The towel not only wrapping all the way around my body (pre op, major gaposis) but wrapping literally 1.5 times around!post-194772-14533949030515_thumb.jpg

My sleeve win for yesterday occurred at my gym

It's a 2 story gym with stairs and an elevator to access the upper deck where most of the cardio gear is.

Normally I use the gear on the first floor. Knees were shot decadess ago with surgeries from football injuries. Gaining weight every year sure didn't help. Further injuries from hobbies finished them off. :angry:

Anyway it was dead downstairs....zombie land. I could hear people shouting in unison upstairs.....saw them running laps on the indoor track and their were some classes going on.

I took the stairs and found a treadmill with a great vantage point for the next hour or so. Being surrounded by motivated folks is always a good thing.

Had that post treadmill weirdness pumping through my body afterwards that made the stairs a dicey endeavor afterwords. Did that old man stair decline.

Heading back there in a minute, too.....back upstairs.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
