hello2brenda,

Best of luck to you in your weight loss journey. It is not just a process of losing weight, but also of learning many things about yourself. You’ve already started with that important realization that you rely a lot on food. Maybe you can build on that as you figure out how to change your relationship with food and find something else to fill the hole and keep away the boredom.

Hello2brenda,

How are things going with you? Have you come up with things to do instead of eating because of boredom. I like to read, but I want so badly to do something I've never done before because of my weight. I think I want to start running when I'm cleared to do so.

I'm just beginning this gastric bypass walk. I'm a little excited and scared at the same time. My primary care doctor signed off, passed the physic evaluation, one more pre-op support group to attend (though I plan on attending them post-op as well), seeing the Dietitian-working on the 10lbs pre-surgery loss, waiting to get schedule for sleep study, am scheduled to see the exercise physiologist next week. Then all of my pre-op stuff will be finished. I can't wait to get finished with all the pre-op stuff so that I can get a date for surgery.

Sending positive thoughts to you!!!

      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.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!
