October Surgery Dates



Recommended Posts

Aah! One week and I'll be loaded up in the car' date=' making the 3 hour trip to the hospital to get this new life on the way! I just can't believe the whole process took exactly 30 days from start to finish...its insane! I'm getting super anxious and almost tempted to take the rest of the week off work! Sending good ju ju to all those starting a new life this week! Your stories keep me motivated![/quote']

I am going in on the 8th as well...I am ready to get off the muscle milk..it has started leaving a thick coating in my mouth ( during the night) It is awful to wake up to. But anywho..I'm ready...nervous but ready! I have everything packed except for my IPad and chapstick. Good luck to all of you...will be checking posts to find out how everyone is doing. God Bless You!

10 days til GO TIME for me and counting. It's getting closer and closer! Good luck to everyone going today for surgery!!

**I had a small victory this morning, it's jeans day at work and I was going thru my closet and found a pair of jeans a size smaller than my usual, I tried them on for kicks and they fit! I wore them to work. Good way to start off my Friday.

I think it's cute and unless it's something horribly inappropriate, there's no such thing as not appropriate! Good luck with everything...

Well my revision surgery from band to by pass is 15th October 2012! Nearly done the first week of pre-op diet second time around seems a lot easier, but wasn't nervous at all last 3 ops yet really really nervous this time which is not like me at all. Anyone one else in the same boat as me?

      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? 🤷‍♀️
