Anyone having their sleeves being done on Feb.14,2018? Are you nervous? I'm guessing I would have to start my 14-day pre-op diet at the end of the month on the 31st? I also have about 3 pre-op appointments to go to... I'm thinking about taking 11 days off.. Would that be enough or too many days off?.. hmmm...

My surgery date is February 12th. I see my surgeon on Feb 1 and he should tell me when I'll be starting my pre-op diet. Last time I met with him he told me I was fine as far as weight loss.

My surgery is scheduled for February 15th. My doctor sent my diet yesterday that I will start on Feb 1st! I am nervous but extremely excited! I think I am going to take 2-3 weeks off.. Have not decided yet.

I still have yet to decide how many days I will take off. I have my pre-op diet paper already, I think I’m supposed to start on the 31st.

I'm RNY, not sleeve, but I'm 2/15 :) I told my husband we'll have to have a romantic Protein Shake dinner the night before since it's Valentine's Day :lol: I think I might also treat myself to a massage or something relaxing!

I am 15th Feb :-) can’t wait. We should keep each other updated with progress. I would love to stay in touch with people having surgery on or near the same date. X

Is there a way on here to create a chat group for people with the same surgery date? It would be comforting to know I have a group of buddies I can chat to who are going through the same thing at the same time.x

I'm not sure. You can probably create a thread for it.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
