Yesterday FRIDAY THE 13 my flight was sposed to take off at 750am its an hr nd 30 min dr from my house i got a call at one in the morning saying my fligh was delayed til 926am but still make it to my final destination in time wich is sandiego to get sleeved in tj i had to arrive by the lates 1 to get my sleeve that same day. So i leave my house at 7 am to hve an hr to hve an hr to spare at the airport halfway into the trip i remembered i forgot my cashiers check!!!! I had to turn around nd i was gonna miss my flight! I spoke to an agent that was about to change my flight departure to 1030 with 75$ charge nd the call disconnected i called a few more times nd nothing disconnected then finally an answer the agent was soooo rude told my they didnt hve nothin to depart that same day only first class and that i would hve to pay extra $200 ughh i was dying then i said well i got insurance on my ticket she said sorry i dont see it nd u wont get a refund! It was the worse i had almost given up i ask the Lord plz help me i called back again nd a nice agent answered she told me she could get me in sandiego by 450pm the coordinator said by 2 the latest to get surgery or i would hve to do it the next day in the morning by this point i dnt care i just want to get to sandiego nd then i told her bout my surgery she kept looking and she found. Departure at 11:20 am to get to SD at 2pm i was so happy i flew out at 11:20 So i get a connection flight. Flight departing at 120 and in SD by 2 it was a 3 hr flight so then we all board at 1 an they said by 120 there was a delay some circuit wrong with the plane that only would take 20 mins... An hour passed!! They offloaded everyone! Said the flight couldnt depart cause it was something wrong with the plane but that on the broght side there was a brandnew plane coming to get us but didnt know how lon it would take.... We ended up departing at 4 got to sandiego 3 hrs later at 5 pm the coordinator spoke to the Dr and he waited for me so i still got my surgery a little worried after all the bad luck! Nd in the plane both flights i sat in the middle of two big men so i couldnt even strech so uncomfortable! I started to think maybe i just shouldnt get it.. But im glad i did im recoverin today with no gas pain no pain really nd doctor says everything looks good! Thank God .. He also said i was the youngest nd "thinnest patient he had" i got here signed some paper work got blood work staright to the Anesthesiologist nd from there i dnt remember anything until i woke up bout 6hrs later already with the surgery done very drowsy nf i went right back to sleep... I WAS A NERVE WRECK but finally its done :))

      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? 🤷‍♀️
