way to go this is so much more than just about the food. it is a whole lifestyle change proud of you

THANK YOU appreciate that and you are spot on!!! I think I saw your reply to someone who said they couldn't work out and you have them a nice reminder of this is how we got here (if that was you:)) but yes exercise is critical. Sure the results of surgery are great but not enough to sustain us. Plus our bodies NEED exercise to be healthy. Even if it's a walk vs hard core workout. Something is better than nothing...we have to push pass our feelings! I was tired yesterday but reminded myself this is a new me and lifestyle I'm committed to but committed to me and good health in 2017 and going forward too. Way to go to you too!

danaymacklin with that attitude you will be one of our success stories. we just have to keep pushing. I sometimes get off track but it only takes a few lbs of gain to jump start me back to doing what I need to do. that is why these boards are so great. between this and several closed Facebook sites I can get all my questions answered and get the encouragement I need. best of luck to you

Is an app that helps you work your way up to doing a 5k. Just search it in your app store. It alternates walking and jogging/running for various times to work you up. You can repeat, pause, whatever.

Awe thank you, I receive that! Yes we do!

Haha I can believe that and know I will be the same not going back to where I came from ever again. Can you recommend or refer me to any Facebook groups? Would appreciate it. Thank you and you too!

      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? 🤷‍♀️
