It's finally here...SURGERY DAY today!



Recommended Posts

My time has finally come. I'm packed and ready to leave for the hospital in a few hours to have my band to sleeve revision surgery later today. I'm excited, but also quite nervous (which I'm sure is normal).

If you would, please keep me in your thoughts and prayers.

Thanks everyone!!

I'm so excited for you! You have been such a support for me and others.

I did mine Tuesday and had a rough one and a half day due to fever. I can't believe how well I am doing! No nausea or not much pain. My husband even commented!

I can't wait to hear from you! Keep us all posted on how you feel :).

Good luck sweetie!!

I just weighed and took measurements and I have lost 18 pounds and 19 inches (from waist, hips, thighs, knee, calf, chest, upper arm, forearm, and "bust") since I started the 2-week pre-op diet!! So excited to start seeing the scale moving down, down, DOWN!!!

band to sleeve revision surgery today

@@Fatty McFatster

sorry you had problems with your band :wacko:

in my "biased" opinion - the sleeve is the greatest!!!

having revision surgery shows your determination

you are brave enough to go through MORE surgery

you want to get it right/successful with weight loss

you are starting all over

most of the rules with lapband are same/similar to sleeve???

you are a winner, but i'll save you a seat on the "loosers" bench!!! ;)

good luck

speedy recovery

      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.
