I am starting to freak out. Worrying something will go wrong and I won't get to have surgery. Worrying about after surgery will I be able to stick to the rules. Im freaking myself out!! I have my pre op class on thursday and two weeks from today is surgery. Praying for some peace.....

I Just went through the same feelings this past weekend! But, after thinking about everything, I have concluded that I Can Do This! WE Can do this!! Before surgery, our tummys are still big and hungry but After surgery, it'll be different. We will be able to stick to it bcs we're going to eat differently and get more active. We're going to have healthier lives and better times ahead! Stay Positive. You can do this!! :-)

I think I can get through this. I have a headache right now and I expect it to carry over to tomorrow but still, I'm ok with these drinks. Three weeks. I can do this.

You'll be at the top of the stairs and hopping into your coaster seat before you know it!! And don't get sick after the ride... OK?!!

      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.
