We will be starting our pre-op liquid diet on Tuesday. He has to do 30 days so I'm just starting it then with him. I think I'm actually ready. I've been having a week & a half long food funeral so I feel like crap. I'm ready to stop eating & get with the plan. Nothing has tasted as good as I thought it would; now I have a few extra pounds to get rid of.

I had a major setback and was sure I wasn't going to be able to keep my Sept. 12th date, but just as I have read over and over...one call to Susan and the problem was fixed within hours. Dr. Alvarez has been blessed with such a wonderful coordinator. Seriously, I have never had a Dr office contact me on a Sunday just to offer encouragement. I knew from day one if I was going to have surgery it would be with Dr. Alvarez. I did start my Chantix and quit smoking Wednesday night. I am doing very well with it and haven't touched a cigarette since. This is no small feat and I'm extremely proud of myself. I was a smoker for 22 yrs, now I'm a quitter!! I start my 7 day pre-op diet on the 5th....good luck to all the Sept sleevers...we are going to do great!!

      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? 🤷‍♀️

      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.
