Tomorrows the day!



Recommended Posts

By this time tomorrow, 9/28/15, I will be out of surgery and sleeved. I'm trying really hard to not be nervous. The surgery itself does not concern me too much but the recovery is the part I'm not a fan of. My family is very supportive and my cabinet is stocked with what I'll need so I'm sure all will be fine. I'm just ready to be on the other side and be on the losers bench!

Best of luck to you. It will be over before you know it. I am six weeks out and I can't believe it. It's the best thing I've done for my health.

Good luck to you all!!

You are going to be so happy- this is by far the best thing I have ever done for myself!

The first couple of days are going to be a bit tough (gas pains!!) But you will be feeling fantastic in a few days.

CONGRATS!!!

Good luck everyone!! I am one week post op and still can't believe it! I was a nervous wreck about my surgery and wasn't even 100% certain that I wasn't gonna chicken out at the last minute due to anxiety!! But honestly I wish I could have calmed myself because it really just wasn't that bad. My worst memory is having to drink that disgusting contrast Fluid. I will be thinking of everyone and hoping u all have smooth transitions:)

Well I am officially one day post op now. I was pretty much a wreck yesterday morning on the way to check in at the hospital but I just pushed through and it hasn't been bad at all. I've been a bit sick at my stomach but not bad. The worst pain is getting in and out of the bed. So I am hopeful for the future now. I'd love to hear from any of you that just got sleeved as well to see how your doing as well.

      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.
