Got my date: January 21st



Recommended Posts

I am once again excited as I was yesterday when I received the approval. The Insurance coordinator called me this afternoon and gave me the date of January 21st. All of a sudden, I am so nervous.

Any other January 21st sleeves? I would love to support each other during this process!

Yay! So exciting. We are a day apart. I was told to start my pre-op diet on Jan. 7th. We can do this.

My insurance company called today I'm approved my dates the 26th and im so happy and nervous and yeah all emotions. I have a 2 week preop diet ahead of me. I feel like I'm more afraid of that then actual surgery. Has anyone else felt this way?!

Congratulations! I am nervous one minute, then the next I am wishing this week and next would speed by. I started my pre-op diet early because I knew I had gained a few pounds over the holiday. I'm really supposed to start this Wednesday. However I am already down 6 lbs. I have 8lbs to go. So that is the only thing that keeps me focused and not stressing or having real anxiety about the 21st. Oh, and of course reading all the posts in the forum everyday.

It is very exciting though. I still haven't mustered up enough courage to take some before pics.

      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? 🤷‍♀️

      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.
