I just had my approval from insurance verified and and scheduled for June 26th! I'm equal parts nervous/excited/scared. I have lost 14 lbs during my 90 day (insurance required) doctor monitored diet. I live near Dallas and will be having surgery with Dr. Kennedy.

Is anyone near me and prepping for a June date? I could use a buddy to go through this with.

I am sched for June 25th....and instead of eating right I have been having this feeling of eat this or that while u still can...I. have to get this under control or im going to gain soooo much weight before surgery, which I definitely don't want to do!!!!

Hey! I don't know why I didn't see this until now! I was doing so well for a few months making all these positive changes preop and I lost 20 lbs! And then I had a good two weeks of going out to eat and eating eeeeeverything. But some crazy miracle I only gained back about 4 pounds, but I know I'm a runaway train at this point and really need to get my crap together this coming month before surgery! How have u been doing since??

I get back to the states on May 31st and have surgery scheduled for June 4th. Starting to get a tad nervous, but glad to finally see the light at the end of the tunnel.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
