October Buddies wanted



Recommended Posts

I was originally set for November but my apt with my surgeon got moved up to this Wednesday. The scheduler has me in for Oct 6th unless pre op testing reveals any unexpected difficulties. I am excited and I have been wanting an earlier date but now that I have it I am so nervous!

Hi. Nothing set in stone. But I have bought Protein Powder and have been working on different ideas. I am very fortunate that my good friend and her husband have both had the surgery. So they will be helping me out a lot. How about you?

I will be having surgery in Mid-October. I would love to have a buddy - I'm starting to get nervous, but I'm ready to get moving forward.

I'm scheduled for around the 22nd of October. Waiting on psy. evaluation.

Also is anyone else having problems with this mobile app. It keeps freezing up my phone. I have to shut the phone off.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
