Recommended Posts

if you sum up 5 pound per month that 50lbs. in 10 months on a slow pace but healthier. i lost quick but slong with it i lost my hair and i was misrable the entire journey cause i ended up in the Er. several times for dehydration. Sometime you walk out of there ok and the next day you cant even take a sip. and by the time you get back in there its been a good 3-7 day of maddness cause the weekend crossed you or a holiday or he was in surgery. with my experience they either put tooo muvh or put too little or take out tooo much. im a Cash patient. So when your poping out $400 bills at a time it because fustruating. i was in the green zone for 18 months at 153 pounds size 9 and deciede to loss more and go down to size 5 .. so i go in get an adjustment keep in mind my doctor suggested me nit to that i looked fine. He did the adjustment i lost and dropped to a size 5 but i was so tight from my band that in the middle if the night i aspirated Fluid into my lung and got and infection. my doctor went into the hospital and took out all the fluid cause i could keeped anything down. that made me gainweight cause then u gotta take the med with food. uuugh! so now i have my fluid back in and back on track to losing weight. i sleep elevated up now to avoid aspiration back up.. Be patient sometimes by us rushing then we make things it worst..

      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? 🤷‍♀️
