Not to much longer for you. I remember how excited and nervous I was the last two weeks before my surgery. Hopefully time passes quickly for you and you will take your seat on the losers bench☺️

I had my surgery on May 15th. Monday will be 8 weeks and I have lost 23lbs. I weighed 233 in January and I lost 25 lbs pre-op down to 208. I am losing a little slow, but with my lower BMI it is normal. I am losing inches and I feel great!

I am excited for you!

July 31 is my Day and I can't wait I just want to be able to cross my legs yall

It'll be here before you know it! I can cross my legs for the most part but prefer not too. I am always reminded of blood circulation being cut off and spider veins for some reason. Lol. I do cross them from time to time though. Happy you're at the end, you'll be crossing soon. You having the sleeve?

July 31 is my surgery day, too. I've been on a practice diet since April 14, and have been on a very low calorie diet since June 19. This diet is mostly Protein Shakes and one lean & green meal. Some days are tougher than others, but it has been fun to feel the weight start to come off.

I'm nervous, though.

Prayers to you all. The beginning can be difficult with some days of uncertainty, but it's worth it. Remember everyone's recovery and progress is different. Monitor what you eat, how much Fluid you intake, and how much you workout. Make adjustments as needed. Remember extreme workouts is not always good. I read that alot of people workout 6 days a week, eat less than 1000 calories a day, etc. Which theres noting wrong with that, its just may not be the right course for everyone. Ive changed my routine and diet a few times since my surgery and thank GOD ive continue to be successful. When I stalled I adjust, when I have some type of difficulties I analyze whats going on and adjust. At 7 weeks I workout maybe 3 times a week for an hr, and I try to consume less than 50g of carbs and at least 100g of Protein. I think the most important things to remember is High Protein and fluids, low carbs, walk, sip slowly, and make adjustments as needed.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
