Ok guys, saying my goodbye!

I'm leavin' tomorrow morning. I'm sure I'll be on here off and on while I'm home... but probably not NEARLY as much as I want!

I hope you all have a great Christmas, and an awesome New Year's in case I don't get the chance to say it before.

See you guys, and thanks for everything!

:)

Hi guys!

Well.... my parents were pleasantly surprised, I think. Everytime my mom sees me in a new outfit she goes on and on about how skinny I am! Yesterday my grandparents came down for lunch, and were also surprised. My grandma thinks even if I didn't lose anymore weight, I'd be perfect, so that's nice.

My best friend, or old bestfriend is coming over in an hour or so, to say hi. I haven't seen her in about a year. She knows I've lost 'some' weight (not about the surg). I'm hoping to get a good reaction outta her! And then there's another friend who's in town that I'm gonna see soon. She's the one I'd go to the bar with, IF we go to the bar. It doesn't sound too promising. Oh well... if nothing else, I'll just have more time to get looking even better and wow em' next time. Who know's if jerkface is even here this Chritsmas.

My Christmas present from myparents was clothes. The day after they picked me up from the airport, we went out and did some shopping. I got a couple pair of pants, a few shirts, some pj pants, and a cool jacket. The pants were 14's and 16's! The 14's can definitely be grown into (or whatever I should call it when they're a tad too tight, but I can wear 'em for a while and have them look good until they just get too big!)

I'll talk to ya all later!

Just realized my ticker is NOT accurate! That's cause I weighed myself on an off day, I guess.. I won't be doing it again until I get back, so... guess I'll hold onto this one for a while. I was thinking I would be lucky if I didn't GAIN during this week, but I damn well better lose, for how much I'm not eating! Not stopping myself, just not really wanting to, all that much.

So, I got a "Oh my god!" from friend #1, and a "where did the rest of you go!?" from her boyfriend. Then a "Oh my god, you look amazing!" from friend #2, whom I went out for coffee with.

Guess WHAT! We ARE going out for a couple drinks tonight. I shall report if anything exciting happens! :)

      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? 🤷‍♀️
