Recommended Posts

I am unfortunately joining you lot for jan sleeve.

My surgery was for dec 18 but I got called on dec 17 to say it was cancelled (after 4 long liquid only weeks...)

So I got moved to... jan 22nd. Another 5 week to be really strict but no more liquid diet,

So in total I will have 9 pre-op diet week. On a positive note I am loosing weight. presently lost 22lbs since nov 20th.

My Surgery will be end of January or beginning of Feb. I will find out on Jan. 9th when it gets scheduled. I lowered my deductible for this surgery. I am excited but the more forums I read the scarier it becomes. I think we all handle it differently and I hope my body does well!

My sleeve is set for January 2nd. It's Christmas Day and I plan to stick to my pre-surgery diet even though it will be hard.




You are not alone. My surgery date is also 1/2/18. I am trying very hard to stick with the plan! Good luck to you!

My surgery is scheduled for Jan. 9th. It has been a long process. BCBS California required six months of medical weight management, plus the usual EKG stress test, psychological evaluation, endoscopy, colonoscopy, etc.

I get tired just thinking of all the hoops I’ve had to jump through. But we got approval and I am scheduled at last!

      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? 🤷‍♀️
