Book 'em Dano! The big 5-0



Recommended Posts

:clap2:Well, I'm pretty excited this morning and I know my lapband family will understand why -- my scale showed a 50 pound loss as of this morning! I feel like shouting it from the rooftops, but it's a pretty odd thing to bring up in conversation with passersby!!!! I knew this was the place to make my announcement. I couldn't wait to change my ticker! Going away on a ski trip for a few days tomorrow -- hopefully I'll keep those last few pounds off that I just lost!

I am one of the idiots who can't get pics onto the board. Penni had to do my avatar....if someone tells me how, I could send some. I have this really gross before pic -- I look like the Cheshire Cat in Alice in Wonderland!

Congrats on your accomplishments! Have lots of fun! (I'm a little jealous) (Oh, ok, a LOT jealous)

      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? 🤷‍♀️
