Welcome. Where are you tracking your food and calories? If you are on MyFitnessPal, you can FRIEND me and see my food diary. MyFitnessPal tends to have most foods out there and is very convenient.

Chrys did you send me your myfitnesspal name? Mine is retrievertrainer1

I did. I'm Chrys129 on there :)

Edited because I changed the name. Seemed less confusing that way

We are friends, but you have to change your settings --> diary settings -- diary privacy (or something like that) to make your food diary visible to friends.

Welcome Catherine! I was Oct 5th too. So glad you're finally able to post! :) Looking forward to getting to know you better.

I track my food on my fitness pal, bit more for Protein goals right now. My doc said stay under 1000 for weight loss at my size, so I try to stay under 800 personally. I find its hard to get much more than that in though. Been feeling more restrictions lately on soft foods. Funny when I am full now I hiccup and my nose starts to run. Makes me giggle a little. It's so different.

Chrys129, thanks for the info, I will add you as a friend on my fitness pal. Are you hungry often?

So today I hit the point where I officially have less than 100 lbs to lose. 99.2 to goal! :D

High weight 261

Surgery consult weight 254

Surgery weight 240

Current weight 228.2

It's still unbelievable to me that it's really happening.

Shakti, try to identify if it is tummy hunger or head hunger. I keep busy so I do not think of food. Don't know what you do for exercise.

Probably a combination of both, though as I enter week 4 I am finally feeling the restriction aspect. I am not exercising yet but I know I need to start. I have 1 'bad' knee.

I used to enjoy swimming - does anyone else swim and find it an effective calorie/fat burner?

It took about 2 days once it was in their systems, however my Drs. office sent it certified returned receipt and they actually received it 2 weeks prior to that.

The only required a letter of "medical neccesity" from the Drs. office.

I kept calling Humana but they will NOT tell you anything over the phone. It wasn't until I received a letter in the mail, my Drs. office received one as well.

Humana Rocks!!! tongue.gif

mary, I have no clue how surgery turned into algebra..lol

      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!!
