I left out that I am doing the sleeve. I have another weigh in Dec 1 where I must have lost 6 more pounds, then I start my 2 week liquid diet where I must lose at least 10 more. A bit nervous given that I am already pretty much existing on Protein bars and shakes with rather slow weight loss. That said, I'm very excited!

Oh wow. My next appointment is on 12/14 and I also have my PreOp for the hospital that day as well. I havent had weight loss requirements set but I have been incorporating a Protein shake at Breakfast and 2 high Protein meals. I am trying to eliminate snacking and the drinking after I eat I tend to get dry mouth while eating but they say i need to chew longer to build more saliva.... its hard work but I know in the end it will be worth it! Good luck on your appointment!

That must be the wonderful not to have to stress about it every day. I started at 376 and am at 335 now. I never used to but now I hate the scale and food is the enemy at this point. Whatever is lost is never enough. But it's all for the best. I have made immense changes if only I could get my body to cooperate on my surgeon's schedule. I have pre admission testing on the 12th and another weigh in the 16th to make sure I've met my weight loss during the two week liquid diet of 4 slim fast a day.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
