Yes this liquid diet is getting old. I have been on it over 2 wks and my Surg is now the 26th..... The docs office said they would like me to stay on it until then. My final pre-op appt is on the 22nd. The boost shakes and Vitamin Water and reg water is getting old.

Monken and I have a doc that wont let us eat yummy things like juice, potatoes or cereals......nothing but lean Proteins for the first 75% of weight loss. Fun fun fun.....but I guess that is motivation enough to get there I guess.....then we get veggies back right....woohoo....I'm going to miss artichokes and asparagus and oh so many things.

So frustrated.

My surgeon has had to pass me off to another Surgeon. And I'm supposed to have my surgery next Friday.

Now I need to meet with the new surgeon, and I have no idea if I am going to keep my surgery date or not.

Unfortunately I am out of the country on business so will have to wait till Monday to see the new guy.

Which is stressful. How am I supposed to start my per-op liquid diet this Wednesday when I don't even know when my surgery date will be.

I cannot even explain my frustration it's that huge!

There was issues between the hospital and the medical aid/insurance.

So have to change hospitals and surgeons. Hopefully it will be the 19th now, but will have to wait and see. Meeting new Surgeon on the 11th then I will know more after that.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
