Amazing! I am 1week out from my survey and praying to have the success you have. I am starting out about where you were and wanted to know if you could give me an idea of a typical day of food and exercise.

Thanks in advance.

Thank you so much for posting this. I am 12 days out from my surgery and adjusting to life without constantly eating. My Mom is amazing, has always been so health conscious and good about maintaining a health weight and my issues with food are completely foreign to her. Unfortunately, we have a history of alcoholism in our extended family and when I tried to explain what food addition is like I asked my Mom if she would give one of our cousins a bottle of Jack and a shot glass with the instructions that they were to have four or five shots a day but no more and once they did that they had to stop for the day. I think it was then that she began to understand. I almost wish the addition had been to drugs or alcohol because those things you can truly live without. When I got back from Mexico I found myself shopping for handbags, a huge love of mine. After finding a few I liked I said. . . . . .that will be enough of that! I get on the scale every day and marvel. I am going on a cruise next year and for the first time in my life i feel confident that I'll be able to do all the things I have wanted to do on vacation and it makes me so happy and thankful I did this.

You look like a completely different person and I'm sure you feel like one. I'm so happy for you and appreciate all that you mentioned.

Ok Well I hoping that I trend the same way you did! I have not started working out yet, but I have to start soon. Did you work out a lot?

I was about the same size as you, but I had my boobs cut off a long long long time ago. I think I am probably a lane bryant 16 now which is probably a old navy 20. Sizes are so weird nothing is consistent.

I remember once back in 2003 when I lost the weight on my own I wore a size 14 jeans, but I was 190 at the time. I never got below a 14 jeans. They were express jeans. I still have them! I soooooo want to be a 10! or an 8. At 5'10" I could be smaller, but I looked great at a 14 so 10 would be CRAZY!

I am able to eat more now then when I first got sleeved. I can tell there is more room in there! The month you only lost 4 were you being super strict with your diet?

      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? 🤷‍♀️
