My table manners have gone to hell. I swear, I don't even want to eat at the table with me. I cant take part in the conversation because by the time I am finished chewing what I wanted to say is irrelevant. Plus I chew on stuff and determine it to be too fibrous, tough, etc. and have to take it out of my mouth. Then my stomach makes weird gurgling noises and I have to burp repeatedly so I can eat my food. *Sigh*, my poor southern lady grandmother would just have a fit if she could see me now. Of course she would be happy about the weight I have lost!:) (It is a pretty good trade, I just feel sorry for those I have to eat with)

You can eat with me anytime. I'm deaf so the "gurgling and burping" wouldn't bother me in the least!:ohmy: As for having to spit out the fibrous stuff I'm sure you use a napkin for that. I have problems eating with folks that use their forks as shovels! And then proceed to talk with their mouths full. My ex FIL used to think it was okay to pass gas at the dinner table!:)

      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? 🤷‍♀️

      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.
