This probably falls into the TMI category, but what the heck. I had my first "never trust a fart" incident today while walking home from work. There was nothing I could do but soldier on and deal with the situation when I got home. I'd heard of this phenomenon and didn't really know how it could happen--until it did.




On another topic, I know that we are all coming up on our one-year anniversaries. It would be really nice if everyone could check in on their anniversary dates and let us know how they are doing, perhaps with a recent photo. Just a thought! I'm the last of the February group (because my surgery was actually on March 2), but I promise to do so when my date comes!


Lol, while I haven’t had that yet since surgery, there have been some close calls.
My surgiversary will be in 3 days, so I’ll try to remember to post Thursday with a before and a current.

My surgiversary is tomorrow. Knowing me I'll forget to hop on lol. It's been a great year, but I'm definitely at a standstill. I am not sure what the next move is... I guess really really paying attention to my food and maybe now introducing some exercise. I'm leaning more towards being vegan from being vegetarian... I'm going to see how that goes dietwise. I feel that maybe going vegan will actually help me with my Protein intake as it has to be more balanced in diet.

Onwards and upwards!

edit: It says my surgery date was 5th on the sidebar, but I'm pretty sure it was 4th. I need to double check now haha.

edit again: nope - it WAS 5th Feb. ok, well I'm 2 days early.

Hi all, so my original surgery date was 1/31/20 but had to be pushed due to having kidney stones and two procedures back to back in order to take care of them. My new date is next Wednesday, 2/12/20 in the morning! Can’t believe it’s almost here, finally after all this time!! I’m down 20lbs, currently at 252lbs. Surgery will be at GBMC with Dr. Bello. Im having the sleeve done. I’m getting nervous but excited at the same time. I’m ready for the next phase of this journey to start.

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!

      Today was rough...
      I've been experiencing a headache all day today that just won't go away. I'm thinking it's now progressing into a migraine. Does anyone else get headaches from taking vitamin B12? I did some research and learned that usually a lack of B12 causes headaches. But I've noticed when I take it, I have reoccurring headaches. 😫
