Fabulous February Post-Op's



Recommended Posts

I'm just as baffled. They told me they'd just check it at my 4-month appointment with all my other bloodwork. It doesn't make a damn bit of sense. Oh well. All's well that ends well?

Odd aside: I've lost a grand total of 2 pounds in the past month' date=' and yet in the last week or so people have been commenting on my weight loss again. Are their eyes just finally adjusting to what they're seeing? Am I wearing clothes (baggier or tighter) that are showing it off more? Or did it all just jiggle it's way around so that some parts of me suddenly look thinner?

I get compliments at the strangest times!!!!! I'm in the throws of frustration be because I've lost 2 pounds in 3 weeks and I hear !omg it's just falling off you now!!!! My theory is it takes time for it all to shift around. I had a day last week where I developed creek bones like over night....totally weird!!!

I get home from a 9 day vacation in the Florida keys tomorrow....longest I've been off a scale in forever. I can't decide what I'll see....eating out a lot, mostly seafood, mostly grilled but we have had our quick sandwich days too which are carb heavy but just had to grab and go sometimes.....also have walked and walked and walked, and swam, and snorkeled.....I think I'll be down a pound or two but we'll see Sunday! (Darn well better poop before then, the vacation has my bowels all messed up). Vacation withRNY was so much nicer than vacation with a fickle band!!!

Things I did that I'd never do before: wear a bathing suit all day,even shopping,no cover-up, wear a strapless sundress all day, wear a tank top with nothing over it.....and they all looked good :). It's been an awesome week.

Yay for cute clothes!!!!! I feel so weird shopping in the 'normal' section....also keep grabbing clothes that are too big. Brain hasn't grasp how much smaller my butt is yet I guess :)

I totally understand... I really don't know how to shop small. I was so happy not to have to buy some thing with sparked air flowers... That's what all the bigger clothes were like.. Not that there's anything wrong with that. I'm just happy I had choices. Bought two really cute fitted tops' date=' black walking shorts (not capris) and a really cute robins egg fitted dress with a belt!!!

I love your dress! That is right up my ally! A cute pair of strappy sandals and you are all set!

I just reread my last post... don't you love auto correct on your phone? instead of saying sparked air flowers i meant "buy clothes with sparkles or flowers". It just seemed like those use to be my only options other than yoga pants

      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.
