Still looking for people scheduled in March



Recommended Posts

I am scheduled for surgery in March and I have yet to find anybody that is going to be there with me. If you think that you are, or you just want to help me out when my inevitable struggles come, let me know. Really just looking for some support from those who understand what it is I'm going through. Thanks

March is a long way off. You will probably have better luck finding people as the time gets closer. Many people only schedule surgery 2-4 weeks out. Best of luck with your weight loss!

I also hope to be a March sleever. I will finish up my 6 month weight loss attempt for insurance the end of February. Hoping for late March on my birthday. Happy birthday to me!!!

I have decided to take the plunge and get the procedure done by Dr. Ortiz in TJ on March 20th! I am so excited that I can barely sleep at night and focus at work!



Since my insurance won't cover this surgery I will be paying out of pocket for this procedure (thus I have to wait until March to get my bonus). I am so ready for this next chapter of our lives. It is an exciting time and we must be ready for this new chapter!

      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? 🤷‍♀️
