OMG... first let me say that I am not happy to hear you are not feeling well, but I thought I was the only one not feeling well. I had surgery on dec 5 and Everyone else seems like they can do a marathon but I don't right now. I still feel weak and I have intermittent pain as well. I walk but by no means is it fast due to I still feel very sore. I'm glad someone else can relate. I was starting to feel like something was wrong with me. Hope we both feel better soon????????????

I know.., it's just discouraging a lil bit to hear some people darn near running 6 miles and I'm like "what's wrong with me"... but like you said we are healing and everyone is different.

Hi! I'm new to this app and would love to join you all! My husband and I are both having the sleeve gastrectomy on Monday, December 19. Most times I'm glad we're doing it together since it makes me feel a bit braver with him by my side, and then other times I think we must have lost our minds when we made the decision to do it on the same day!

@@kenz, thanks for sharing about your cousin, that's exactly what we envisioned- resting, healing AND losing together we've enlisted a few folks to visit us. I love that we're all surgery date buddies!!!

      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!!
