Today I'm making a vow to all my fellow sleeve friends... I will stop dabbling in the Easter candy. Number on the scale hasn't budged since last week and now I know why. There is a reason jelly bellies are called jelly bellies!!! Please feel free to check in on me throughout the day!

Oh man yea get off that for sure. I don't even look at my sons candy. For me thinking about the wasted money of a major surgery and the fact that part of my body is now missing keeps me away from candy fat and carbs.

Yeah, those little balls of gooey sugar have more calories than I thought!

My son got 4, YES 4 Easter baskets, all with candy in them. I did eat a chocolate covered brownie egg (a little smaller in size than a PB egg). But that was it. He got some rice crispie treats that have been calling me, but I have resisted. Stay strong...candy is one mean slider!

I did it! I passed out an entire bag of jelly Beans out to my students and didn't have a single one AAAND let my own kids at home have a little from their basket after dinner and didn't touch anything. Plus I worked out on treadmill and burned 300 cals tonight! Feels good. Thanks for listening. :-) I felt more determined knowing some of you were out there in the same boat as me.

Raise your hands and slowly step away from the candy! :P

I have to admit I had some chocolate yesterday. Went to walmarts and there was a basket full of marked down Easter chocolate. My stomach was upset for a couple of hours. Learned my lesson.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
