How did work go. I agree your tough. No way I could do anything that soon. Try to rest some. Your body needs time to heal!

I'm so amazed you could work . I couldn't do anything for a week! Dont do too much. You had major surgery and your body really needs to heal for you to be successful. As I said before please rest and take care ofyourself!

On my 1 day clear liquid diet in preparation for the surgery tomorrow. Hospital just called to confirm. I'm so nervous and pensive and feeling like i'm on the precipice of something amazing!!

We're renting a recliner so I can sleep at night - cause if i sleep in my own bed my 3 year old will CERTAINLY jump on my stomach at night. And we just can't have it.

But seriously??? I'M. SO. HUNGRY. I. CAN'T. THINK. STRAIGHT. All this clear liquid is NOT cutting it. GOSH.

Hey everyone! My surgery is on Friday and I started my liquid diet yesterday. I also went and had all my blood work done..well they have this program where I can see all my blood work results..prob not a good thing because I'm a TERRIBLE worrier!! I saw that my white blood count was elevated a little outside of the normal range and I'm just hoping and praying this isn't going to turn out to exclude me from surgery or become a problem. Also, I feel like an emotional wreck today and that I'm on the verge of losing it!

Hi! Congrats on your surgery! I'm afraid I can't help with the white blood count. I'm sure your doctor would have told if it would be a problem though. If not I would just call them a check with the nurse just to a peace of mind. I feel you on the emotional wreck. It's been a roller coaster for me. I'm on day 12 of my pre op diet and let me tell you it has been so difficult trying to keep track of my emotions. I'm sure it's because my body is getting use to these changes so I'm becoming way more hormonal. My surgery is Thursday and I'm freaking out. Stay strong! It will all be 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? 🤷‍♀️
