Hey guys!!!

August 30th Sleever here. I know much later than most on this stream. I go for pre-op and diet starts the 16th. (13 Days!!! WHOA!!) It is starting to feel much more real.

Hi there! I'm August 25th so we are in a similar boat! Definitely starting to feel real. I'll be starting pre-op on the 13!

Lapband revision to sleeve completed! My surgery went well, I came home today-on Stage 1-clear SF liquids...can't wait for Stage 2! Good luck everyone!! BTW dont weigh your self immediately post-op, they pump you with so much IV fluids you will likely weigh more than you did pre-op.

Hey August Sleevers!!! I just had my hiatal hernia repaired and gastric sleeve surgery yesterday, I was discharged from the hospital today. I'm in some pain, I'm waiting for the meds to kick in. I get full rather quickly drinking Water. Any advise because I'm worried about getting my water and Protein intake each day.

I'm doing great, had a lot of pain immediately after but they got it under control pretty quickly. No nausea, meds are taking care of the pain. Hopefully home tomorrow! Thanks for asking how it went.

Right now just chillin' in a recliner watching tv and sipping my Water [emoji2]

Good luck to everyone having surgery this week! Mine is Tuesday. The preop diet is killing me which has made me truly ready for the surgery. Sorry to be a whiner lmao but I'm so ready for them to cut my stomach off so I'm not this starving all the time!

      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? 🤷‍♀️
