Here ciomes little Frustr8 singing as she goes in and limping. as comes out, holding,onto her son's arm and flinching,with every step. Oh the first week of September will be very memorable in my and maybe everyone else's life.😰😪😪

Just wanted to post some encouragement for everyone starting the preop diet. I’m on day 10 and I promise it does get better. I’m still hungry but I don’t have headaches and feel crappy. My surgery is in 5 days so that is motivation to stay strong! Good luck to everyone in surgery today!

I'm on Day # 7 and I'm having a Why Me attack? Once my anti-body antibodies build up will I move happily toward the goals again?👸🌺😪

@rosawise@me didn't your husband just have his surgery either the 6th or 7th, and you posted from his room? Now you have been given a August 21st surgery date yourself? Busy times for your family, maybe you'll be able to prop each other up as you heal!👩&👨

Good luck on your surgery! Mine's coming up next week too. I'm on day 7 of the diet and it's not as bad as it once was. When I see food I know tastes good, though, im like "damn, you look delicious, I miss you.." but I don't eat it. I know there's a light at the end of the tunnel. But I'd be lying if I said I wasn't dying for an espresso from Starbucks and a big, juicy steak right about now lol

      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? 🤷‍♀️
