January Dates



Recommended Posts

I'm taking off 2 weeks.. I'm a cosmetologist so my job is not that bad.. Yes I'm on my feet all day but I can take breaks or leave whenever because I'm my own boss kinda lucky I have that advantage.

New question...How much time are you taking off work??

Taking two weeks off. I sit on my butt all day, but I'm a social worker so stress is high. I wanted the relaxation!

Damn this pre-op liquid diet is difficult! I literally feel like I'm starving myself! Anyone else? Today is day 3.

Days 2-3 were the worst. I'm on day 8 now, and it's definitely gotten easier. Still have some times where I'm really hungry, but (most of) the cravings have gone away. It helps that I've lost 7 pounds in the past week!

I almost fell off the sofa laughing when I read this. I felt the same way, started before Christmas. Then the weight started coming off about a pound a day. Anxiety is normal especially when you look at all the risks and long term consequences under a microscope. I deal with it by simply thinking I am making the best decision for my situation with the tools available.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
