I just got a call yesterday to schedule my surgery. I thought I would have to do a 2 week liquid diet and I figured that the earliest I would be scheduled would be the 24th. I also thought I might have to go to the November group. Talked to the scheduler today and found out that I'm doing my surgery on Tuesday, Oct 15th. What? Turns out that I don't have to do the 2 week diet. I'm still in shock that I'll have the surgery so soon. I have my pre-op appointments tomorrow and will find out more. Who else is having it on the 15th? I would love to go through this together!

My Dr called a few minutes ago and told me the other Dr's wife just went into labor so they have going to have to postpone my surgery. He's going to call me tomorrow to discuss the date.

It sucks, not because it's postponed... But because I have to drink all this crap again. : (

      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? 🤷‍♀️
