Hikerchik,

My surgery is @ 9Am on the 17th. What time is yours?

I am staying at the Hampton Inn on East Cottnwood Drive.

I am flying home on Friday @ 3:25.

What's ur schedule??

Who is coming with you??

My son is coming in Tueday night from LAX to spend the 24 hrs after surgery with me. A friend of mine is flying into

Denver with me and staying with her brother. They are both flying back Thursday for work reasons. I am flying home Fri.

I am so excited. I can't wait!!!:sad_smile:

Are you a hiker now?? Or plan to be in the future??

I would love to hike, but am too heavy right now to hike much.

Spent a few days in Sedona, Az a couple of years ago and hiked alittle. It was fantastic.

If you're having surgery at Crown Pointe Surgery Center in Parker Hospital, then yes, the Hampton Inn is only 2 miles from the hospital. If you get stuck at stoplights, it's at most a 5min drive. They also offer a medical discount.

I'm doing great! Recovery was a breeze, and I just flew back to Denver on Friday for my first fill. Everything is moving along quite well! :biggrin:

      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? 🤷‍♀️
