@@kissieJ -- We're on the same date! Looking forward to sharing experiences and supporting each other.

I'm excited but I'm kinda getting bored with the waiting. I was working hard, trying Proteins, exercising but now I'm losing momentum. But, according to the ticker, 5 weeks and 3 days left... I can make it!

I am so excited for everyone who has a June 9th date. That is my wedding anniversary. I am looking forward to your experiences so I can be better prepared for my surgery on the 25th of June. I hope the month of May just blows by. I wish I had a job so I could have something to concentrate on while I am waiting. I am so glad I found this website. Good luck everyone!!!!

I started my process April 1st. My insurance only asked that I be 100 pounds over weight & a BMI over 40. I had no waiting period. Im so thankful for that.

I started on March 3rd. I didn't have a waiting period either. I have a financial matter I have to take care of in May or I would of had a May date. I am happy with the June date though. Gives me time to get things squared away at home and my hubby will have enough time to schedule time off work. I am so excited about this major life change. I have already been put on their liver shrink diet and I will admit, it's not easy. I received all my pre-op paperwork the other day and we are not to gain weight before surgery or it will be canceled. So now I am afraid of gaining weight, so I am sticking to the diet.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
