:). I'm two weeks off from my surgiversary and this morning I weighed 189.9.

Broke 190 and that means I have lost an official hundred pounds since my surgery. It took a full year. I keep waiting for the stall that tells me I have to increase my exercise or cut calories, but it hasn't come yet. It's just gone very slowly since the fast fifty or so I lost last march. Back when I weighed 222 in November I thought it was over. Back when I weighed 209 in January, I thought it was over. When I weighed 222, I thought okay,, that's it, that's fine. Back when I weighed 209 I thought wait, what?

I want to break 160 and at 5'10" I'll be at GOAL, I think. And the best part is there won't be any fear in it. I'll know it's going to stay off, doing what I normally do, exercising at a level I can reasonably handle.

Thirty pounds to go. Can't imagine what it's going to be like to be thin again. But I'm not going to worry about it. I'm going to have a good summer :)

      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? 🤷‍♀️
