Hey all! I'm new around these parts

My surgery is scheduled for January 7th and I was wondering if there are any others schedule for the big day in January 2013 ...?

Sleeved Jan 9th and down from 270 to 238. 34 lbs down in six weeks. I'm happy with this. I eat 1000-1200 a day.

I mean 32 lbs down.Anyway that is about a little more than 5 lbs a week!!

this past week my wt has bounced up and down 2 lbs. today I am up. Yesterday I was down. At surgery I was 253 lbs

today I am 235, yesterday I was 233...fixing to go to dr. dont know what his scales will say. Its just my regular dr. not my wls. doc. I need to start my walking daily. and probably up my calories.

Im happy with my sleeve! I know this journey is just begining. I am here for the ride. :wub:

I got a new scale and the problem was fixed, dont know what was going on with my old scale but happy to not be going crazy

What was your daily menu? I'm having a hard time choosing what to eat that my stomach can tolerate so I can get that much in.

My menu is all over the map, but I try to have four or five 200-250 calorie meals a day with a couple of snacks thrown in.

I'm at the movies..I'm 3wks postop....the popcorn smells soooo good....ughhh. but I'm drinking water with mio...hml right now.

Lol

I got a new one before surgery, I didn't own one before that, I think I may have banned them from the house subconsciously before I only lost a pound and a half last week so I hope I have a good weight loss this week. I've up'd my fluids and constantly sip cordial (sugar free) all day and have a cup of tea a few times. I am still dehydrated at the moment as I can tell from my skin and energy levels are low. Hopefully this constant sips will help :-)

How far out are you? I want to start Zimbabwe again but idk if I've waited long enough

My doc said walk only, no zumba or other core exercising that will cause me to twist my abdomen area for 6 weeks.

I have the same problem with the scales at work. When I weighed on Monday it said I gained 6 pounds. When I used the other one I had lost 5.5 pounds

My dr.'s visit yesterday was awesome. I am officially off my b/p and diabetic meds!!!!

Congrats!!!

I just went out for my first long walk since surgery. I posted it on mmw. It was beautiful outside. I would have been doing this earlier. I live by a national park and they have been having controlled burns and burning red cedar....not good for walking outside. 1.30 miles in 22 mins....love the mmw app.

I believe it's Map My Walk app. I have Map My Run. It's really cool.
