Well, as it turns out, I haven't gained approval yet, so the 16th is definitely out for me. In fact, it's unlikely it will happen here in December at all.

Best of luck to you all next week and in the coming weeks!

Hi I'm getting sleeved on the 16th also. I'm so nervous today that I'm sitting here eating something that's definitely not on my liquid diet! Good luck everyone.

On Monday I will be at the hospital at 5:15 a.m. - happy for the early time - better to get up and get it over with! I'm in NC - so weird to think that people all over the country are feeling some of the same feelings I am!

Good luck to you all!

Ready for Monday! Was super busy at work today, thank goodness! Have to arrive to hospital at 5:30 am, it's 45 minutes from my house...not sure how much sleep I will get Sunday!

I cheated after getting home and had a slice of deli turkey... Chewed it to mush and thought of spitting it out too. Figured it couldn't do too much damage. Crossing fingers! This liquid diet has not been easy, but I have given it 98% and I think that isn't too bad! As of this morning I have lost 6 pds. Started liquids Monday morning!

Wishing all my fellow 16th sleevers a peaceful weekend and a good experience Monday!!! Get your toes done, but leave big toe unpolished for anesthesiologist!

My daughter is heading over to pick up the perishables and some crackers and such that are not going to be eaten!

My husband and mom will be at the hospital during and daughter will come when she gets out of work.

I had a headache every day for about a week when I started my pre-op diet. I read somewhere that if you eat a lot of carbs then stop that can cause headaches. I was a carboholic.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
