Is anyone awake? I really do not know how to user he site as proficiently from my iPhone but its easier to pick up than my computer. I'm just really feeling bad this morning. It is 3:15 am here. I went back to work yesterday and had a horrible day. I guess I was not expecting to be treated so poorly at work by my coworkers and boss. Like what I did was a waste of time and that I had somehow inconvenienced them in some way. Guess I was just reaching out to see if anyone else had experienced anything like that at work or if I'm just the only unlucky one with a toxic work environment.

I am sorry you had it so rough. Hang tight....it gets better, though it may not feel like it right now. You do this for you. I am almost 8 months out, and over 110 lbs lost. Those early days are so tough. You feel like crap, your energy level stinks....you want the weight to be gone..NOW!....but its a one step at a time, one day at a time process. And it will go. One day, you will wake up look in the mirror and not recognize yourself. Its all good. (Hug)

Remember it took years to gain & even if it takes months to slim it's still a process.

Does anyone know how much weight is the normal loss in the beginning?

They told me 50 in the first 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? 🤷‍♀️

      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.
