Any May 2014 sleevers?



Recommended Posts

Today is the last day of my full liquid diet and I start 1 week of Clear Liquids prior to surgery on the 14th. I go for all of my preop testing tomorrow morning so I'm excited to be getting close. I lost 8.8 lbs since last Wednesday by gained a couple back today so that was extremely discouraging. But I'm sure ups and downs are going to happen!

I had my sleeve done on May, 1 and I am having trouble I've been having so many emotions staying on this clear liquid diet. Any tips?

My surgery is May 15th. Yikes! This is my second. I had a lap band in 2011 that had to be removed 7 months later, so I'm nervous and excited.

Jess, I will be with you on that day but I am so busy that I barely have time to think about it. Fire at mom's place in while she is on vacation in Arizona and a new job for my husband where I already work part time, prep for an intimate talk with about 3, 000 high school students, speak on stage to the said students, arrange to get new floors installed, plant bulbs. prep for post op etc... this is just a sample. My center doesn't have me on the liquid but I do it because of the convenience so find something to keep you busy but make sure you don't let the gremlins roar, I find that the shakes actually help. I call them gremlins, there is a technical name but i don't know how to spell it.

i have not gone through it yet but, i plan to make popsicle with the clear Isopure, its a bit pricey at about $4 a bottle but I think its still worthy for the clear days. I tried a batch and my only problem is to keep hubby from them, Just joking, after the operation he wont even think about it. He is a little afraid something will go wrong.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
