I love the mini story! No. Not sleeved yet. Thursday morning. I'm ready! I totally used to tell my friends "I can eat that, I just have to wait for it to go to my lower tummy" lol.

i was the same way! Haha. By the time I got my sleeve done I was eating so much food. What's your post op diet like?

Yeah. I hit a day of "omg, I will eat my dog!" It sucked and I was a b***h all day. I even punched a wall and made my knuckles bleed. I am never violent and rarely that angry. It was awful. I am here for you friend. Just try not to punch me. :)

When u said that about your dog I laughed so hard! I kid you not, less than 10 minutes ago I looked at my shih tzu and said "Lilly, I wonder how many meals I can get outta you". She just huffed and went to sleep. If she only knew how close she was to being a rotisserie morsel....

I'll restrain myself. No punching. Promise.

I have two chunky beagles. We could have a full BBQ.

Jen's is Thursday and mine is Tuesday. There are several of us right together and it really helps to have the support. Being able to get on here and have friends that actually understand what you're going through is a lifesaver.

I don't smoke. Maybe I'll learn to crochet or something.

I'm pleasantly surprised at how I am getting through it. It's day 8 for me too and tonight we had dinner at my parents. They all had hot dogs with home made chili and slaw. Yummmm. It smelled good. But I never even had a 2nd thought. I had my Soup and then Greek yogurt for desert and was satisfied. Even better I was proud that I made it through a family dinner with no issues.

I love exercising. I know that's weird but I really do. And I love my gym. I can't wait to get back. I started running over the summer and it was hard but I would like to get back at that.

Knitting or crochet would be a great distraction. My best friend and I also are re-watching desperate housewives from the beginning. It helps to sit there for an hour and not be able to get up haha.

I took colace all through my pregnancy and it helped me tremendously. Also, are you getting enough Water? I know we are on the 'quids but I have to ask. Lol.

I could probably stand to drink a bit more actual water. I drink water with my ProtiDiet concentrates and at night, b UT during the day the last week I pretty much drink Powerade or gaterade G2.

I'm sure that's the issue. You've been so good about eating no sugar and super high Protein. You just need to get through the night and give away those yogurts. You will get through this.

      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? 🤷‍♀️

      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.
