My wife and I arrived at the hospital and checked in together ... We however will not be in the same room due to the fact we have similar names and have a name alert.. They don't want any mistakes .. We both got our Iv's and regular check up stuff .. Now I guess we chill for a few hours.. Will keep you posted..

My wife is in surgery and I'm getting set to go soon... They gave us a few meds to relax us while we waited.. One included medical marajuna pills and the other Xanax ... Our pain killer is Percocet for a short time and will be switched to tylenol

So that's it for now.. Just waiting.. Will post again when I'm alert!

So my surgery is the day after tomorrow. I'm feeling so excited and anxious. So far I've visited friends, cleaned my apartment, and watched movies to keep my mind busy. So so excited!

My pain is on the left at my rib too. Right to the one incision that still hurts. The doctor told me that was the bigger and the one that held the camera and stuff and its common. But definitely call to ease your mind.

We are both doing good.. Have terrible gas pains though... They give us a chewable every 4 hours for gas cause we were told were not able to use our gasx here ( sigh ) so..as of right now so far so good.. Just wish I could get just a little bit of sleep .. Hard when you fight through gas pain and once you fall asleep .. Someone wakes you up for something.. LoL

One other thing right off the bat my left side hurts the worse... However I have been alternating laying on my sides holding a pillow.. It helps a lot

All I know is I'm so glad to be on the losers bench and looking forward to wonderland

Starting weight 244

Weight when I got here 234

Goal weight 130

      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? 🤷‍♀️
