My day is coming up really quick and I'm getting very nervous!! This will be my first surgery that I've had and I'm just praying it will be okay. I have been planning this for such a long time, now that I'm almost there I'm scared. Is anyone else feeling like this?

red31, I have had surgeries in the past and I'm still feeling scared. I think it is a mix of excitement and worry. But it will be ok. This is becoming a common surgery and I'm sure you have done a lot of research before now. We are going to be great!

I got my surgery moved to the 9th! Much better for my kids schedule, so excited that I'm officially less than 2 weeks away.

Had my Workshop and Dr. Visit yesterday..... My initial visit I was at 397lbs and yesterday's weigh in I was at 365lbs my BMI went down from 58 to 51. I started my liquid diet yesterday and feeling pretty good today! I'm working on the sip sip sip thing that's going to be a big one for me! My pre-op weight they want me at 330lbs so I'm confident it won't be a problem...

Great job!! That is wonderful progress :)

I'm just doing what my NUT told me

shakes throughout the day, unlimited leafy greens (lettuce, kale, broccoli), calorie free dressing, and Water. I'm also drinking Isopure zero carb Protein Drinks. I'm sure it will probably slow down as I keep going.

      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.
