So happy to see everyone check in here so I don't feel like I am the ONLY one. It really helps. Anyone else having foot cramps before bed? I do my best on fluids, but this is happening every night!

Tonight I had to go to a party and I'm seeing a lot of people for the 1st time since my surgery. They were freaking. Couldn't believe how good I looked and how small my face is which is def the biggest change

Ok. Been a while since last post. I've discovered I have things called bones! I was feeling my belly (my favorite thing now when I wake up) and felt a dang rib! Also while flying out to DC last week the ride was horrible. No cushion in the butt anymore and I had to get up every so often to walk. I look at my old clothes and can't believe I used to wear those! Those are getting sold to make room for new ones sometime. Had fun at Mardi Gras in Shreveport last night. I dropped like 3 pounds from dancing and raising hell! Tons of fun! I need to get some new pics done....

Darn it! I gained 2 lbs' date=' it's not that time of the month and I swear my stomach shrank. 2 oz of chicken and I feel sick. What the heck is going on??[/quote']

I get like that too. One minute I'm losing like crazy then I sit for a week or so 2 lbs up then it drops its stupid don't worry about it it will pass. It's annoying as hell but you will pull through it as I do. Last week I had great loss now those same 2 lbs float around. Could be Water could anything

Yep on both counts.

I was up two pounds and it finally dropped today. It had to be Water.

I have been actually hungry for about 3 weeks. Some days are worse then others. :-( I was hoping I would be farther out before I actually got hungry.

I don't find that I'm hungry until night time :( I don't even think its that I'm actually hungry but I just want to snack constantly. I think I need to go to bed by 8 to avoid this.

      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.
