You have gout do to too much Protein. Yeah I was border line with Hoyt but thankfully my levels regulated themselves.

I feel like I am stuck at my current weight. I've been stressing so much with life and I've been tempted to eat junk food. The only good thing is I can't binge eat like I use to but I have made some bad food choices.

I am trying to stop that real quick cause I don't want to defeat the purpose of the surgery.

We all make bad choices sometimes. Just get back on track. You can do it. Look how far you have come. Good luck!

Just wanted to see how many guys are actually on here. Would be nice to voice our thoughts' date=' opinions, updates more often.[/quote']

Checking

I bring the rare position (according to my doc) that there are not a lot of 60-year-old guys opting for this surgery. Over the next three weeks i will have stomach scoping, cardio and pulmonary exams as well as the psyche evaluation. Current weight is 402. Doc says I should plan on getting down to 200. I am soooo excited

      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? 🤷‍♀️

      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.
