to know more details. It's a little surreal to me right now and each step makes it more real.

July 30th here. Ready but nervous. Researching and getting my head wrapped around the mental issues I may go through of loving food, being bored and wanting to eat. I have high pain tolerance but get nauseated at the drop of a hat. Don't want nausea!

July 30th for me. Not nervous...yet. Going by myself to Mexico, but I've traveled enough to be comfortable with it all. Can't wait to compare notes with you all in a few weeks. Now that we're down to the countdown phase, I am definitely starting to get excited. Good luck to all you July sleevers! Here we goooooo!

Just checking in with you July sleevers. I was sleeved July 19th. I ended up spending 2 nights in the hospital. Honesty I would have stayed 3 if they wanted me to. I had the best nurses. The day of surgery I weighed 277. As of today, 7 days from surgery I weigh 263. I'm so happy. I'm a little on the tired side but I'm doing day by day. The best decision I have made in a long time was to have WLS. Any questions, you can email me @ jenray83@yahoo.com. I am hear to help you all and answer any questions you may have. Gods luck and god bless :)

Tuesday is the day! Not too nervous I guess. Never been under general anesthesia and hoping I don't say something too embarrassing coming out of it, lol. My biggest fear is nausea. I already get nauseous from anything (car rides, any motion I'm not in control of making). Not too fearful of pain, as I have had a cesarean and PA said it is not any worse than that, and I wasn't in pain at all. Another hurdle will probably be cooking for my 3 year old and legally blind husband. Afraid the mental "want" to eat will be frustrating, cooking all their meals. I know I can do this though! And I can't wait for the results!! Eeek!!

Did u guys ever cheated on your Pre op diet

We have friends over that I cook for on Sunday evening, so I did tend to eat less healthier things on that day, for that meal only. Then I got right back on track come Monday morning. It never affected my weight loss. I don't think one meal a week, and not gorging yourself, will hurt your weight loss overall IMO. My biggest friend has been Water, Water, water! Keeps it all moving!

      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? 🤷‍♀️

      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.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!
