I too, had my RNY Nov 6th however, my pouch is to big!!!! After a slow loss (32 lbs) my dr ran some tests and discovered my pouch was not the size it should be :( I go back to surgery July 17 and again, I'll have to do the liquids, mushies and then solids! I've got about 40lbs more I'd like to lose so hopefully this will get me there!

Congrats to those who have has an awesome success!!! I was looking forward to a Tummy Tuck this year but looks like that's not going to happen & I'm okay with that, I'm not giving up!!!

Yesterday jogged twice. I'm doing couch to 5km. One of my goals is to be a runner. Seriously this is going to happen. So my last jog was with my daughter age 11. Great kid great mommy supporter of my changing life to healthy living. She jogged with me. Last night she was dying to keep up. She did but you could tell she was done. My program said you have one minute that means 6 minutes cook down to walk. Ok jogged it and went an extra minute. I did 1 km no stopping. I could have gone more but she was done. So I stopped. I finally had control over my breathing and my heart wasn't racing like I was dying. I was good. I love my Ryn and all the possibilities that are open now to my life. I can do it and I know I can now. I didn't give up. I just finished week 3 but I had to do week 1 and 2 for two weeks since I couldn't get a grip and never once did I give up no matter of the pain or how slow I had to jog or how no one wanted to go with me. I stuck it out. I'm crying while writing this because being obese sucks and life sucked and I made excuse no to excerise go to the mall outings . Now I'm back and I feel a renewed and a better person. Honestly if I don't lose anymore wait who cares I am slowly achieving my goal of healthy living and dedication to achieving a better me . I'm still the same person just a healthier choice that you for all your support kicks in the butt and just listing. I appreciate all of you. Oook crying stopped just had to share

      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? 🤷‍♀️
