Chacha, it could be possible. I'm adopted and we could have been separated at birth! Hahaha

I'm so proud of myself, I got a prescription for anti-depresants. After that last episode I'm afraid I'll have more if I don't do something about it now, when I'm still healthy enough, mentally, to get my self to the doc.

Good for you! I'm really glad you did it.

Thanks Cha cha, for some reason getting the script is the hardest part. How are you doing?

Well I'm down 41.5 lbs. I was sleeved on 3/15 and started at 288. I weighed myself yesterday and I was down 41.5. Awesome.

Congratulations! Way to go!!!!

I'm curious what you guys are experiencing in terms of capacity for the different meals throughout the day. I'm able to eat (just recently) more than I thought I'd be able to in the mornings, and not quite as much at lunch, but I'm having a hard time with dinner. I skip it most nights, or just have a drink. I'd really hoped the issue of varying restriction was a thing of the past (from my lapband) but it seems like I'm doomed forever. ;)

BTW, had to get weighed yesterday, seem to be in the second week of a stall. But I'm like a stall *****. I tend to lose a lot very quickly, then stall out to a very moderate overall loss.

Ha! I'm flipped. I'm an afternoon- late eve eater. I have an insatiable appetite when I get home from work. I need a pm snack and usually I get so busy I end up forgetting. Yesterday I was starving after dinner for hours until I finally broke down and ate.

My restriction doesn't seem to fluctuate. About the same amount at each meal. I can eat approximately 1/2 cup at each meal.

I seem to be more hungry in the evening as well. I can also eat about 1/2 cup of food. I can do six ounces of yogurt but it takes me awhile.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
