Anyone else have pre-surgery nightmares? Had my first one last night - in the dream I forgot my liquid diet the day before. Lol

I keep thinking I will oversleep or not be able to do surgery. It has been such a long wait!

I am still waiting on my surgery (June 22). Getting pretty excited now! I could be in One-Derland - and no longer obese, just overweight - by the end of the month!

I have a history of pulmonary embolisms. I need to be off my blood thinner so they put me on the shots.

My Allergies started acting up. Runny nose, dry cough, sneezing (occasionally). My surgery is Monday 6/20 and I'm worried this would complicate the surgery therefore my surgeon would postpone it. :unsure:

Ugh I worry about congestion too. Best wishes for clear days ahead! My surgery is 21, let's both hope for nationwide low allergens.

I feel the same way. I can't help but worry that after all this, something could screw it up! Ugh this is terrible!!! My surgery is the same day as yours. Hope you feel better and the pollen goes away!

Woo-hoo! Have a healthy, easy surgery!

Mine is Wednesday. Last night it really hit me that I was eating my last solid food for several weeks. I didn't have a food fumeral/binge, but I did have a cup of my favorite food (watermelon) to say goodbye!

      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? 🤷‍♀️
