10 Days until surgery!



Recommended Posts

Just had my final pre-op appointment yesterday and I was so stoked when I stepped on the scale and it said 249lbs.!!! I've been tolerating the liquid diet really good, no headaches or nausea. However, I did have a craving to chew some food...I chose to chew up a popsicle instead. I've come to far to listen to my cravings...not today Satan!!!

HW: 297

CW: 249

SW: We shall see when the 25th comes!

Hi Twin! You look FAB! Congrats on so much weight loss. You're killing it. I'm eager for the 25th to arrive. I don't know about you, but the close date is giving me a huge burst of energy to get stuff done.

Hey there Twinsie!!! Thank you for the compliments. I am so eager for the 25th to get here as well! I've already started going through old clothes and bagging up things that have gotten too big, so that I can give them away!!! I can know practically run up my stairs and remember not long ago I had to walk one step at a time.

Sounds like the same burst of energy pregnant women get before delivery. Doctors call that a Nesting Syndrome. Can we call this a Renovation Syndrome? You know you are going to get your innards remodeled and you want everything controlled in place. That way you can approach this with Peace of Mind. Remember we are proud of each of you, you are our sisters and brothers in a very special way.💜💚❤

It's actually a maxi dress. One of my favorites but, I am definitely willing to part with it when it gets too big lol

Good for you for getting those clothes bagged up. You definitely are feeling the energy too. I'm eager to unbox smaller clothes in the months to come. ONE MORE WEEK!!!!!

      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? 🤷‍♀️
