May 1st!

Having gastric sleeve. Dr. said 1 to 2 nights in hospital. I laughed and said I'm usually a 2 nighter! But, we shall see! 20 more days! Whoop whoop!

Yes! I feel you on that. My hubby also says dumb things like he doesn't want my body to be mismatched or for me to have a big head. I told him that losing this weight and gaining confidence is more important to me than anything. I have also been big for most of my life. I have a countdown on my dry erase board here at work, 34 days till surgery!

Do not let anyone or anything distract you! This is for you, and unfortunately some people either don't get it or are just insecure of the amazing transformation that's about to happen. Do not change your mind or opinion about this. What you are about to do is transform your life to a healthy life. You will feel amazing! You will look amazing! You will be able to do all the things you weren't able to do before! Its SO worth it! Trust in your surgeon that you are in great hands. They have done thousands of these procedures and can do them with their eyes 👀 closed. Hope I am not being too forceful here but I've seen what this surgery has done for my sister who was hopeless a year ago and 2 of my friends who had it done recently. Keep your head up high, stay focused and let others know that their anxiety is not needed right now. Best of luck to you all! My surgery is May 2nd and I couldn't possible be any more excited. 🙌🏻

I've heard it all. "You shouldn't get the surgery," "You don't need it, you're not that big," "You should try this diet," etc...

what happens if I come to my day of surgery and they weigh me and I am just under the weight that qualifies me for the surgery will they deny me the surgery. The reason I ask is because I am right on the edge of qualifying so I have to weigh myself daily and make sure I am eating enough to stay in the qualifying range. I get sleeved May 9.

I worry about being slightly over my goal

Sent from my SM-G955U using BariatricPal mobile app

Same here. I gained back a few pounds after meeting a goal weight. My surgeon said not to worry about it and that I'd definitely lose it during the 10 day cleanse diet.

      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? 🤷‍♀️

      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.
