I'm hoping my date of Nov. 16th will be okay. I'll be going to Mexico. I originally was scheduled with a different doctor, but due to negative press in abundance lately I've decided to switch my surgeon. I'm really looking forward to November buddies!!

Anyone else feel like the waiting is watching paint to dry? Yesterday I got my hair done and I looked at myself in the mirror and I was so sad at how heavy I am. I Usually love getting my hair done but I just felt like a fat person with good hair. It really hit me hard. I haven't mentioned it to anyone until now. November 30 is so far away.... Even if I start on my own I won't see great results.

Went to my first support group today and it was a waist of time, I guess it was because they had a gust speaker. Did not learn anything at all. Hopefully the next one is better.

Hi everyone. I should be having my surgery in November. I have the last of my 6 dietician appointments on 9/25 then they can submit me to insurance. I cannot wait! It has been a long process!

Woo Hoo!!!! Finally some buddies. My surgery is November 12th. I chose that date because it worked best for taking the two weeks off of work. I already know insurance won't pay for mine so I have chosen a surgeon a friend used in Mexico.

And yes! I am enjoying ALL my favorite foods now. I start my two week liquids right before Halloween.

Here's to better health.....later. :)

where in Mexico are you going?

I think as of now I added everyone! If you didn't get an email invite to the FB page, get back to me :)

      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? 🤷‍♀️
