Feb 7th Surgery....anyone else and where?



Recommended Posts

Ok...so, it's getting real. I have completed 1 week of the pre-op diet. It's going well and have dropped 13lbs. Tonight I tried a different Soup and totally regret it. I feel like my taste buds are already changing.

So, this time next week. I will almost be landing in San Diego and the next morning, off to see Dr. Illan. Can't wait!

I'm on for Feb 6th. Pre-op diet has been minimal for me. From reading here that is weird. Only 1 Meal Replacement and liquids the day before. Super exciting! We're gonna do great!

A couple of us are sleeved now! Yay! To the beginning of a new life. It's not often we get a reset button. I had surgery Monday and was home b Tuesday afternoon.

I'm really struggling getting my fluids and Protein in today. Not gonna be too hard on myself because my tiny tummy is healing.

How's everybody doing?

Congrats!!!! How did you do your first week? Did you have any cheats or moments of weakness? Today is my day 1 of liquids and it feels like the day that is never going to end! Surgery date is 2/15!

I was lucky. I lived on Protein Shakes and pureed/chopped wonton Soup. I did well and lost 22lbs in the 14 days.

I did have a food funeral before the liquid diet. But I didn't allow myself to cheat in fear I would screw up the liver shrinkage and surgery co u lent be completed.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
