What Are You Working On?



Recommended Posts

What are you working on now? Whether you're combating the pre-op jitters, trying to stop other addictive behaviors, or keeping your hands busy, share your projects here.

Right now I'm dyeing a TON of yarn for a Kickstarter campaign I started last year. I'm trying to get it all done before my surgery next week, but I don't think I'm going to make it... :o

I haven't done anything post-surgery. It takes me so long to get all of my Protein in, etc. But...I have to start something soon. I have a giant pile of yarn glaring at me. I finished and blocked a pretty shawl out of sock yarn right before surgery.

Started my first project post-op. It's just a little scarf with some Paton's sequin lace for my mom's friend. It's a crochet stitch called angel stitch, and it's pretty fun so far. I'm glad to be back doing something with my hands.

Glad to see this group, I knit, crochet, quilt, cross stitch, stamp. You name it I do it. I'm working on hats and scarfs for the local boys home, I just finished a prayer shawl. And I need to make a beaded Bracelet for my Grand daughter. Yep, I'm pre surgery and am on the shrink your liver diet. Keeps me from eating all the time. Lol

Planning on taking a craft to family's Thanksgiving celebration so I won't try and munch stuff I can't have. Hope it works. Lol

Hi all, I am just starting the hoop jumping for WLS. Before I started obsessively researching WLS and all the fun stuff that I'm finding wrong along the way I really like crafting. I love my Cricut and making cards and other paper crafting projects. I also like cross stitching when I can find the time.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
