Hi. Thanks for writing back so quickly. I'm always curious where folks are from. I think it's kinda kinda neat to think of locations. I will be done at West Penn as well. Who did your surgery? I will be done by Dr Eid. April/May.

How are you doing at this point? How was your overall experience?

Hello MommyT01!!!

Welcome! I have not went to any information meetings although I may go to one this month. I'd love to sit and listen to what others have to say. How about you? Have you went to any yet?

I am going to my 3rd visit Jan 7th with the physician assistant, NUT and now the psychologist at this visit. I'm half way!!! 3 more visits after this! Monday I'm having an endoscopy and next week I have a second sleep study to do since they discovered I have apnea???? What area in Pittsburgh are you from? And where will you be having your surgery?

      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? 🤷‍♀️
