1 year post op 110lbs down @ goal!



Recommended Posts

Thought I would check back in and share a wee bit about my sleeved life as I will be 1 year post op tomorrow!

Started my journey 275lbs and now 165lbs - at 5"9 this was my personal goal. I have stalled or maintained this weight for about 2 months now whilst lowering my body fat %.

Two exciting things within this year 1) I got engaged! 2) I am doing my first half marathon in 3 weeks!

I eat pretty much whatever I like these days - I do have to be careful as bad habits are re-forming. I have to have chocolate every day! One thing I can attribute my success to definitely is my activity levels running and strength training.

Here is a pic of my trying on my first pair of short shorts ever in my life! I didnt buy them because I still dont think I can pull them off! I'm a mummy! Nice to do up that zip though. Size US 6 :)

Nice, girl go on & buy those shorts. You can definitely pull them off! Own & display that new body. I'll be 1 year post op on 11/7 & still can't believe some of the things I can wear now.

Great job!!!! Keep up the good work!!!!

      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? 🤷‍♀️
