Funny story I thought the Mexico sleever would fine musing



Recommended Posts

I went out to dinner tonight with my family to a Chinese Restaurant. I know not a good choice for food but It was more to be with the family than to eat. As dinner winded down,the conversation turn to my surgery. Mostly negative so I won't repeat the whole conversation. After about 30 minutes defending my decision for WLS, the waitress brought me my fortune cookie and the bill.

The fortune cookie read.....Sometimes travel to new places leads to great transformation.

32 days and counting!!!!!:whoo:

I had Chinese yesterday. Actually my wife wanted it the night before so I ate some mongolion chicken with onions over three meals, that night and two yesterday. I skipped the rice. The restaurant decided to make it super spicy. I used to love spicy foods. I am paying today. I am four and half weeks out. I probably should have waited a little longer. I am in such pain today in my stomach and throwing up all night I called in sick from work today. Just laying in bed with my computer.

Love the fortune and love chinese food too! I told my Mom that I would explaine anything about the surgery, but she can't use emotional blackmail or put down my choice of having the surgery if she ever wants me to include her in whats going on in my decisions. It has curbed her tongue and we have better conversations now.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
