My finger tips are now hydration meters...

Weird weird weirdness

My fingertips now go wrinkly if I'm not hydrated enough. Handy meter to keep an eye on it, but so weird. Anyone else getting wrinkly fingers?

Very interesting. I have not had a problem getting fluids in. And my pee is really clear so i am super happy about that. I was worried pre surgery that hydration would be a real problem and I would be one of those that had to go back to hospital and get iv fluids, but so far I really have been able to drink a lot. Here's to hoping everyone's fingers plump up

I have issues getting my fluids. I just want to skull them back, because it's been damn hot here, but I can't. Instead i go jump in the local pool. Doesn't help with the wrinkles, but cools me down and treading Water is doing wonders for my calves.

At least my fingers are a good reminder to go sip on something. I'm also making snow from crystal lite ice cubes shoved in the blender. It's like a sorbet.

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

      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? 🤷‍♀️
