February 16th is the day????



Recommended Posts

Hello all, February 16th the day I am to change my life for the better!

I am getting nervous and really starting to realize how much I miss eating food now that I'm on the pre-opt diet. I never knew I could smell everything????

The first three days of this diet was extremely difficult????????

Considering I was a yo-yo with my weight and eating habits this should be a breeze but it is a struggle ????

I need to really change my relationship with food????

I can't wait for the big day, so I think I'm so nervous about everything

Hi Matida!

I understand your feelings! I will start my preop diet Wednesday.....the day my husband is getting sleeved ????! My date is Feb 25. I am starting to realize the importance of this forum and possibly the support group that my hospital offers in getting past some potential issues. You mentioned needing to change your relationship with food - that is exactly what my husband and I are talking about.....food has been our social existence for EVER! It's time to develop other relationships and unthinkin we can all help each other with that! Best of luck to you. Keep us posted on your surgery and how you are doing!! ????????

      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.
