My surgery is coming up on April 20th - Anxiety kicking in - I feel like it's my first trip to Disney and I'm all in my head.

Same day, same feeling! Although I'm also stressed about this liquid diet and not losing enough weight pre-op - I need to step away from the scale, as it only shows 2 lbs lost in a week. I was hoping to lose 10 in pre-op stage.

Yesssssssssss! Tell me about it!! I'm soooooooo in my head!! I go Monday! 4/17 ... I'm on day 12 down 14 lbs and started thinking why can't I just keep doing this! I'd be happy at 180 🤪 because I know once I slip... That one time I think I'm ok....... and start eating carbs.... and breads will lead me down that addiction slippery slope!!! I already know I can't do it on my own!!!! I've tried EVERYTHING!!! I want a chance with this tool a new small tummy to start over 🤗 I'm going to work hard at it! Feed it only what it needs! Get all my fluids in! Lose as much as I can in this first year and then I might try lil treats here and there. I need to get a hold of this food addiction. 😢

I wish you all the best! 💪🏼🏼🙏🏼♥️

To all of you on your pre-op diet, great job so far and hang in there. I was you 2 weeks ago (had my surgery on 4/6). It feels like forever now, while you are in it, but surgery will be here before you know it. The first few days are hard, but I’m now on day 8 and just finished a 3 mile walk, enjoying the warm night. Everything feels easier now, despite still being in the beginning of the healing stage. Good luck to you all.

So surgery day is tomorrow (17th). Pre-op diet was a breeze but I won’t miss eating salad for a while 😄 Just wanted to say Good Luck to all the other April 17th buddies. I know there’s a few of us. Wishing you all a safe surgery 😊

      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? 🤷‍♀️
