My next door neighbor stopped by last week and took at look at my fattest dog, said he's looking a little slimmer these days! He definitely is! I eat less, he gets less from me! :confused:

LOL - my dog is losing weight too. Mostly because I no longer feel so mean about refusing to give her extra food if she's already eaten the appropriate portion! I figure if I can live on fewer calories, so can she! I will admit that I slowly reduced the amount of food she was getting so she wouldn't have to go 'cold turkey' with her portion size. I'm just a softy when it comes to my pets!

Did you all post pictures of your furry friends on that thread?

This is a funny thread. :biggrin1: We took our dog with us for the family July 4th get together and she was given the name of "furry walrus". She really looks like a walrus with legs. She is definitely over 100 lbs and we've had her on Science Diet RD (perscription food from vet) and Wellness Weight Mgmt food. If we could only get our kids to quit feeding her. :) This can be her "Before" pic. :confused:

My dad mentioned this the other day "Is SamantherSue getting surgery too?" (heh, that rhymed) So, I am excited for her to be getting out. We don't walk her enough, so I started warning her the other day "soooon, we will be outside walking and losing weight, and you will too".

Poor dog, she has gotten so used to being a couch dog, this is going to be the shock of her life.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
