Today I stopped in to Starbucks. In my former life I was a SB junkie. I have stopped in once to say hello, but today I went in for an iced herbal tea.

said, Wow ! Look at those cheek bones! You are looking great!" Well, that is what made me smile.

Also, my pants and underwear are falling down!

That's great! I would love to join a gym but they are so expensive in my opinion. I would love to find a walking buddy.

Just saw my surgeon and he seemed a bit shocked with my weight loss.

Gotta love it! I lost weight on my own before and I was down to 159. I am a few inches taller than her and I really think she took offense that I was her exact weight.

I never said anything at the time, I guess she didn't like it that I was the same weight as she was.....

My surgeon said he ready to submit to my insurance, Humana, that made me happy. He said it takes about 2 weeks. Anyone else have Humana, and how did it go.

Sorry I don't know anything about Humana, but I think there is an Insurance forum on here.

Wow @@itsmekarenlee! I have actually had a dr apologize to me once as well. He did something that could have caused some for real issues.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
