Nice! I used to take Xanax, but I love klonopin even more! Hahahha. Although I rarely ever take it.

I don't like klonopin as much. Not sure why it doesn't work as well for me. Xany all the way! Lol.

See, and I'm opposite. I think Xanax is meant to be taken on a more regular basis, where klonopin is for people like me who take it really sporadically. But either way. Yay to getting calm when needed!

Lol I have Ativan. And Seroquel for anxiety but I never take them. I asked if I could the night before surgery and they said not within 12 hrs of go time Bc it could mess with the anesthesia. Ugh

I'm at the airport ready to depart for my life changing adventure. My surgery is bright and early tomorrow morning with Dr Alvarez at Endobariatric. I am super excited and ready with a side of nervous. I lost 17 pounds on my liquid diet and I an hoping I fit in the airplane seat without an extender... I will report back in a few and let you know if that happened. Wish me luck! :-)

. Done with surgery, I've already walked around and am doing good!

All my pre op tests are done, insurance approved surgery date 2/25. I have to be at the hospital @ 5:45 AM 1st sleeve of the day. I start my liquid diet on 2/15. I am a bit scared, nervous, anxious, excited. It also doesn't help that my wife is also getting scared and second guessing the whole thing, She is my ROCK and I need her support. She is afraid of losing me, kids losing there dad, or see me go thru this and it not work. I keep telling her I'll be fine and it WILL work, I will make it work. Good luck to everyone.

MrSleeve, I too have the surgery date of 2/25. I start my preop diet tomorrow. The closer the date gets, the crazier my loved ones are getting. Stay focused and steadfast, they'll have no choice but to get onboard.

Ha! And Ativan works for you but I don't feel a thing on it. Funny how it works so differently for others. My surgeon told me I could take the Xanax the morning of my survey. Bonus! Haha. Not sure I will have to but he said if I'm freaking out take it and let the nurses know when I check in.

If I need it I will take it. But I remember when they took my band out that they gave me some realt good stuff in my IV in preop and I sure don't want to miss out on that! Lol. Also my phone just tried auto correcting preop to Oreos. Hahahaha!

Why can't you take it but not tell them????? Bahahahaha. I'm just kidding. Now I sound like a druggie. I'm not. I only like klonopin when I feel like I'm gonna explode with anxiety. In fact, I really can't take drugs unless I actually need them. They make me sick if I take em after I'm done being in pain or whatever.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
