Recommended Posts

2 months out. Did good, but it was at my sisters so think it was easier on me. Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend. @@ppressey24, hope your recovery is quick, so sorry to hear that you are in the hospital.

Update on my meal from yesterday. Was on a steady loose stage. Losing .5 a pound a day since my stall broke. Now since I ate some carbs yesterday, I gained a half a pound. :(

Wasn't worth it. Hope I am not going to stall again. I was going strong. Anyway, what's done is done. Keep on truckin

Im also 8wks out but i spent today in the hospital. Ive done great thus far but have had alot of problems with my bowels. They found out that i have adhedsions that have wrapped around a large part of my bowel making it very difficult for me to have a bowel movement. 8wks out only 3 movements so you can imagine how i feel. I cant get all my fluids down or Protein because i always feel full and bloated. So to the operating room at 730am. Hopefully this will make me feel much better. I wish i couldve had some thanksgiving dinner with my family. Even if it was just an ounce of potatoes. Enjoy the weekend guys and ill update you all tomorrow. Keep me in your prayers

Just wanted to luk that i made out today great. Im in alot of pain but the dr said that there was alot of scar tissue and they were everywhere. But they removed them and he said that since ive had alot of surgeries so they may grow back. But he told me that do not wait around and get to this point again where i cant have a bowel movement. Any signs and theyll need to go back in. This wasnt the roughest time. 3yrs ago, i didnt go for about 2 months. And i was rushed to the er in so much pain because i was impacted and they literally had to go get it. I thought having this surgery would hell relieve that but not. He said with the different test theyve done on my digestive system, its just extremely slow. When yku eat something it should take 90 minutes to get to the part of the stomach to digest. Well, mine took 6hrs. So hopefully between my sleeve and this procedure, ill be back and running....thank you

Last year on Thanksgiving, I was pre-surgery, so I was super careful about not eating much since I was determined to lose the required 5% of my body weight--and I was fine and super motivated. This year I'm 7 months out from surgery and it's become a normal thing to eat a very small amount. So..I had a bit of turkey and a bit of ham (less than 4 oz total), and I was satisfied and could concentrate on the social aspect of talking with my kids and grandkids. It's so helpful to host Thanksgiving and have a huge family! They all know about the surgery, all are a normal weight, and they help me have the right attitude about food (eat to live, not live to eat). I'm incredibly blessed. It was a good day!

Why don't you go to a resterant and pick up plastic stuff or even the store. Unless you want them to look like regular slverware.

      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.
