I'm going in March. Who are you going through? I know I'll have the jitters right before but now I just want the time to pass quickly! Best of luck to you! Keep us posted please!

I had a mini bypass in Mexico in Nov. (Bariatric Pal MX and Dr. Illan were amazing!) I was shocked how smooth everything went- very efficient. The hospital and hotel were very nice, the medical care exceeded 95% of my medical care in the states (and I've had a LOT of medical care due to MS the last 15 years). Jitters are completely normal, but you've got this! For me, the pre-op diet (and giving up sugar, carbs, and Diet Coke) was a lot harder for me than surgery and recovery. Distract yourself as much as possible until you go. Let us know how it goes!!

      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? 🤷‍♀️
