4 months out and I have a camel toe - woohoo!



Recommended Posts

I'm just a few days away from my 4 month surgiversary and thought I'd share the good and the bad.

The Good:

  • I started at 185 and am now down to 144
  • I'm in a size 8 and headed to a size 6 on my next shopping trip
  • Lots of compliments and people calling me thin are fantastic (who me? thin?)
  • My thighs no longer rub together and in fact, I have a camel toe when i put on leggings . . . and I'm wearing leggings!
  • Things are toning up nicely. I'll loose like 4 lbs, then stall for a week or two and then things will reshape and tighten up.

The Bad:

  • I think my gallbladder needs to come out. I've had several strong attacks that have knocked me to the ground. Getting official tests soon
  • I'm spending too much money on clothes and bras that I've outgrown. I love buying new clothes, but hate to see them go so quickly
  • My fiance moved out two months ago . . . maybe I'm just too sassy for him now
  • I have major stomach issues like diarrhea, gas, gurgling, etc
  • Still trying to figure out meals

Would I do it again? Absolutely.

Good luck to all and here's to hoping you all gain a camel toe in the near future.

Maybe I'm not sure what a camel toe is.. I thought I did but this makes me question it? But congratulations onthe rest of it.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
