Tomorrow is my big day...



Recommended Posts

:) I'm so excited, nervous and anxious! I can't believe it's finally here. My first surgery consult was 4/17 and the surgery is 7/16 ~ 3 months. Although, I have been considering the lap band for the past 4 years.

I'm so excited that my process did not take as long and now I can have a new beginning. My arrival time at the hospital is 10 am and I will stay overnight. I pray for a smooth surgery with very little pain....:wub:

Congratulations on your surgery. I know how nervous you are my surgery is tomorrow also. I'm supposed to be there at 7am. I'm excited and nervous all at the same time. Can't find anything to keep my attention today. Just keep pacing and walking waiting for the day to be over....lol. I can't believe how fast it's all happened. My first surgery consult was 5/20. At that time they said surgery would probably be in July. Then that seemed so far away, now it's here and I can't believe it. Good luck with your surgery!!:wub:

Thank you all for the well wishes! Overall I'm doing well just a lot of tenderness and pain were the port is located. Not sure how long to expect that but I hope it goes away soon. Like the old saying, "No pain, no gain". :smile:

      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? 🤷‍♀️
