Diana .... I feel the same way about letting them all wonder :) just got back from my nutrition appointment .... It went great . I lost 10 lbs which was fine ...I see her one more time . Then just wait for the call for them to schedule my appointment with the surgeon . Can't wait to be where you are at and just waiting for your surgery :)

Thats great! I'm sure she will sign off at your next visit and you'll be on to meeting Dr. Johnson! As long as all of your other paperwork is in, it should take about a week for them to give you a call to schedule your pre-op with him and then a surgery date!!! Dr. O'Malley could have gotten me in for surgery the week following our consult, but if you are on birth control, you need to be off of that for 4 weeks prior due to blood clots. I would've stopped taking much sooner had I known that :) The count down is killing me though....I just want it to be here already!!!

I took about 6 months. He is a very good surgeon. The hospital stay was excellent the whole nursing staff is great. He has a very good team from his office to the team that he use in the hospital. When he comes to see u after your surgery he brings in the whole team that he use to help him perform the surgery. They come every day till u leave.

      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.
