Thanks, I feel great. I didn't have a ton of issues before surgery but I do have a ton more energy and my knees and joints are all much happier these days!

You are kicking it !!!!

You were wise to take action to get ahead of the issues before they started showing up. Very well done !!!

Thanks Dub!

I have had too many family members die way too young from weight related health issues that could have been prevented so I knew it was time to get this under control.

Aww, thank you. I have gone the low carb route. I only drink Water or the Vitamin Water zero (I have done the water for a long time before surgery as well). I stick the the basic rules of eat Protein first then veggie then if any room carbs. Most days I end up at about 70 grams Protein, 40 or less carbs, and about 800 calories. I do eat a bit of things I like here and there but I always count it in my numbers for the day and it's always just a bite.

Congratulations on starting your journey with this. Your off to a great start!

      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? 🤷‍♀️
