WAS LIKE MUSIC TO MY HEARS



Recommended Posts

Rcv'd a call from my surgeons office Dr Christopher Reilly, Houston TX stating they were calling to schedule surgery !!! I had the option of 9/26 or 10/10. Knowing how bad I am anticipating this I wanted to take the 9/26 but went for 10/10 just to build more vacation time after unexpt'd vacay with my sick child. :unsure: That's neither here are there but whats really got me going is that IM FINALLY SCHEDULED and it was the easiest process when I thought it would be much harder. So to any of you beginning this journey my words of continuing encouragement is STAY PRAYERFUL, STAY POSITIVE, AND A LITTLE PATIENCE GOES A LONG WAY!! :D

      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? 🤷‍♀️
