I've had weak moments too, like Thanksgiving. Our docs have to expect that. We just have to get up and back on the wagon, right!

There was a glitch with my insurance paperwork, I am scheduled for Dec. 18th but my surgeons office is resubmitting for approval tomorrow. Please send positive vibes I need this to go through. I am supposed to be starting my Pre-op diet on thursday. MY pre-surgery testing is scheduled for the 10th. Positive thoughts: This will happen!

I know I have seen people mention pre op testing at the hospital like right before surgery. They have not told me what this is ? I have my last appointment with my surgeon on the 12th and do whatever at the hospital afterwards. Anyone know what they will be doing ?

      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.
