Thank you @@rking

Hello and good luck to you. Today was by 2nd visit to the doctor and I approximately got the date; it might be on 13 January. I'm excited and nervous all at same time. I'm having the sleeve.

January isn't far off!! Good luck to you also and keep me informed how it goes, wishing you the Best!

I have my script for my bloodwork and need to get it done this week since my next apt is next Thursday! I'm running out of time! I met with the cardiologist and had an ekg and they're scheduling me for a stress test and a home sleep study. Hopefully my insurance cooperates. I like the medical team so that helps. Your a little further along than I am if your going in January! Are you super excited? Lebanon huh! Your far away from me! My friends husband is from there! Great guy.

Just had my first consult on Wednesday. I will probably have surgery in March or April.

You are going to do great! I hear they sedate you for it. I've never had one! I go back this Thursday the 3rd for my second monthly apt. Will meet with everyone again. Gotta get my bloodwork done asap so it's done and back for that apt!

I'm new to forum and am at the same place you are. I begin my 12 week nutrition classes on Dec 1.

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

      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? 🤷‍♀️
