I am trying to do this without cheating-it's a challenge, I'll be honest! I just keep telling myself it's only "x" more days...I know it's going to make the surgery easier for me & Dr. too so that helps...but the worst is being around the family when they eat ....I know I can do this, just need to convince my brain and stomach!!

Mine is Dec 14. I haven't been super excited or worried. Anyone else like that?

Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Yes! I am going to get sleeved on the 16th. It doesn't seem really REAL yet. Im not overly anything about it. I hope it changes. I want to be excited and happy!

My sleeve is scheduled for the 21st, like several others. I was wondering how other 21sters are holding up with the preop diet. Today was my first day.

I know different surgeons use different diets, but the one I am following calls for three Protein shakes a day (30g protein/1g sugar) and unlimited broth and Crystal Light type drinks, and Decaf teas. I do have a cup of coffee in the morning with a splash of vanilla Protein shake and Splenda.

I followed it to a T today, but it was hard when I made dinner for my husband. I went in the other room and drank some ginger miso broth from Trader Joe's while he ate.

I had my sleeve yesterday, along with hiatal hernia repair. Going home this afternoon. I have..NO...pain from surgery. What I do have is a back full of arthritis that was killing me immeriatly after surgery (probably from lying flat which I can't normally do) so I have spent my hosputal time in the reclinder instead. Much better. Just taking Tylenol because my doctor insists. No nausea yet. No anything, really.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
