Surgery date that is. ;) June 4!! I got approved by Cigna less than 24 business hours! (Filed on Friday at noon. Approval Monday morning.) I was so surprised! Now I am finally anxious because it is real! It was just sort of an idea up to this point. 4 weeks from today - I am sure it will go by fast...

I got my date to by Oxfords. My surgery its June 15. I'm excited!! Can't wait. I was able to do it sooner but due to the three weeks of after surgery that we have to take off. I chose that date. It's so real now. Soon I will have to start the liquid diet.

Hey! I got my date too! June 17. It's a Wednesday, so barring complications, I should be out by Friday or Saturday. I'm a revision from band to RNY, doc says he does his in one shot most of the time. I hope I'm one of those times. Then I got hubby for the weekend, yeah!

I CANT WAIT!!!!!!

I just got mine today which is June 15th. I had to wait for a few months to get mine, because my

daughter had gallbladder surgery. This is the best mother's day gift I could ask for. Now it's

just a flurry of pre-op testing and getting clearance from my drs. two weeks before surgery. Wish-

you all the best of luck!

Sounds good to me. Even though I am nervous, I know I'm doing the right thing.

Yes, we will do great! Just wondering how I will feel on seeing my dr. on June 4th after being on the liquid diet since the 1st. Hope I have the energy to go out, lol.

I know we'll all do great. As long as we follow the rules and question, question, question we should be fine.

My surgeon has only put me on the liquid diet the day before surgery. Maybe, just maybe cuz I've lost 37 lbs since I first went in to tell them I want the revision. IDK.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
