Hi Everyone! I am 45 y/o, married to a wonderful man and have a terrific daughter. I have 3 fur babies (cats). I started my 2 week preop diet today (so far so good). My surgery is scheduled for 6/25. Trying to keep busy to distract me from food temptations and pre-surgery jitters. :wacko: Never thought I'd say that it may be good that I work full time, so that I have something that requires my focus and attention. Good luck to everyone working towards their goals!

Been gone for a while but back. Since leaving, I have been really working hard on fitness. Started CouchTo5K and I am now in the middle of week 7. Doing a kettle ball bootcamp two times a week for some weight training and I am playing in a "Old Guy Lacrosse" league. Lots of fun and lots of work. Bad part is I have stalled for the past 3-4 weeks. Not eating enough protien and too many carbs. I have refocused and making sure I am getting my 60-70g of protien in a day.

Take care to all!

      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.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!
