Day 3 of the week of liquid before surgery and I feel miserable! 😩
I just completed day 4. 4 more days of full liquids then 2 days of Clear Liquids. I’m so over it but I know that all of this is worth it. Just want the headaches and dizziness to go away 😩

Since I grew up in the midwest I believe in Indian Summer. And now in Colorado it's just damn hot in September. So yeah...September is still Summer!


Indian summer is a Midwest thing? I thought that was an everywhere thing because we acknowledge it here in Connecticut as well, lol

Not so much that it is a Midwest thing, just that it is not a Colorado thing because it's always hot here. lol

I am scheduled for a gastric sleeve on July 3 and still wondering if I’m making the right decision, but my knees are giving out so I need to act fast.

I’m on day 3 of my all Protein Shake diet. 11 more to go. Sigh!

Man, I feel for you guys that have to do the long post-op diets. As we've said several times, come here a complain and b***h and moan all you want when you're hangry. :)

Day four of pre op diet... Actually felt hunger pains. Tried to keep myself busy and away from food, but when you work in dieter's hell some days are more trying.

I finished up day 4 as well! The hardest thing is having to cook for someone else or just be around the food knowing you can’t nibble at it. I’m not even hungry, I just want to chew something so bad 😩 hang in there! We are almost there, and then we will have to force these shakes and liquids down

      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? 🤷‍♀️
