Wow! Good luck with the energy thing. If you have a pedometer, maybe you could try to incorporate steps during the day. I used to have a desk job and would go out during lunch and walk through a nearby plant nursery. It was good for me mentally and physically.

I am feeling weaker than I was in the beginning. I think it's because I got so tired of the Protein shakes that when I got to mushy food I tried to get all my Protein through food. I just couldn't get it all in. Now I'm trying different Protein Shakes for variety and eating foods that have more protein bang for the bite. I feel like it's two steps forward and one step back. Little by little, it's getting better.

Maybe a Saturday morning would work best. Not much, but it might motivate us to do better on our own during the week. This Saturday is bad for me, though. I'll message ArkGirl and maybe you two could meet.

If you didn't see earlier, my name's Carol, sleeved 8/31 by Dr. Clayton Frenzel.

I feel the same about the two steps forward one back thing. I'm on puréed this week and I think I'm having the same issue. I'm truly not meeting my Protein goal and I think I'm dehydrated again. Today I'm gonna focus hard on Water. My kidneys are screaming

Hi I'm Jessica, I was sleeved on 07/05,by Dr. West moorland in Dallas. I was having the same issues you are having with Protein and Water. I'm still having that problem almost 3months later. If you want to walk we can do it but I have to let you know on the weekend I'm up walking at 6am.LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
