How are you doing?

Kbush: I am doing well. In fact I think I have been doing too much. I cooked a nice dinner for my family yesterday, went got my hair done and was trying to do a little house work. I will be glad when the soreness go away. I only hurt when I'm I get up and sit down Or trying to get comfy in bed. Other than that all is well. How about you?

Mag citrate would be taken to help you gave a BM (poop).

The dizzy/weakness could be from lots of things.... blood loss, low blood sugar, blah blah blah

Not sure when you had your surgery but make sure you get in your Protein, stay hydrated and be very careful walking, stooping, or bending etc...best to have help!

Need mushies help!

I need some ideas for no or low carb mushies. All I'm eating is carbs: mashed potatoes, grits, oatmeal....I get 0 veggies and very little fruit. Please help me with some ideas!!! As of today I can move on to eggs, tuna, and chicken - all very finely chopped. Thanks!

Tuna, chicken salad, I have also had wendy's chili in the blender. still tastes good. that also gives you Protein.< /p>

Split. Pea or Lentil Soup is high Protein. Cottage cheese, Vegetarian retried Beans, Broccoli and Cauliflower mixed with broth for flavor. Gerber baby food, meats and vegetables only. Non-fat, sugar-free yogurt if it Has fruit in it make sure you use a blender.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
