Hello all!

I'm new to this thread. My surgery date is January 15th!! I started my pre-op diet yesterday however it seems to be much different than what most ppl have to do. I'm to have a Protein shake for Breakfast and lunch , all the green veggies I want and a sensible dinner (which gives me the option of a lean Protein with a salad or a healthy choice, WW or lean cuisine meal).

YAY! We have the same surgery date!!

Hugs to you all.

That was my pre op diet as well but I had a bad tooth that needed pulled so I ended up doing almost all liquids or full liquids. But I think just knowing I could eat a salad or some meat helped me. I did eat salad a few times.

Best wishes

I have noticed lots of you have to do the liquid diet. My Surgeon doesn't require anything pre-surgery. I am starting to eat very low carb almost like what i did in induction with Atkins. Again wishing all of you having surgery the best of luck!!!

Yes, many of us in December had that grumbling. So I would say its common.

Congrats:-) welcome to the losers bench.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
