I'm so depressed! I was scheduled to be banned Friday but can't because I broke my ankle and the doc is worried about blood clots. I'm glad he's looking out for me but just disappointed.

I've been with the broken ankle for 3 weeks now I have to do another 3. I cried and cried when the doctor told me. Today my blood pressure was the best it's been in 2 years. I felt like everything was going great. I'm really disappointed but I do know its for the best.

Can the not put in the filter? I had the option of having it installed if I wanted before the surgery to filter out any clots.

Tomorrows Surgery day for me too!!!...I woke up early this morning with my mind racing and thinking about surgery... A little nervous but not scared!! Focusing on other things help .... I might go to a movie tonight to keep my mind occupied...... On Clear Liquids only yesterday and today and had to deal with passing out Halloween candy yesterday!!! So tempting but I was good!!... Hoping I did my job well these last two weeks and lost some fat around my liver.... I'm down 10 lbs or maybe a little more ( my scale is untrustworthy.. Lol)

Good luck tomorrow and heal well!

      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? 🤷‍♀️
