Oh lawd! That doesn't make me feel good.

It honestly is just one of those fluke things that can happen! They gave me the blood thinners in my belly like they were supposed and still... My poor Dr feels so bad though even though its not his fault and I swear I am being treated like a queen in here!

Im just walking and walking and walking. They wont give me anything for it. I threw up once mire but found out it was my asthma meds! It was ooening my lyngs up which in turn made me cough up/ swallow mucus which irritated my new stomach.... i might have to stay 1 more day.. im thursty though.. i hooked up my heating pad and hit the morphine and passed out!!!! Best sleep ive had since being here. The nurses let me sleep for a while. They are really accommodating. Bout to go on last walk before sleep time. 3 laps here i come!!!!

I get sleeved tomorrow. Yesterday I went skiing with my grand kids, it was such an awesome day. It helped me remember why I want this, while many say ”nothing tastes as good as thin feels ", for me it's "as good as healthy feels" my family is very active and my weight hasn't stopped me yet from participating, but I see that it will in the near future. I want to do half marathons with my grand kids, I want to ski with them, I want to never have to be in the situation where I'm to heavy to participate. With this surgery I'm giving myself a tool in which to accomplish that. So when you see someone eating French fries, or ice cream, whatever your "food" is, remember what your reason for doing this was and I'll bet nothing tastes as good as your reason is. Good luck to everyone!

      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.
