Recommended Posts

HELLO TO ALL!!! I have not been on in a while. Trying to get through the HOLIDAYS without gaining. I did well, only put on 5lbs..

I"m about to start the liquids... So I have been shopping for things like that. When I started looking in to this, it has to be over a year now.....My surgery Date is Feb 4th...Only in Dec did they mention about "pul "sleep study Doctor".. I made the appt, but it would not be enough time for me to go for a Study.. So the Doctor did "breathing test in his office" I did the treadmill and such. He than sent a letter to the Surgeon for me to have my Operation. YEA!!!! 17 DAYS to go... Almost can't believe it. I will start the liquids on Tues this week. Hope I can do this.. Let me know if any of you are close to my Date. Would love to hear from you.... As always wishing you all the Best.. JEWELJ

I start my 3 week pre-op liquid diet in 3 days and will be sleeved on Feb 10th. I'm freaking out a bit. My BMI is 53.3 and I need it to be under 52 before surgery or they will charge me an extra 500$ for anesthesia. Hopefully the 3 week all liquid diet will get me there! I need to lose like 20 lbs. Ahhhh!!

      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? 🤷‍♀️
