You're certainly welcome Milan. Stay committed to getting active and you'll find a way! I walk in a park near my home and I see folks walking with little people all the time - usually the little guys are in something with wheels. Lol. Have a great day!

Hi Milan dnt stress tomorrow I'll be a month post-op and only down 15lbs but I've had a little set backs and was unable to exercise right away. I have a 5 and 3 year old and my fave exercise is to put some music on and we all dance around they love it and it doesn't really feel like exercising but I do break a sweat ;) Goodluck!

I had not thought of these options. Get my head out of the sand, huh??? Im down to 289 from 329 surgery day 7/30. I'm motivated and exhausted at the same time. I'm thankful there are people who can help here. Like the wheels idea...

I think one of the worse things we can do is compare our weightloss with everyone elses. I agree with DL.....how do you feel, 5 pounds a week is unreal compared to diets we've all been on before this surgery. You're doing awesome!

I human too and it's so natural to want to compare or check out the losses. When I find myself doing that....I change it up and remind myself this isn't a race, this is my life....and I'm going to do the best I can. I can't see the finish line yet but, I sure know I'm going in the right direction :)

Keep up the great work!

24 pounds in five weeks is almost five pounds a week. When was the last time you lost five pounds a week? Do you really want to lose 10' date=' 15, or 20 lbs a week? Not healthy, not realistic, and not sustainable. Maintain five pounds a week for six months and you'll be almost 150 lbs lighter! This is a journey, not a marathon. And it starts with realistic expectations. You're doing absolutely great! Celebrate your success! Stay focused on following the protocol, stay active, and stay away from the scales for a week and even two if you can stand it. You're gonna love the new you!![/quote']

Well said..I luv this!!! Great Advice! :)

      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.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!
