Recommended Posts

As you can see I was no small man.. And the diff is crazy to me when I look at the photos.. I didn't see myself as big as I was , I have a beautiful wife , wonderful kids.. I was essentially fat and happy.. But I was tired.. My legs hurt, feet hurt, I'd go through boots in 6-8 months.. Now all that is gone.. Thank god!!!!

Quit dressing like a fat guy. You aren't one anymore my dear :). You lost twenty years as well as the pounds.

By the way....is your daughter betrothed yet? She's a super cuttiepie! How's she feel about adorable red heads? We could throw in a trust fund if we have to...and definitely a dog!

Ok google helped me , my biggest non scale victory is the activities I'm now able to partake in with my children , without dying.. We ride bikes , play soccer .. I'm not tired any more , I barely wanna goto sleep at night.. So the energy I have now in surplus for everyday life made it more than worth it!

I know what you mean about the energy and not wanting to waste time sleeping. I'm killing my husband who is a heavy equipment operator. He gets home and wants to collapse. I want to hike and bike and go here and go there ...

On the weekends it's just worse. I want to zip line, kayak, hike up mountains for miles and otherwise stay active all the time. He loves it all once I pry him out the door.

      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? 🤷‍♀️

      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.
