Hi fellow September Sleevers!

I've been taking some vacation time and relaxing a bit before hitting the pre surgery diet and then surgery on September 9th!

I am nervous, and excited.

I've found this pre surgery diet (870 calories) a B*T@H!!!

Over the past couple days I have found that lemon Water (which I actually enjoy) helps curb my appetite. I have Jello cups 25 calories if I need a snack, a Protein Shake mid day or mid morning and then a Lean Cusine or similar meal for dinner.

Yesterday, I was super busy at work so no time for lunch, at dinner I had a chicken and liguine Lean meal and put the food in green leaf lettuce leaves like a wrap. It was actually pretty good. That was 270 calories. I seem to be doing well.

My pre surgery appointment with the Dr. is August 28th, she wants to see that I've lost 10 to 15 pounds. YIKERS!

How is everyone else doing that is pre surgery for September 2015?

I just love this group.

Each time I am here I learn more and have come to know that I am not the only one. Which was sometimes my thinking.

I can't wait to stop avoiding mirrors!

      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? 🤷‍♀️
