Twoterville and feeling fine



Recommended Posts

I am so excited that I just had to share!!! I am out of the 300s and into the 200s!!! I am 8 weeks post of, and know that I have a long way to go, but I am so proud of all that I have accomplished so far.

I go to see my surgeon tomorrow. I was wondering if I would get a fill, but I am staying satisfied for 4 hours after each meal. I feel like what I am doing now is working, so I don't want to mess with success. The doctor knows what is best, so I will follow his suggestions.

Thanks for letting me toot my own horn for a few minutes!!! You all are so inspirational to me and always make me feel like part of a community. I lurk more than post, but this board is truly one of the main reasons I am doing so well.

Toot all you want! What a great job you are doing....feels awesome doesnt it! I agree with you about the fills. I have yet to have had one and often wonder if I should or shouldn't....as you said why mess with something when what you are doing is working!!!! So I say "no, thanks" at my monthly appts and leave a happy and contented girl.

I am 2, YES 2, pounds away from one-derland...and I can't wait to see that number on the scale!

Keep up the good work....this site is awesome with some AMAZING people on here!

Keep us posted!

Congratulations, you're rocking this!! Talk with your surgeon and listen to your own instincts. Last time I went in, I wanted a fill, he didn't want to, after discussing it he won and changed my mind... and I'm very glad he did. For the same reason, don't fix something that's not broke! Good luck in the rest of your journey! =D

I, too, remember that feeling of excitement when the first digit read "2." Now, I'm looking forward to the first digit reading "1." It may be 5+ months from now, but I'm sure it will happen..... Congrats, and welcome to TWOTERVILLE!

      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? 🤷‍♀️
