Be been hoping this day would come, and now it's here!!! I'm so excited I don't know that I'll sleep. I have to be up at 3am to get ready to go to the hospital so this really is happening!!! I lost 20lbs on my 7 day pre-op diet! I can't wait to see how I do after! Any one else having surgery tomorrow?

My surgery is tomorrow also and I have to be up at 5 AM and also feel like I can't sleep! It's okay though because tomorrow will be exciting and I'll get a nap during my anesthesia induced coma :)

My original date was for 10/14 but I got a call on Monday that my surgeon is sick and another surgeon in the same practice was willing to cover but it had to be this Thursday. Of course I said yes because I didn't want to have to wait several more weeks. Good luck to you!!

Hang in there girls! You will have ups and downs in the first month but it will be worth it. Come back to the real world that is beyond the wall of fat! You will be happy you made the trip.

. How are you doing with pain and nausea?? My pain on the pain scale has been above 8 since surgery and I'm constantly nauseated. But I'm getting better... I think. Gas pains are still intense but I've done great walking.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
