I have read so much on here and had really wished to connect to someone else having the Sleeve tomorrow. I picked my name because of my hair color and I was a stay at home mom. (Red goddess) anyway, tomorrow is the big day. Today I have been doing the whole colon cleanse thing and on liquid diet. The berry flavored mag. citrate was not bad. So much better than the go litly stuff I had to drink (1 gal) before a colonoscopy. This was a walk in the park. I am very nervous and second guessing myself. At a meeting I attended on post op sleever said he had "buyers remorse". I hear that is common and passes fairly soon yet I still wonder if I could have done it (diet) successfully this time? Tried every diet known including hypnosis yet here I am.

I know what you mean about second guessing yourself. I broke down today and almost quit. A week on liquids really makes me think I could do this on my own. I'm scheduled for June 2nd. We can get through this together.

I was so lucky to have a fast process less than 3 months to get everything done and approved and now im days away and dont know if i can do this I know is a mental game but right now i feel like is kicking my butt.

      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.
