Good Morning Everyone,

Well my surgery is a week away and I am starting to get nervous. I am excited though. I am anxious to being my weightloss journey. My husband said something to me yesterday that really bothered me. He said that he hoped I did not leave him once I lost the weight. Why did he say that to me? I love him. We have been together for 10 years, have 2 beautiful girls.

Was anyone else so nervous before surgery? What did you do or think of to calm you down?

Have a good day everyone!

My husband said the same thing to me. I think they think it's a joke - maybe to make us feel better - like we'll be super models or something. I was nervous, scared, freaked out, guilty, embarrased.... I almost backed out at least 20 times just a few days before surgery (even the day of surgery). Once I got to the hospital it was a little easier. The hospital staff was great. Me and the other girls there that were also having this done had a great time laughing and talking right up til I was wheeled back to the OR. I'm just 10 days out of surgery now and don't feel too bad. I've already lost 11 pounds. Just remember why you wanted to have the surgery in the first place. And, as a friend of mine keeps telling me "Nothing tastes as good as being thin." Good Luck.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
