I leave tomorrow morning at 640am to fly to Puerto Vallarta. Surgery is on the 12th. I've been on Clear Liquids since yesterday morning. Super hungry and of course I have a headache, but I'm starting to get really excited. I'm a worrier so I'm convinced I'm going to have complications with my revision, but hoping for the best. I hope everyone else is doing well!!

Best of luck with your surgery. I'm a revision too, and had my surgery yesterday. You'll do fine, I'm surprised how well I'm doing. I think the band surgery was a lot worse.

December 18th in the house!!! Only required two do clear liquids pre surgery with an option to do more days. I may do 7 or 10. Scared out my mind!!!! Hoping to inspire my overweight hubby to do it too, but he is NOT amused!

Hey Tammy I am 12/18 too! If u don't mind I would like to keep in touch to see how you are doing

Its 2am. I'm scared and my stomach is a wreck just from the anxiety. I go in Tuesday at 6 am. Just afraid something will go wrong and my baby boys won't have their Mommy. I'm low risk, no health problems besides the weight. Still no rational discussion with myself seems to put me at ease. Especially when I look at their little faces. Feeling alone.

I feel the same way. I have three small kids, and my mind races sometimes with anxiety & worry. What it comes down to is that we never know when it's our time to go, but while we're here, we should do everything we can to make "our time to go" as far into the future as possible. Statistically, this surgery should increase your lifespan. Take comfort in that, and know that you're doing this for your childrens' future, and yours.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
