Wowzers Its Been A Little While Since I've Been On!



Recommended Posts

Heyyyyyy everyone!! I feel so out of loop its been about 2 months since I've been here.. how has everyone been? Ive been really busy with work and school and just life lol. But just wanted to you all a little on my progress and status. So I've been doing very well since surgery May2nd everything went smooth no complications at all. Since surgery I am down 32lbs so all together 62lbs down!! whoop whoop. I had my Second fill June 6th well first I guess..they put a little Fluid in my band at surgery. I had no restriction at the time so I was so happy to get one. As of right now my restricion is very minimal I have a large band 14ccs so I think I may need more of a fill to get to the green zone. Good thing is im still making good choices and eating in my baby bowl and spoon and working out almost everyday. I had an appointment July 26th for a fill but at the time I had lost around 14lbs since my last fill so I didnt think I needed one. My next fill is September 6th and I think I will get one this time. Anyway im rambling sorry. The only issues I have had is with Hair loss in my edges. I started taking Biotin 5000mg so hopefully that helps out a little besides that I haven't had an issue getting stuck or throwing up so far and hopefully things go well with my next fill! :-)

      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.
