I would like to join I'm 5'2 266.6 pounds today. I'm in southern California, I am a Kaiser Permanente patient. I plan on having surgery in West Los Angeles soon hopefully. I have completed all of their requirements and waiting for the call to schedule an appointment with a surgeon.

How is everyone doing? I'm anxious to follow your progress.

I found an old WW boom and was sad to see that at 204 I was still a size 18. I'm a very tight 20, refuse to buy anymore clothes for now.

Hi everyone! It's been a while since I've posted. Life got busy, we've sold our house and are trying to buy a new one, but we live in Silicon Valley and houses are hard to come by, and we've been in a few bidding wars and it's making me crazy! AND when I'm stressed I look for food, and now I can't, so I'm working on that. Fun abounds! Mama's stressed, the kids are stressed and the dog is napping in the sunshine. Oh the life.

So I've lost (at least) 40lbs from my surgery date of feb 29/12, so I'm bringing up the rear, but I'm okay with that. (I haven't weighed myself in over a week, so not sure of the exact number, but last time is was like 42ish.)

I've signed up for my first triathlon, and I've started running which is something I've always hated, but it's so much easier with 60+ less pounds hanging off of me. (I lost 20 before surgery)

Anyhow, to all my shortie sleevers, I love you all! I see all of your messages since they are sent to my email. It's such a breath of fresh air for me! I'm not alone!

      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? 🤷‍♀️
