I had my nutrition class Thursday. WOW! So much stuff to take in! The Dr told us to take notes, I think I was the only one that did lol. I wanted to make sure i didnt miss anything. I had so much on my mind that I only slept 2 hours that night.

Insurance approved me in 48 hours and they called yesterday with a surgery date of Oct 11. I'm definitely nervous buy very excited. I go Monday for a physical with the surgeon and go back Tuesday for my endoscopy. Then my 2 week pre-op diet of 2 shakes and a sensible dinner.

I'm excited about having it in October. I thought i would be in November. I should be well enough to enjoy some Black Friday shopping! I would be more upset missing Black Friday shopping than I would be missing Thanksgiving dinner! LOL

Congrats to all the Oct losers!

I am not sure if my Surgery will be in October, but my colonoscopy and endoscopy is October 2nd, and my surgeon usually does those a few weeks before the surgery. I am exited and nervous at the same time. This will be life changing, I lost 16 pounds so far since June 29... and I seen the changes, Imagine when I loose ALL that weight.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
