Teens of the 1960's



Recommended Posts

Just read in a post from 2012 someone calling us the "teens of the 1960's. That has made me laugh all day. Hope this brings a smile to others on this site. Sleeved on May 20th and have been on stall for the last 8 days. Reading that others are experiencing same thing really helps.

Yes, teens of the 60s resonates with me. I graduated from HS in 1969 so I truly am a child of the 60s. Nice to meet other 60s. Here are my details:

sleeved on dec 1, 2014

sw 236

cw190...today was the first time I saw this 190.

I have been on a plateau with no movement on the scale for 2 months. it is discouraging but other things have changed. Dress size 18 to 14

Yesterday I finally bought new bras..I was 44D. Yesterday 38 C. Yes that is progress.

Still fighting daily exercise as a habit.

Never heard that expression before, but I guess I'll embrace it!

I was also sleeved on May 20 and have been plagued with a 9 day stall. I even gained back two pounds which did not make me happy! This morning I had a pleasant surprise when I stepped on the scale and had lost the two regained pounds and also another pound and a half. I have done nothing different and have eaten by my nutrition booklet and I exercise every day. Today I started back to work so I hope just the stress of dropping back into the rat race took another pound off my belly. ???? I will find out when I weigh again on Sunday!

I did finally drop a 1/2 more. I'm not really concerned because I know weight has to come off sometime. So different from how I have felt on different weight loss attempts. An eight day stall would have put me in depression.

I'm so glad to hear that someone else had a 9 day stall that was sleeved on same day. Also glad you lost the 2 pounds and more. I will weigh on Sunday too.

Sharing a recipe I also shared on May sleevers, I made a pancake today with 2 tbs unflavored Quest Protein mix, 1 egg and about 1 tbs of milk to make desired consistency. Also added some stevia and cinnamon. I found it very satisfying with sugar free Syrup. Endless possibilities on expanding recipe. Read it in and older post.

Oh so encouraging that I could be where you are in a few months. I started at 237, am looking forward to those new bra sizes. Down 20 pounds and already getting positive comments. Still having trouble with Water and being nauseous.

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

      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? 🤷‍♀️
