Recommended Posts

Well I just wanted to share alittle with all my family out there. My husband got a job at Boys Haven that is a home here for bad, neglected or abandoned boys. We will be moving there tomorrow. We will have my own apt. which will be nice and all our bills will be paid plus excellent insurance it's only 5 months late I paid out of pocket but oh well anyway I am not going to be resricted to work there but I will be able to help out and make the house my home I am so looking forward to getting to know these boys I guess God knew this was coming that's why I haven't had any of my own. Anyway I feel so excited to have this chance to save $ and love a child actually 10 teenage boys. OH MY GOD WHAT HAVE I DONE!!! just kidding. Anyway I think this will halp me get some structure in my life and hopefully I will start cooking at home and make healthier choices.

      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.
