It was bad ..fluid retention in my legs to the point of threats of knee replacements from the weight. I'm only 32 just too young for that. I am so greatful!

Congrats! Good Job!!

I was same size...26 before surgery, then after a month or so....down to 22! I had to go get new pants cuz mine kept falling down. I have since learned to buy pants with tie-string waists since i keep losing inches on my waist. Also shopped at "vintage" stores (aka...Goodwill) because my budget didn't/doesn't allow me to keep shopping for new clothes everytime I drop a size...almost became addicted to shopping just bcuz of the excitement of wearing a smaller size. Im 9 mo's out now (size 18-20)...imma a slow loser...but still losing!

Best of luck on your continued journey!

      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? 🤷‍♀️
