I wouldn't of been able to do this yet if wasn't for the sleeve. Hope to do the other knee in May and than I can get back to work, start being active once again. Keep up the good work everyone!

Thanks for the encouragement on my new bike. I will have to buy a helmut, our laws say a helmut must be worn. Haven't had a chance to shop yet. Hopefully this week sometime.

You are doing really well down 70lbs since Sept. I am a little slower than that, haven't reached a 30lb loss yet since my surgery day Sept 24. I ate way too many sweets over Christmas.

Well on to the New Year and hopefully better results.

Happy new year! Hope all is well. I haven't been written for a while but I've been keeping up.

Well these past two days were horrible food wise. I ate more carbs that should have. I did gain a pound which makes me sad. But only motivates me know to keep going forward.

Congrats to all the weight loss reported here in spite of the holidays!!

I drank way too much on New Years which for me that equals eating too many Snacks while buzzed. Then, this morning I weighed in and I have gained 3 pounds. I am pretty dissapointed in myself but I am back to work and focused. Hopefully, this year I will not fail my annual New Years Resolution as I do every other year.

Green- You are awesome! Way to go! I am so happy for you. I bet you feel soo good about yourself!

NGMA- I think once in a while is ok, otherwise we go crazy for holding out on ourselves.You are doing good just stay focused on our goal! Now if only I can take my advice. LOL

RESEARCHING- YAY on size12. I have a whole box of 12's in the garage and I am dying to get into them, I cant yet. I am between a 16-18!

Scared- we are kindred spirits. I LOVE Carbs too much Uggghhh. :(

ARTSONG- You are getting there!! So close to Onderland!

Rybecca- ME TOOO!!!

Brandy- You look beautiful and i got the chills just thinking about tequila! LOL ((shudder))

MANDY- AWESOME!!! Way to work the sleeve. I hear ya on the exercise.

HAPPY NEW YEAR AND HELLO TO ANYONE I MISSED!!

I have 4. They are fading every day. 3 or 5 would not make a big difference to me though since I just had my gallbladder out last year and have 3 from that!

I have 5. Three of which are very small. Only one still looks bad, but it did rip open. The rest are fading nicely. My doctor said to keep them from the sun for 6-12 months and they will fade greatly.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
