You look amazing, Bec!

I had a gallbladder attack yesterday afternoon and it was a bad one. I'm still sore. Went to the GP today and ordered an ultrasound and some bloodwork. I wonder if the gallbladder is also causing my diarrhea. I am sort of hoping they will want to remove it even though I don't have time for a surgery right now!

In good news, I will probably get to my surgeon's goal by my 6-month mark on 14 Nov. Hard to believe I went on holiday and lost almost 3 kg! I'm 4 kg away now.

I have oodles of stones and sludge in my gallbladder according to my scan. Hopefully back to the GP tomorrow to see what the next step is.

Target seems to be discontinuing the $20 jeans I've been living in. I went today and bought size 14 (new current size) and 12 (next size) for $8 each! I guess I can spring for the $49 jeans when I hit 10.

I can't get to the last few pages of the thread in the new app yet but I think I can post. I have to have my gallbladder removed and my sleeve surgeon Reza Adib will be doing it. I meet with him Monday and I hope he can do it soon so I don't have another attack and I can heal before my next trip to India in December. I hope everyone else is doing well!

Yes - looks like we are back in business - I can now log on and move between pages on my ipad again!

Hey Misty - it might be time for an updated profile picture as you probably look quite different now?

Good luck with your gallbladder op - hope it solves your other issues.

Post this in the Assistance forum which is at the very bottom of the forum list and they will sort it out. I bet it is because you changed your name on here and maybe it got confused.

I am having nothing but trouble with this new site. Why do good things get sooo messed up, when they should be left alone??!! I can't quote, pm or subscribe at present, and have lost all my old subscriptions... I've complained/asked for help, but no response over a couple of days... I guess they are busy.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
