Yes that's where I seem to be. It's all worth it in the end so I can't complain.

Just approved by my insurance last week, my pre op appt is the end of this month, which we schedule surgery on that date. I figure late March/April is when they will get me in. Would like to find a buddy to chat with thru this process, because frankly I am scared lol.

Congrats on getting approved! I will be having surgery around the same time as you! I'm always looking for new buddies they are great to have.

welcome!!! the sleeve is the best thing that happened to me...I was nervous about my many things before surgery, but now I am fine...loosing weight and gaining strength.

To top it all my daughter asked me 1 day before surgery when i was ready with all my tests...MOM do you think you are doing the right thing? I was so upset.

But now she is happy with my progress.

SO GOOD LUCK TO ALL OF YOU.

Well I'm glad you listened to your heart and knew what was best for YOU.. I'm so scared to tell my family and friends because I know they will discourage me. I really need this surgery, it's the perfect tool to help me change my life. I just don't know what to do.

Hiya curvy.. My surgery date is March 12th. Doing my presurgical blood work tomorrow, then taking my preaurgical class in the 26th. It's so exciting, nerve racking all rolled up together. Seems like time is going so slow!!

Congrats! I wish my date was in the beginning however I'm glad it's going to get done regardless. I know how you are feeling I can't wait to experience the same as the time gets closer.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
