I feel fabulous! I have had such an easy time. Only issue I have is reflux. I still have to take Prilosec. But so long as I do I'm all good.

I feel good about myself in ways I never did before. And some days I even feel sexy. (Yes we men feel that stuff too)

Wowsers!!! You really look amazing. You oughta go on over to the thread about how it feels to be attractive to the opposite sex ALL THE TIME!!!! They probably wanted the feminine point of view but a man's view point would be refreshing to hear.

Catching a stranger checking you out

You look GREAT, trim and athletic! Congratulations on your new life! I wish I didn't want to eat anymore and didn't care about food but, alas that doesn't seem to be the case for me. However I am somewhat less food-obsessed than I was pre-surgery. Not sure how much of it is psychological vs physical in my case. Anyway, I am trying to become an exercise junkie instead of a foodaholic! LOL!

pre-surgery weight 325; surgery date 2/28/2013; surgery weight 307; 8 weeks past-op weight 281.4; 12 weeks post-op 274; 4 month post-op 266.2; 5 month post-op 262.6; 6 month post-op 253.2

Dude, you should feel sexy every day. You definitely are. Love how you are muscular but not "bulgy" like someone one on steroids. Very proportionate muscle mass. Congratulations!

What an inspiration you are!

I'm just starting this journey - had my consult last week. Sucking the marrow? I'm all over that one - got a tattoo a couple weeks ago to remind myself. Guess I'm ready then, huh?

      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? 🤷‍♀️
