Hi everyone!!! Sorry I was MIA!! I had a crazy week and was actually out of town for a few days, faced a few challenges (alcohol, eating out, hotel, etc...) I have not been on the scale for a while but am feeling pretty good. I am happy I made some good choices about eating and when to stop eating. A pair of jeans I packed were actually falling down and loose, so that felt good. I am happier staying off the scale, so I'm going to try to keep doing that. Trying to get my Water in and really listening to my body tell me when I'm hungry instead of going to eat for boredom, sadness, happiness, whateverness!!! I will weigh in on Monday and check in. So happy for you all and just that we're still here posting, checking in and feeling good. GO US!

:cheer2:

Hi there...well I lost 4 pounds last week. A pretty big loss for me and not typical so far. Finally doing better with food. I tried quite a few things this week and everything stayed down fine. I am starting to track calories/fat/carbs just to make sure I am not too out of whack. It is tough because I am eating 1/2 a scrambled egg and 3/4 of a piece of cheese-makes the calculations more time consuming. I don't think I will worry about it daily, but I do want to stay in tough with my consumption. I made an appointment with a personal trainer for this week so I am excited about that. I don't want to be a big flabby mess so hopefully he can help me out ;)

I hit hit two milestones this week. Busted out of the 200s (woohoo) and I have officially lost 1/3 of my weight loss goal. Have a great week and keep losing!

Labrys here...

Sorry for the delay. I was out of town with my sweetie who started radiation therapy for her breast cancer. She seems to be doing well and is handling this thing with remarkable grace.

As for me, there was no loss on Monday :hurt: I have been eating the right things so I think its just this old body is doing some adjustments. Anyway, the pounds are coming off.

Cherice that is soooo wonderful (onederful). :hail: All of you just doing great. I hope to post a loss this coming week. :funscale:

Thanks for being there ya'll and for all the encouragement. You are the BEST. :party4:

Labrys here....

Hooray! Finally and downward movement on the scale. I'm out of most of my clothes, and have been wearing some old smaller clothing. While I lose I shop only at Goodwill and Salvation Army. My sweetheart is losing also but I'm concerned that she is not getting enough nutrition.

I'm still working at getting all my liquids in. Most of the food I eat is Protein. I do have a weakness for crackers though.

I can't tell you all what an encouragement you all have been for me. I know this journey has some bumps in the road, but your encouragement and willingness to share makes the road a bit smoother. Thanks! :wub:

HW: 238

SW: 230

Hey all -- just checking in for Wed. (my weigh in day) -- not a great week -- I GAINED .4 pounds. I know, not a biggie, but still. I know that there is a reason behind it -- last Sunday, we (the family, dogs) went for a walk and it was so hot out that I had heat stroke -- so my body immediately held on to all the Water it could - ugh -- gained 5 lbs. from that -- and then it was my time of the month -- so all in all, I guess the fact that I didn't gain more is pretty good. Anyhoo- - just wanted to keep everyone in the loop -- whaaaaa! :/

      Four days post surgery. I am sipping as fast as I can and getting NO WHERE near the goal of 60 - 80 grams of protein or the 64 oz of liquids. I just feel FULL. I don't know if it can still be the gas build up (I would think by now that would be gone) but it is a struggle to drink. And so far I have not had the nausea or spasms and don't want to wander into that territory by pushing too hard with liquids. I about passed out today as it was my most "strenuous" day. Went from second story to basement for shower and I was sure I was going to pass out. Looking back on my last few days I have had a total of less than 1000 calories. Am I just not getting enough nourishment in me? Once again a friday where I can't get ahold of the doc until Monday rolls back around so I am hoping maybe someone here has some experience on how to keep energy going. I do have fibromyalgia too and that may be where some added fatigue comes into play. How did you all fair with the goals the week after surgery?

      2 days until I fly out to San Diego to have my Bypass Surg. in Tiajuana Mexico. Not gonna lie, the nerves are starting to surface. I don't fear the surgery itself, or the fact that I'm traveling alone, but its the aftermath that I'm stressing about the most, after this 8 week wait. I'm excited to finally be here, but I am really dreading the post surgical chapter. I know its going to be tough, real tough and I think I'm just in my head to much now that the day i here. Wish me luck, Hopefully I'm one of the lucky ones, and everything goes smoothly. Cant wait to give an exciting update,. If there is anyone else have a June bypass or even a recent one, Id love to have someone to compare war stories with. Also, anyone near San Antonio Tx? See ya soon with the future me. 💜

        Good Luck this procedure is well worth it I am down to 249.6 lb please continue with the process..

      2. Selina333

        I'm in Houston so kind of near you and had the sleeve in Dec. Down 61 lbs. Feeling better. Was definitely worth it. I hope the everything is going well for you. Update us when you can!

      3. Doughgurl

        I am back home after my bypass surgery in Tiajuana. I'm post op day 4. Everything went great! I guess I'm one of the lucky ones who have not encountered much pain at all, no nausea thus far and I'm having no problem keeping down broths and water. Thank you for your well wishes. I cant wait to keep up this journey and have a chance at better health and simply better quality of life. I know there will be bumps in the road ahead, and everything won't be peaches and cream, but at least I have a great start so far. 😍

    • LeighaTR

      I am new here today... and only two weeks out from my sleeve surgery on the 23rd. I am amazed I have kept my calories down to 467 today so far... that leaves me almost 750 left for dinner and maybe a snack. This is going to be tough for two weeks... but I have to believe I can do it!

      Hey everyone. I'm new here so I thought I should introduce myself. I am 53y/o and am scheduled for Gastric Bypass on June 25th, 2025. I'm located in San Antonio, Texas. I will be having my surgery in Tiajuana Mexico. I've wanted this for years, but I always had insurance where bariatric procedures were excluded. Finally I am able to afford to pay out of pocket.  I can't wait to get started, and I hope I'm prepared for the initial period of "hell". I know what I have signed up for, but I'm sure the good to come will out way the temporary period of discomfort and feelings of regret. I'd love to find people to talk to who have been through the same procedure or experience before. So I look forward to meeting you all. Hope you have a great week!

        I'm so happy for you! You are about to change your life. I was so glad to get the sleeve done in Dec. I didn't have feelings of regret overall. And I'm down almost 60 lbs. I do feel a little sad at restaurants. I can barely eat half a kid's meal. I get adults meals often because kid ones don't have the same offerings at times. Then I feel obligated to eat on that until it's gone and that can be days. So the restaurant thing isn't great for me. All the rest is fine by me! I love feeling full with very little. I do wish I could drink when eating. And will sip at the end. Just a strong habit to stop. But I'm working on it! You will do fine! Just keep focused on your desire to be different. Not better or worse. But different. I am happy both ways but my low back doesn't like me that heavy. So I listened (also my feet!). LOL! Update us on your journey! I'm not far from you. I'm in Houston. Good luck and I hope it all goes smoothly! Would love to see pics of the town you go to for this. I've never been there. Neat you will be traveling for this! Enjoy the journey. Take it one day at a time. Sometimes a few hours at a time. Follow all recommendations as best you can. 💗

      2. Doughgurl

        Thank you so much for your well wishes. I am hoping that everything goes easy for me as well. We don't eat out much as it is, so it wont be too bad in that department. Thankfully. Also, I hear you regarding your back and feet!! I'd like to add knees to the list. Killing me as we speak! I'm only 5' so the weight has to go. Too short to carry all this weight. Menopause really did a doosey on me. (😶lol) My daughter also lives in Houston. with her Husband and my 5 grand-littles. I grew up in Beaumont, so I know Houston well, I will be sure to keep in touch and update you on my journey. I may need some advice in the future, or just motivation. Thank You so much for reaching out, I was hoping to connect with someone in the community. I really appreciate it. 💜
