Any January 2014 Surgeries?



Recommended Posts

Hello all! I am scheduled for January 13th! I am excited but also kind of nervous. I'm scared about being put under. What is everyone's pre op diet? Well if you have one. Lol I have two weeks of two shakes a day, 3/4cup of vegetables, a half of cup of cottage cheese and two to three pieces of fruit. It's actually not that bad. I can eat something. My friend just had her two weeks and she had nothing but shakes. Good luck everyone our time is near!! :)

I have three week pre-op liquid diet. Four Protein Shakes plus six cups of calorie free liquids. Can also have up to two cups of celery, cucumber or spinach if I feel the need to chew something. Nothing else. I'm kind if nervous about it but I'm sure I will do okay.

Wow three weeks? Idk if I could do that one. Lol I guess if I had to I would. Good luck! It's all worth it in the end. That's my little pep talk I am going to be telling myself during my two weeks :) I can't wait to be on the losers bench!

Surgery date for me is January 16th, I start my pre-op full liquid diet on January 2nd. I don't think it'll be that bad...I can have cream based Soups, Protein Shakes and puddings.< /p>

      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? 🤷‍♀️
