Looking for widow woman mentor



Recommended Posts

I'm 7 weeks post op and became a widow last week. I'm looking for someone who might be in a similar situation to buddy up with/ mentor. Thank you.

I can't imagine going thru the beginning of this weight loss journey alone. My deepest sympathy to you. I'm not a widow but have lost my oldest brother to Leukemia. Not the same relationship obviously but I do know how hard it is losing a loved one. Blessings to you and your family.

unfortunately i'm pretty sure there are others in your predicament :(

hopefully someone in a similar position will reach out to you

your very recent loss must feel like an open wound

even others/me who have lost a loved one - can not totally have your personal, specific sad feelings

my thoughts being sent your way

i'm sure your loving husband was very proud about your weight loss

for you and DH - continue your well deserved journey towards health, happiness and a longer life

good luck

condolences :(

      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.
