Just saw a number on the scale I haven't seen in years...



Recommended Posts

I've been fighting the same three or four pounds for a couple of weeks now and was starting to get discouraged. I went for another post op visit a few days ago and the PA determined I needed another fill (my fifth). Today I stepped on the scale and could hardly believe my eyes.

Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome me to...

ONEDERLAND!!!

I must have weighed myself twenty times to be sure (my scale is stupid), but I finally made it! I thought I would jump up and down or burst into tears but instead I just gave my fiance a thumbs up and sat right down to post my victory. It's been a long time coming but it makes it all that much sweeter!

HURRAY, JENN!!!! Great feeling, isn't it? I've done the same thing the whole journey. Every time I see a new number, I say, "No, the scale did NOT just say that. I gotta see that again!"

WOOOOHOOOOOOO! It is a fantastic feeling. Be proud, be very proud! And I too do the same with my scale. No matter what the number is, if it is lower than the last time, I get on it at least three times. Yes, I am a scale *****...but alas, I LIKE the numbers it is putting out (except for as of late, but I am battling nonsmoking lbs which is quite ok with me) CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!

      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.
