Not a good week 242 this morning up 3 pounds from last week. Between eating a bunch of crap this week, too much partying on the weekend, the flu and a gout attack it has been a pretty bad month. Not only that but I haven't met any of my other goals for the month. Oh well no use looking back, time to get on track for the "It's a Brand New Year Challenge" next month.

I'm at 243! I remained the same this week, which is really quite an accomplishment considering how utterly difficult it has been. My county job has closed its doors and we are transitioning our agency to a private company, so stress has been sky high! There has been baby showers, Christmas parties, Christmas cookies.... you name it! And I have been guilty of some indulgence. So even though I am not posting a loss this week, I feel it was quite a successful week. I am off from Christmas to New Year, so I hope to get some good exercise in and keep myself busy so I hope to be able to post a loss next week!

290 this week. Down 2 more pounds this week. I could have lost more if I didn't eat some holiday chocolates this week. Much, much less than I would've in the past, but still did indulge. I guess that is what this is all about. Moderation but not denial.

A very happy and healthy holiday to all.

230 - up 2 lbs. Indulged, too much salt for the last 2 days (eating out) AND needing a fill. Not a good combination. Called for a fill app't and they won't see me until next week. Unfortunately, I'm out of town that day. So I wait another week. Gotta grin and bear it. I CAN do it!

Checking in. No loss :(

So disappointed. Stayed at 192.5.

Unfortunately I waited till the last minute to get ready for Christmas, so I have been spending the week running around instead of getting to the gym.

Hoping for a loss this next week.

Terri.

kkf1979 checking in at 245.2 up 0.6 from last week. I am not surprised considering the fact that i didn't work out for a whole week, and i was far from good with my food choices. Anyways no point whining time to get back on track.

Agnes checking in here...

This week weighed in at 180. Down 3 from last week I believe. So now all I need to do is lose 2 to meet my goal for this challenge. I think I can do it even with Christmas thrown in there.

      It's been 10 long years! Here is my VSG weight loss surgiversary update..

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.

      Oh yeah, something I wanted to rant about, a billing dispute that cropped up 3 months ago.
      Surgery was in August of 2023. A bill shows up for over $7,000 in January. WTF? I asks myself. I know that I jumped through all of the insurance hoops and verified this and triple checked that, as did the surgeon's office. All was set, and I paid all of the known costs before surgery.
      A looong story short, is that an assistant surgeon that was in the process of accepting money from my insurance company touched me while I was under anesthesia. That is what the bill was for. But hey, guess what? Some federal legislation was enacted last year to help patients out when they cannot consent to being touched by someone out of their insurance network. These types of bills fall under something called, "surprise billing," and you don't have to put up with it.
      https://www.cms.gov/nosurprises
      I had to make a lot of phone calls to both the surgeon's office and the insurance company and explain my rights and what the maximum out of pocket costs were that I could be liable for. Also had to remind them that it isn't my place to be taking care of all of this and that I was going to escalate things if they could not play nice with one another.
      Quick ending is that I don't have to pay that $7,000+. Advocate, advocate, advocate for yourself no matter how long it takes and learn more about this law if you are ever hit with a surprise bill.

      Some days I feel like an infiltrator... I'm participating in society as a "thin" person. They have no idea that I haven't always been one of them! 🤣

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL
