I just made the mistake of doing this alone, with very little support and now I feel lonely and I'm doing good. I'm down 32 pounds since surgery but my emotions are crazy.

Emotionally it is a roller coaster ride. 32 lbs is amazing. Are you single? If so, and I say this in a very serious, supportive tone... take your new you for a new ride on Tinder and see how your responses are. That always cheered me up. If your not single, its still fun to see if you can make your spouse jealous. When they become jealous, you then know that you have done something right.

Lol I was in a three year relationship but we broke up about ten days before my surgery, I'm not really ready for attention lol I want to focus on myself! I went back to work this week and that has helped, getting dressed up feels good!

Just wait until clothes start to not fit and be really loose. It is great but also annoying. This is a sign of progress.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
