Thank you.. such a great feeling to get on the scale and finally see it go down and feel like I'm really achieving instead of being a disappointment.

Thank you.. right now loving my sleeve. Kinda scared to incorporate mushy foods because what if I dont see the scale move. Reading about people saying need to up calories to lose weight.. I'm so confused. Guess will have to talk to surgeon about it

Don't worry just go slow. I actually had a six pound gain followed by a stall after starting mushies and freaked. But your body has been through a lot and you will lose again even if you stop briefly. This is for life and you can do this. Enjoy the ride.

Congrats!!! You are doing awesome!!!

I have to keep reminding myself that the numbers on the scale dont DEFINE WHO I AM.... that being said... it sure does make me want to do cartwheels when they DO go down!!! ;)

      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? 🤷‍♀️
