April 6th. Finished all my pre-op appointments today. Starting my liquid diet on Monday. The nurse who did my pre-op lab work had the sleeve (same surgeon) in August, and she looked great. She really eased my mind about everything, and shared her first-hand experience. I'm ready!

I am! Going to Brigham and Womens. Dr. David Spector. He is incredible. Staff is outstanding....can't say enough about how positive the program has been. Message me if you want more info!

That's awesome! I was choosing between the Brigham (my mom works there) and emerson hospital. I ultimately chose emerson because of the program and I know a few people who have gone through it. So exciting! The program at the brigham was obviously very impressive and you know you are in such good hands there.

April 9th! Can't wait but also nervous about having surgery for the first time in my life (I'm 46)

I'm 46 as well! April 18 is my surgery date in Mexico. :)

      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.
