Hey there!

So I had my surgery in Jan of 2011. I got to goal in under 6 months and have been loving life. Weight loss was fast and easy, my life changed a lot with it. My marriage ended and Ive kind of started over but all in all it was all for the best. Here are some pics! I have not used this site in ages so I'm not sure how this worked. I attempted to attach pics. My high weight was 275, surgery weight 229 low weight 133 (while sick) and normal/current weight 138 - 143…

Congrats!! You look great!!

One question......I see you holding a bottle of beer. I'll drink a draft beer maybe once a month, and I'm ok if I take my time with it. I hear it has less carbonation than the cans or bottles. Are you able to drink from the bottles without a lot of stomach discomfort?

      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? 🤷‍♀️
