5 months down, psych eval, EGD, sleep test..etc. scheduled my last weight management and pre op nutrition for October 11. That 6 months flew by but just don't know if it's real yet. Don't have a date yet or even if it's looking hopeful, just wondering if anyone else is in the same boat?!?!

I am done with all my intake except my EGD which is scheduled on 10/21. I am still waiting for my insurance approval. Which I hope to get this eek or next. I think once I get the official approval it will feel more real!

Thanks and good luck to everyone! I have felt the last 6 months would never end but I know that's not even the hard part! I know the 2 week preop will not be easy for me but making a point to stay positive!

The first couple of days suck! But it gets easier, just keep yourself busy.

Thanks! I really need to buckle down. Busy schedule and eating on the go so I really need to come up with a plan on getting those liquids in.

Tomorrow is my last supervised visit with my pcp. I had to do 3 months and it literally flew by.

Are you excited? Anxious? Nervous? Relieved? What are your feelings? I am all of the above. I've wanted this for years, and now that it is so close all of my feelings are going crazy... Excited about my new start.. Anxious, it flew by but still feels dragging, nervous that something still may change and relieved to know I made it through the wait. Now the work must begin! Best wishes and prayers your way :)

      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.
