I started my journey in Feb. and am scheduled for June 24th with preop on June 19th. I guess I should be nervous but am not. I am so excited to be starting my new life in less than 2 weeks. I am doing well with the preop diet as my surgeon allows 1 small meal a day. Congrats and good luck to all June people. :)

June 23 for me too! On day four of my pre op diet but it's not too bad. I'm just HUNGRY. I'll be so relieved to have a repreive from being hungry soon. Even if it's only a few months of not being hungry.

I've bought some awesome cookbooks and a protien shake book on my Kindle. Amazon.com has some really good stuff on WLS diets and recipies.

I just can't wait to look down and see less of me.

It's a life changing experience and to help you if I can....think about how much your life will change for sure.

We have been in these overweight bodies so long that when these are taken away we will be thin and that is scary.

It's like getting a new pair of shoes. We have the old ones that are so comfortable even if we know they're ugly looking that throwing them away doesn't feel very good.

Deeward, i am only three days in, but I can safely tell you at this point, that if you do plenty of research, follow ALL of what you are taught, and be realistic expecting a certain amount of pain and discomfort, you will get through fine. So far for me, it is wayyyy worth it!

      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? 🤷‍♀️
