I am hoping for 4/14. Who is your surgeon? When are you going? Which hotel? Which hospital? I am going to go by myself. I would love to have a buddy.

I am pretty sure I am going with Dr Illan. Do you know that Jerusalem Hospital is not really a hospital but a clinic in a strip mall. If you have any complications you would be sent via ambulance to a real hospital. If you are comfortable with that I am cool with that. I just thought I would tell you I case you didn't know. Also you should check into where you go to recover.

I'm undecided yet if I'm going in April or the first week in may. My doctor will be Dr. Illan. I had anxiety this week when I was thinking on scheduling in march so I am giving myself a few days to pick my surgery date.

I am having my sleeve on Friday, April 11th with Dr. Cabrera. I am so nervous and excited! I have done so much research and made my mind up that this is the best decision for me and my health. I am staying at the Marriott Tijuana and surgery at Hospital MI Doctor. I am concerned about how much time I really need to take from work. Flying on the 10th, surgery on the 11th and currently going back to work on Monday the 21st. Just wonder if I need another day or two....

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

      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? 🤷‍♀️
