One is 3 days before surgery attached with 2 months out, and one is Yesterday July 28th.... I just want to say to anyone thats in a stall... Just switch it up... You will not fail... Just do something different... If your running on a treadmill, start doing different kinds of exercises, change your diet completely.. If your eating chicken breast and salad and your in a stall... eat brocoli and fish... and drink a whole lot more water... Stalls come and trust me, stalls go.. I aint where i wanna be yet, and I was in a stall for 3 weeks without knowing it... but when i realized what was up.. I switched it up,.. and im back on the downward spiral... Good luck VSG family!

Salad....? Im one of the lucky ones who has found that I can eat anything i want... since about a month out.. NOT THAT I DO.. But i can... and Ive learned so much on this ride.. Its not about being hungry.... cause im hungry all the time... But i did this to be healthy and i wont let the hunger decide for me.. yeah, every once in a while i want a lil debbies snack cake or something.. but do i eat the whole thing, NO! can I YES... and SALAD! yes... No problems here... Your 2 weeks out! keep on trucking.. Youll be eating salad before you know it..

      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? 🤷‍♀️
