Have you thought about putting on muscle weight instead of fat weight? Then you'll be ahead of the game and into exercise program before you ever have the surgery.

The gaining weight is OVER! I just got a call back from my Doctors Nurse and she said the sleep study confirmed I have sleep apnea.. I am kinda shocked cause I never knew! So I have made the calls and appointment necissary to get my records to Walter Reed so I can get this process started. I cant wait to be on the "band"wagon too! I am so excited to be healthy SOON!

WoooHooo---time to return the ankle weights, you will be over here in banland soon!!!

Should say sorry about the apnea, but if you never knew you had it, maybe weight loss alone will help it!!! And it helped you!!!

So happy for you!

      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.
