Hi Mike let's do this. An accountability partner is just what will get us to our goals. Still interested? What date shall we begin? Online only or calls as well? Let's decide initially on what we need from each other to be specifically accountable for. Diet, exercise, encouragement? My name is Annette

I had dr Heider... I had surgery on the 26th. Still a lot of drainage and some pain at incision sites.

Oh awesome! Did he do a good job? Is there anything I should know? I’m supposed to go to my pre-op meeting tomorrow but no one told me the time. If you know what times they do that, it would be super helpful to me since I can’t get ahold of the office staff.
Did they set up your appointments for the endoscopy and stuff at that meeting? Michelle hasn’t told me anything and I’m do for surgery the 10. I’m a wee bit put out about that and it’s making me reconsider having the surgery so quickly.

Check your email they sent me all my appointments in an email. He did a good job ... I had Lapband removed and a sleeve done so not sure if that’s why I’m having more pain than I remember in past. My drain is still getting a lot too. I go back on Tuesday .

      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? 🤷‍♀️
