Thank you very much' date=' ur too kind :) I still have about 12 hours left on my backpiece before its done though. Well honestly I'm not ur model sleever. I live my normal life n eat n drink what I want when I want just not 5000 calories of it daily. I have an active life but I don't exercise outside of daily activities (ER nurse, walk dogs, getting off the couch lol etc). I'm surprised how well my skin bounced back actually, I've had stretch marks since elementary just from normal growth spurts so I knew my elasticity was not going to be good, but it was good enough. My belly is kinda pouchy but not as bad as what it seems in the bikini pic (bloated n poor posture from long day at the pool). My boobs n but have deflated n inner thighs are lookin kinda sad. But I love life again. Wish I could give u some advice but I really just went on about my life after surgery and it just kinda happened[/quote']

That is exactly, exactly what I plan on doing! I pray I have the same results. I am two weeks out and I'm eating tiny, tiny portions of what I want (softer) foods but I'm not counting calories, obsessing over everything that goes in my mouth. I know how to eat healthy and I am making better choices but I plan on living my life; just with tiny portions! BTW... I'm an L &D nurse and in Texas too!

      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? 🤷‍♀️
