Wow...what a journey! I remember the dreaded 6 months pre-op and now I am 6 months post-op!
Started at 260 and am now 175. Down 85lbs. About another 30 or so to go! So weird to be only 30lbs away from the end goal. Never in my life....20170327_111918.thumb.jpg.2788287d8b9ca2a7e44b89efd2ce7e47.jpg

Oh my goodness you are doing amazing. Way to go. Can I ask what your normal day looks like with food/drink and exercise if any and how much? I had surgery 7/6/16 269 and am just now at 189. [emoji20]

Wow you guys!! Thanks for all of the wonderful messages! Here are my personal rules i live by now... I dont measure and I dont track but I am good at estimating. I try to drink 1 Protein Shake each day (premier is my fav) and/or eat a Protein Bar while on the go (I am in love with the "oh yeah- one" bars). I drink a ton of Water, sometimes with Crystal-Light. I enjoy a cup of coffee every morning. Any breads, Desserts, or sugary drinks are out the door. I make sure I eat my Protein first but I eat all day long. I enjoy running now and hiking! I excersize almost everyday. Even though I just gained 3 lbs, I went down another size...must be building muscle. [emoji6]

      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? 🤷‍♀️
