@@UK Cathy - yea, off work til Monday, then I think we have two weeks left before the summer holidays... I too wish we were closer, it would be fab to meet up again. I hope your back is ok... a few days rest is probably what is needed.

what kind of training do you do?

I need to up my exercise - I have said it before and did try - was doing ok with the squats and sit up etc but now I've done very little moving for over two weeks! Like I said I need a kick up the bum! We should kick each other ...lol... metaphorically of course!

Here is one very popular post that was started by sleve4me.... perhaps you will remember her from this: http://www.bariatricpal.com/topic/194493-weight-gained-since-having-gastric-sleeve-surgery/

This little group really helps me to just be honest... touch base, feel safe and not alone in this thing. I love you guys and really wish the best for you all. It helps me whether I'm gaining, losing or staying the same....

Sleeve4Me was always very positive and willing to listen to differing viewpoints.

People are talking on another thread I've been reading, about revisions to RnY. I really don't want a revision, I don't want to become practically disabled in my eating! I'm down to 35g carbs a day now, shooting for even less. More than 40g makes me GAIN. can you believe that $H!T????

I remember sleeve4me now. As soon as I saw her pic I remembered her. I remember her being very positive and nice. I'm fine with her joining if everyone else is.

215.4 this morning but followed by such violent food poisoning that I could only sip cold Water and nibble dry dry dryyy carbs so, we will see what that does. My intestines feel like I was in a car accident.

Yesterday was my 5 year anniversary of my sleeve...each year I think about writing a progress report but I never do cos I am not at goal... I don't feel like a failure now, as I once did. I don't know what is stopping me to be honest.

I am starting to think that after 2 years of being at this weight I have pretty much finished my weight loss journey. But then that stubborn side of me says, NO! Keep on keeping on...

Anyway,the last 5 years, really have been incredible - cliched to the max but I've lost the weight and found myself!

Does anyone want to let me know if they want either of the two ladies who want to join out group to be approved?

 

Lipstick lady and Sleeve4me

I am fine with adding anyone the group agrees to. My issue is removing them if they become lurkers. I know some in this group rarely post but we go way back; we have a shared history. A new person who doesn't participate would be awkward to me.

 

Also will you delete these discussion posts?

I ate 4 dates 2 days ago and this morning, up 2 F**KING pounds.

      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!!

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

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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
