All preop assessments and tests will be done mid March. After that, request is submitted to insurance then it's up to them to approve. So if all goes well, late March, or early April. I'm doing my part , the rest depends on others.


You are exactly where I am! All of my stuff is done. I just have my final appointments with the surgeon. I'm hoping to get my insurance submitted April 1st and then get a date from there!

Wishing that all goes according to what and when you want. I've been weighed at every single Drs appt (5 in all), and my weight has a 9 lb difference depending on which scale I get on. I'm going by my new scale at home and I'm happy with that. It's an expensive one that measures bmi, etc. Plus my true weight without clothes and boots is my true weight as far as I'm concerned. ?

      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? 🤷‍♀️
