Heading to the hospital in about three hours. Trying to get some last minute things packed up and ready, and finishing some laundry. I slept well last night with the help of my friend Ambien. We are getting a foot of snow today and I thin I am more anxious now about my husband having to drive me to the hospital in it. School for my kids has been cancelled and I hear the roads are pretty bad. I have been praying all morning for all of my surgery buddies today, those who have yet to have their procedure and those who are already on the losers bench, and for all of our surgeons. I will try to post something tonight if I am feeling up to it, bringing my iphone, kindle fire, and laptop so I am sure I can get one fired up enough to let you know how I am doing. Sending love and prayers to all!

Hello' date=' doing as well as can be expected. I too have not felt hunger but I still try my best to keep up with my meals and liquids. I still have quite a bit of pain on my left side and have to get around with a cane. However, it is slowly improving each day. I haven't ventured out of my apartment since my two night stay at the hospital. So I just walk Laos around the apartment to get moving. I have also had a horrible sore throat. Hurts to swallow but I am doing salt Water gargle. I hope it goes away soon the only real relief from it is sf Popsicles. Hope you are doing well Montage.[/quote']

Hope your throat start starts to feel better :) I am 5 days post op. I also have not had any hungry feeling yet either.

      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.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!
