Thank you Krystal0528 =) Congrats 2 you i was in the hospital for 3 days my sugar was a bit out of wack my potassium was low and i had a bit of fever, but i'm glad ur home, fluids and Protein were hard for me as well i actually could not even stand the smell of the shakes after surgery never mind the taste and it lasted a few months but got better as months went by i still can't finish a whole shake once i open it soo i get as much protein as i can through meats, egg, cheese, yogurts etc i had to be patient and just let my body adjust i literally felt like a preggo the first maybe 3 months lol, the smell of certain foods, the taste, weakness, dizziness even me myself i felt that as i was going through the (ketosis phase) i didn't understand why the smell of my breath had changed i felt soo bad everytime i had to talk to someone up close, i just felt like overall my body smelled different if that makes any sense but i had my husband reminding me constantly "no worries honey in a few months from now you'll look back and see that it has all past and all was worth it" and sure enough it has passed, it is behind me and i am a completely NEW person, my advice one day at a time, stay active, get used to carrying a bottle of Water everywhere you go and remember no 2 bodies are the same so don't compare urself to others, patience patience patience just focus and do u, stalls will come just keep doing what you gotta do they will break through =) take care and Congrats again!

I am new at this and not yet had my surgery. any regrets from anyone.

Hii betterbeginnings and welcome i can honestly say that from my part the only regret i have is the "why didn't i do this sooner" i mean i'm still young but i feel i lost soo much time being and feeling sick, feeling miserable, stuck for 15+ years not being able to enjoy life, unhealthy with poor self esteem and could have done so much more with my kids and family but i am thankful that i did it because it has been like a new beginning new life and i wouldn't change it for the world =)

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

      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? 🤷‍♀️
