Sugar Not What It Cracked Up To Be!



Recommended Posts

Hey family, so today they came in today at work and they had cupcakes from this place called Sweet Mandy B's. And I have not had any sweets since my surgery in August. Well I decide to have one and before I can lick all the icing off my fingers I start to cough and and gag, well the cupcake did not stay down and one I feel like crap. I have not really thought about sugar or sweets but I thought I would give it a try. Well let's just say it is a lesson learned.

I was sorely tempted this a.m. by a Starbucks gingerbread loaf. And I gave in. Sadly, it did not make me sick (well maybe sick at heart when I saw the calories and forced myself to put in MFP).

Wow that seems like that will be a challenge but you will be able to handle it. I think I wanted to see if anything would happen if I ate it and now I know. I have just been testing the waters today because I had a piece of chicken fried and drank a couple if sips of Sprite pop. Well it's all making me feel sick but not coming back up but boy do I wish it would to make me feel better. I now know what I can have and the affects if I have stuff I know is not good for me.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
