So I weighed myself today and I'm down to 297 from 303 my highest was 315 when I started my lifestyles classes. I reached my goal of under 300 before surgery. I have heard of people having much more success during the supervised 6 month diet phase but I'm patting myself on the back. There have been so many roadblocks and hurdles along the way. WE ALL DESERVE A PAT ON THE BACK! Good for us all to get to where we are!

Day 11 of pre op diet-5 Protein Shakes plus all the clear sf liquids I want. I've lost 12 pounds too! Really praying for everyone that it goes well with no complications and a fast recuperation time for each of us

. Surgery is sept 11! It's so surreal after this crazy year of 36 medical appts, 2 sleep studies, endoscopy, jumping thru hoops for insurance, taking off work so many times -that it's all so close now!! It's really going to happen!

321 was my highest-299 now and ready to go!!

The Bucket List / Goals is a great idea. A few of mine are :

  • My sister is getting married in august '13 and I don't want to be the center of attention or draw attention away from her.
  • Buy a SMART CAR, if I can fit in one. I like things extreme, I have a jacked up ford excursion( very large) and the opposite of that would be something tiny. And I fell in love with Smart Cars when I was in the UK. I have to have one!
  • To fly again without paying extra or being so uncomfortable.
  • To do the activities that I used to do and keep up with my friends.
  • And mostly, be able to go anywhere without people gasping or making rude comments about my size.

Oh the waiting game is agony...LOL Been on the liquid diet since the 1st and today I had one final blood work and the clearence from the cardiologist and everything is still a GO but just waiting 'til next friday is horrible. I guess I made it this long, another week will go by quicky. And surprisingly I don't crave food at all. The protien shakes really help! Prayers and well wishes for all who has had the surgery. I love reading everybody's posts.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
