I had lapband in 2011 and changed to the sleeve in December of 2012.

How exciting!! it's creeping up for you!

Yes, Just scheduled my surgery 2 days ago. I'm going to Juarez. I'm very nervous, and to think, I wanted to have surgery this month, but couldn't get time off from work. I feel very alone. Like this is not going to work for me, that i'm not going to be able to change the way I eat. I have very little support. I have chosen not to tell very many people. I can't talk about my concerns with my husband, he does not understand. it's like to big elephant in the room he has chosen to ignore. A friend of mine had this surgery almost 2 years ago, and has done very well. I have asked her a lot of questions, but hate to keep bugging her, I'm going to the same Dr. she went to. she has made it sound so easy, but I continue to doubt myself. So I will continue to follow this forum, enjoy the holidays, and pray that the same new years resolution I make every year will actually become reality.

this forum has been a lifesaver for me. I couldnt imagine not having my boyfriend support me. I am very thankful that he does.

as for missing the chili,, I do! I miss the mountains the most though :(

      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? 🤷‍♀️
