Recommended Posts

That's exciting! My date is 6/28 and I start my pre op on 6/14!! I have to make a shopping list! Anything you recommend greatly appreciated [emoji6]




My pre-op diet seems to be much different from others, I am strictly meat and veggies. No dairy or carbs. If you have the same type of diet, let me know, and I'll be happy to tell you what I did! Good luck!!

Sweet! Mine seems a little different than most as well! Breakfast and lunch is Protein Shakes. Two Protein Snacks can be bars, yogurt, whatever, and dinner is 6oz meat with non start veggie!

This was basically mine too. I was so glad it wasn't all liquid.

Get the sodium free broth packets. They are a life saver. They breakup the Protein Shakes with flavor but don't make you gain/retain weight/water because here isn't any salt. They come in chicken and beef and they're in the Soup isle. IMG_8380.PNG

They're less than $2 per box but you do need 2 packets because of the lack of salt.

I am on my last day of preop. I cant believe I will have made it 15 days with no "food."

I go in at 4:30am. I hope to br home by 4pm. I am ready to get the healing started.

Prayers for sure! My pre-op appt is on the 6th, so I imagine that is when I start mine. My surgery is set for the 16th. Pending my insurance.

That's very similar to what mine was. But I only got 4 oz meat.

Wow. I Had to stay overnight at the hospital. But I'm glad about that. I wasn't in any shape to be at home. On the up side, I was the first to go home of the four of us that had surgery that day.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
