It was easier for me the first and second year sleeved. The first year I had no candy because I was only 2 months post op, last year I was at goal and I think I had 1 peice. This year in maintenence for a year it's been hard. I've had several Kit Kats. But I'll be running them off tomorrow and detoxing off sugar again for sure!

I have been wearing it all month to get my money's worth since hopefully it will be too big next year!

HOPEFULLY!?!?!!

GIRL! Did you just feel me roll my eyes at you? By this time next year, you'll be stuffing it full of tissue and wearing it as a pumpkin costume. I have NO doubt.

I've had four or five minis between yesterday and today. They were yummy, but not exciting. I am definitely PMSing or I'd probably only had one or two. This is the only time of the month I really want chocolate.

Four or five isn't great, but considering that pre-op I would have massacred the whole bag, it's great. At three and a half years post op, I also know what I need to do to counter that chocolate. :)

Nope, not tempted too much by candy...on the other hand my hubby is sitting across from me eating a huge bag of freshly popped buttery popcorn. I'm staring daggers right now. Popcorn is my kryptonite. I could live on popcorn alone. Oh I could seriously kill him right now....then take his popcorn...

I am a huge advocate of allowing yourself to eat some junk sometimes, and Halloween seems like as good a time as any to have a few pieces of candy. I didn't have any candy at all, and it didn't occur to me that I might want any. I tend to stay away from sweets because they both make me gain weight and make me feel sick, but it took probably about 2 years post-sleeve to get to a point where I can really say that I don't much care about candy anymore.

I had a couple of pieces yesterday. I figured it was Halloween so go ahead and have a treat. But today is November 1st, not Halloween anymore, so therefore back on the wagon I go! We didn't get many trick or treaters this year, so tonight I did up bags of candy to take to my co workers tomorrow. If it's not in the house there's no temptation for me to eat it.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
