February 2016 sleevers?



Recommended Posts

I went to sleep at 8:30 last night after a hot bubble bath, a Protein shake, and preparing Soup for tonight's meal. My husband has taken over the kids homework (we usually work in tandem) and making dinner for the 3 of them.

I work for a company that buys groceries and we got some samples in of Quest Protein powders (individual packs and different packaging) that will hit the shelves end of February. They have a salted caramel is simply the best. I wish it was available now. I can't hardly stomach strawberry powder because of the smell. I am definitely going to enjoy having some Soup tonight.

I walk with friends 1 mile in the morning and 1 mile in the afternoon and I find myself not being able to keep up. I sure hope the tiredness ends soon. That's the worst part of this diet, well that and the lack of coffee!

Only 13 more days to go!

First day of the pre-op diet, I am so excited to start. I know it might be a struggle at times but I know I can do it. I weighed and measured myself to track my progress and am tracking my food in myfitnesspal (I've used the app forever.) The day of surgery I will repeat the process so I can track my progress.

A little shock this A.M. as Paloma called me from the hospital saying my driver would be there in 15 minutes. Turns out when I rescheduled my original appointment they forgot to cancel the fiirst one, oops.

Thank you! Sore all over like I got beat up but stomach-wise? Pretty great! Just sampled my dinner tray - chicken broth, sugar free Popsicle, lime green Jello and strawberry-kiwi Protein Shake. First time I've been awake to eat the broth hot lol. Just little bites though. They told me the Protein is most important so I saved it for last since I'm going to actually consume all of it.

So excited for all of you guys though. It's surreal to actually have gotten it done!

Third day on diet so much better. I went to bed around 9ish last night and woke up this morning around 6:00a.m. I usually go to sleep around 11pm and wake up at 5:30, so my body must have needed the rest. I had a shake for Breakfast and I am eating a Subway salad for lunch with lemon and a little balsamic on the side.

The preop diet gets a little easier. I have had headaches from the caffeine withdrawal but they are getting better, and I wasn't as tired this morning.

      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.
