I am scheduled to have my sleeve done on October 6th (started the process on March 1st, 2015.) I'd love to have a "surgery buddy" who is having the procedure the same day or very close to the date. Anyone interested?

I am leaving tomorrow on a two week hike on the superior trail. Updates when I get back. Keep strong!

Went to my first post-op with the surgeon. I am down 9 lbs since my 10/7 surgery and my labs say I am not getting enough water. I admit, I have been drinking my liquids and still sipping my water.

I was sleeved on 10/9

Day of surgery I weighed 222.2

1 week post op I weighed 213.4

Down 8.8 lbs in 1 week. Amazing. I hope all of you are doing good as well. I would love to hear everyone's weekly loss.

I bought a solar battery charger for my cell phone and I get some reception on hill tops. Needs to be a sunny day to get enough charge. Bears have been active I have been told but I have not come across any. Nights have been cold but days are warm. My energy level is low and getting enough water intake is a challenge. Here is a picture from yesterday. Hope you all are doing well . How is Marcia doing?

@@retrieverguy This is my type of hike. Beautiful day...beautiful scenery. Only bear I saw was a guy running that is preparing for no shave November! Lol

miss you smarty pants!

I am still on hold- called my cardiologist this morning and they hopefully will call back on a date for my PET Scan. Did receive another approval from my insurance company to have the surgery on November 24th. Hopefully everything will be resolved by them. Looks like folks are doing really well! Great Job, everyone!
