I've lost like 6 lbs so far just being on this liquid diet. What did you have to do for your pre op diet?

I was only required to do fasting liquid diet for one day before surgery. The doc said because I had a bmi under 50 not sure if that is common. 6 pounds that is great !

This seems to be standard for anyone doing the procedure through Roch Gen.

Hi! Another Rochester NY friend! I had my surgery August 27th by Dr. O'Malley as well!...stuck at a 40lb weight loss. I heard stalls are normal, but would like to lose more. My goal is 30 more pounds. Regardless of the stall, I'm so happy with the way I now look....best of luck to you as you too begin your new life!

Hi Yankee welcome I am only two weeks out but I hear stalls are normal as well. I was excited to day to but some new sweaters in the next size down feels good. I look forward to the 40 pound drop.

      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.
