5 weeks out, first day of solid foods....

it was my friend's baby shower. food, cupcakes, and candy galore. Open bar.

I did pretty well with my food.

i didnt drink any liquor, bypassed the cupcakes, chocolate covered strawberries...no bread, potato salad

but she had a candy bar...and i couldn't pass on the blow pops sad.gif

sour apple blow pops are my fave....i took two. I had one at the shower. The other is in my bag

I don't feel bad though....it was 60 cals and I tracked it. Still under my cals and carbs. Still focused

Life after WLS

on the up side I got so many positive comments on how good i lookedbiggrin.gif

That's nothing. One or two of those aren't going to kill you. Be careful with the gum though. They say chewing it can add air to the stomach.

I'm 5 weeks out and just had 2, 2oz glasses of wine with a ton of ice. That was my first try with it and I drank it over about 2 hours and it was WONDERFUL! I think a Blow Pop is fine, too!

I think with all of the other things you could have splurged on, you made the "BETTER" choice considering!

Good job!!

Kelly :D

I'm just reeling that someone would pass by a cupcake for a blow pop. Reeling. And not even a grape blow pop. Oh mymy.

You're out in the real world. There are blow pops out there waiting to get ya. I sure hope it's a piece of pound cake that gets me!

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

      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? 🤷‍♀️
