Hey Summer! Haven't heard from you in awhile! Are you going to the Support Group meeting this evening? I think I will actually be able to make this one....How's progress? I'm still trudging along - I'm finished with all my doctor's appts now (I think) and I'm trying to get used to my CPAP machine (of course I had sleep apnea!) so I just have nutrition classes and meetings with dieticians.....when I went to my nutrition class last week I had lost 2 more pounds so something must be working though it could just have been all the running around to doctor's appts and not having time to eat! Hope you are doing well!

Lol @ you calling me Summer lol I always said if I had a daughter, I'd name her Summer. Congrats on the 2 lbs!!!! That's great!!! I thought about you yesterday! I went to my first nutrition class. I got there alittle late but it was pretty cool. I meet with the dietitian next week then 2 more nutrition classes and that endoscopy and I'll be on my way!!! I'm still super excited!!!! Did you make it to the support group yesterday? If so, how was it? I may try to make the next one...

Ha! Was thinking about summer all day yesterday and making my vacation plans - that was a freudian slip! I did make it to the support group meeting. It was really good! Very inspiring to see all the different people at the different stages of this process and how excited they all are about their progress. Last night they had a cooking demonstration and handed out some recipes, etc. They are talking about setting up a clothing exchange so that people can donate their larger clothes as they get smaller so that we don't have to spend so much money buying clothes while we are shrinking! Sounds like an excellent idea to me. Next one is going to be "Ladies Night" and there will be makeovers by Carmen!Carmen! and mocktails, etc. I'm really going to try to make that one. I'm so excited and want to know my date NOW!!!

yay Missyjoy2078, You are the same day as me, so exciting and Brendan..... YAY !!!!!! I just sent you an email actually and then just read this message. So are you going to Allamanda? if so you will be going into hospital the day that I will be going home. Have you booked in to see nutritionist yet? She is really lovely, you'll like her. We will be starting our pre op diet around the same time. The book that she will give you when you go and see her is really informative, the appointment with her goes for about 90 min, she is great, she explains everything, she also comes and visits you the day after surgery in the hospital. She said that it's also possible to stay in hospital for three nights rather then 4.... Here's hoping !!! hey you and your wife should come over for afternoon tea one day before we start our pre op diets, I'll bake some treats lol.. take care and Chat soon :) ps I'm really happy that you have made your decision and you seem relaxed with the idea.

      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.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!
