Hi all. It's a very Merry Christmas Eve! What a wonderful time of year. I weighed in at 203 today for a loss of 2 pounds. This sleeve is the best thing I've done for myself in a long time. I'm loving my life and actually excited about getting clothes for Christmas.

How is everyone else doing this week?

I just got sleeved 12/13/11, so I am excited about my future, But this is a tough time of year for a food addict. For Christmas, I have always done a lot of cooking and baking, especially Cookies. This year Christmas can't be food centric. I bought ceramic gingerbread houses for me and my family to paint & decorate, and we made some ornaments . My DH said, "you know its not eating the cookies that's fun-its spending time together" How right he is! (Note- he is tall and pretty slim, just a little in the belly!)It's so important to have family support. Happy holidays to everyone!

Hey friends! I have not checked in for 4 weeks, I have missed you all! I weighed 211 lbs this morning, making my loss 5.6 lbs since my last check in 4 weeks ago. I am not too happy with this number, wish it was higher, but at least I have lost right?

I hope everyone has a wonderful Christmas filled with laughter and love! I am so looking forward to what 2012 has in store!

Awesome!! I weighed in this morning at 281.2, which is just over 70 pounds lost since the start of my pre-op diet (13 pre surgery), so 57 pounds since surgery. I think that's incredible! :)

I am late posting this but I stayed the same this week. The important thing to remember is that I didnt gain over the holidays! I am in fact down 5 this month so far for a total of 55 pounds down since my Aug. 8th surgery. Wooohooo!

      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? 🤷‍♀️

      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.
