February 17th

Need to fast again and hope for no "blizzard" feeling down and out almost like it's a sign I shouldn't have it done. Feel Defeated!

Don't feel that way. Many of us on here had delays, cancelations etc but everything eventually turned out fine. Like me, I had to wait 4 months for surgery after being approved.

Hey all 1/15 ers! How is everyone? I did my checkup yesterday and yes I've only lost 8 lbs, but I'm optimistic and should be off BP medication next week! No more prescriptions for me!

dar81, my date got date got moved back and forth 3 times. I just kept telling myself that it was the universe lining up my dream team. The right surgeon, nurses, anesthesia folks, surgery techs, check-in girls!!! Everybody who was meant to be there and work with me, my dream team all needed to be in place, not sick, back from vacation, well rested, in a good mood, on point etc etc etc 'Dream Team 15!!'

It will happen for you! Your dream team is being assembled as we speak!

@@downsizingdiva,

Team 15, is doing great. First post-op on Monday. I think I'm down 13# but 21 since I decided to really go through with the surgery. I'm sporadically taking my BP meds, I can tell I don't need them. I'm tolerating all foods well except real spicy stuff and raw onions. I'm great at getting the Protein in, but Water and hydration is a challenge. I'm so focused on the protein because I've decided I'm not taking Biotin and I want to keep my hair!! It's pretty. Lol I'm working on my exercise regime. Walking on the treadmill is great but I wanted get outside too Seattle and is about to get REAL wet. I found a Zumba class and a water HIIT class if you can believe it! Ppl are talking about forever diets. I'm tryna find my forever exercise program!!

I gained 2 pounds ????! I am having so much trouble with the protein! I have tried so many flavors and unflavored. I just want to throw up every time. I barely eat anything, and I drink all my fluids. I need to work on meal plans but I don't know where to start. Every time I call my nut she is never in. I am feeling down, and thinking maybe the sleeve is not working on me ????
