How's that going for you? What is your insurance and how far into it are you?

It's going pretty good. I'm about a month into it ...I have kern familys currently .Hows the sleeve treating you?

Going really well. 2 months and down almost 55 pounds. Feeling amazing. I had a really rough first 2 weeks but it wasn't the sleeve. I got really sick from antibiotics. Long story. Lol. How exciting. I'm here if you have any questions. Do you currently work out?

I wish I could make a walking group but I don't have a car. I need someone between Fairfield and Sacramento to be my support/walking buddy and to take me to my mandatory Bariatric support group. I still have not gotten the surgery because my dad cut me off and the insurance went with him. But soon I'll have money to buy my own insurance at least for a year and a half so this is my 3rd time trying I refuse to take no for an answer. I need gastric bypass asap because my health is getting worse due to my weight.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
