Hi everyone! I just wanted to check in. Today I had my pre-op appointment. Did labs, signed a bunch of papers and was given my pre-op diet instructions. Time is fast approaching because it seems like Tuesday, October 14th will be here before I know it! I'm sending happy calming vibes to everyone!!!

I'm right behind you????

I'm scheduled for 10/27! Counting down......

I'm really now wanting to have a lot of people around - my daughter will be with me the first day. Who are you having with you for surgery and post op recovery. Should I have my mom come in - I'm single.

I'm scheduled for the 22nd..My husband will be with me until I come out of surgery and walk the halls...I probably won't want anyone to stay over night..this way I can rest..lol

Wow! That is awesome. How are you feeling?

  • I am going to have my husband there for the surgery. My dad is coming up for the afternoon and my friend is taking off the next couple of days to be with me. I still haven't decided if I'm telling people outside of my family and close friends. I'm having my gall bladder removed also so I might just tell about that for a while.

You are so prepared. I have some things but I'm not that prepared. I'm going to make a list of what I still need and pick those things up tomorrow. Excited and nervous and hungry lol.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
