Ok, quick rant - This morning I decided to weigh myself since tomorrow I meet with my surgeon and will be weighed, and I didn't want any nasty surprises. Well, I stepped on and low and behold 199.3! Woohoo!! I stepped off and back on like 4 times just to make sure it wasn't some weird fluke and sure enough each time 199.3. So because I am a nerd and love this site a little too much I figured, hey let me grab my phone and take a pic, proof! So I jump back on the scale and WTF 200.2??!? How the hell did I gain a pound in under 20 seconds?!? Ok, so I know I didn't really gain and pound, but it wasn't the phone weight either because I chucked it quick and tried again. Oh well....so close. Under 200 isn't as much of a mental block for me like 180lbs is so I am not actually that upset about it. It was just a quick rush of emotions all changing in less then a minute. I'm sure I'll be at it tomorrow, but if not that's ok, it means it's still right around the corner which means all that much closer to 180. But hey, still two pounds down for my 4th of July Challenge!! biggrin.gif And two more pounds down for the rest of my life!!!laugh.gif

      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? 🤷‍♀️

      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.
