Right? So excited. I have three days of liquid diet before surgery. Other than that I am trying to get my house in order....I work 2 jobs so always busy, and want to make sure I don't have to worry about it all when I am off.

This is exciting all of us in May. Mine is the fifteenth. I'm preparing my house for the full liquid diet so I can have a variety of things to try.

May 2nd. liquid diet starts tomorrow. I am dreading that piece and am getting quite anxious. The Dr. I see has us do 3 Protein Shakes a day and then 3oz of lean meat and veggies for dinner. I can't find a Protein Shake that I like but I'm just going to use the ones that are "okay". I am also traveling for work all of next week so that is going to make it even harder.

I did pre-op testing today. They said no news is good news.

I started my liquid diet today. I use Allmax Quickpro and I have the slim fast Protein as well as my isofemme powder so I can make my own shakes. I had two shakes so far today, a sugar free Jello, and some homemade chicken broth and Pacific organic Mushroom broth that I found very satisfying. All that and I'm only at 380 calories, I have 800 to go, I guess I'll have another shake...lol.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
