Recommended Posts

Well, I did it and now the fun begins. I am very happy to find this site and read all the wonderful comments that folks have shared. I have many questions and it is good to have a safe place to ask the questions. BTW. I am still on a liquid diet and I am so not hungry but I don't want to become dehydrated. Protein, Protein, protein.....

TMT welcome aboard

congrats on WLS - glad you are happy - many new wonderful things to experience while going through this journey. We're all here to answer any and all questions we can-with the advise to go to your dr. with a real medical question.

sounds like you are doing great on your liquid diet of Protein shakes et al. i was lucky also not to mind drinking the Protein Shakes, some people can't tolerate there taste, so you are lucky.

protein is always going to be invaluable - always will have 1rst part of your meal. Of course Water is VERY important too. We're supposed to get 64 oz a day - kind of hard to do at first, hard after awhile too. I'm having problems getting all that Water down daily - still working on it.

Again TMT, glad to have you in the neighborhood.

best wishes

kathy

      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? 🤷‍♀️
