My surgery date is January 7th too. I'm excited, nervous, anxious yet looking forward to it and scared all at the same time. The pre op diet was supposed to be started on Christmas Eve so that didn't happen nor did it the next day but I am faithfully following it now. Nine days to go!

Surgery is one week from today and I have really got to buckle down with this preop diet. Cheated a bit yesterday and I know I'm only hurting myself. Hard to believe this time next week it will be done!

If I never have anything chocolate or strawberry flavored again it'll be too soon :-/ lol. I'm doing OK, I'm on day 5 of 10 day pre-op liquid diet. I can have fat free cottage cheese, yogurt, & sugar free Popsicles too, and broth. I find myself getting excited about some broth & cottage cheese, lol.

Ya I feel the same way about chocolate. And I get so happy when I get to have my one meal a day... but today... I didn't want anything. I've never felt like this. I think my body just gave up to the diet...finally

      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? 🤷‍♀️
