I've been stuck at home so I've been binge-watching The Walking Dead. Dtrain84, has anyone told you that you resemble Lenny James, the actor that plays Morgan? He is FINE, but he doesn't have your guns!

I'm so glad you posted about your continued success and showed us photos of you looking toned and fit.

You've helped me get over a mini-depression after hearing one person say that her bariatric surgeon said that *every* patient gains 10-15% of their weight back around three years post-surgery, seeing a photo of a three-year post-op who had gained back about 40 lbs., and then having my primary care physician tell me that all of her bariatric patients so far have gained back all of their weight.

So thank you again!

You're welcome! I known a few friends who had surgery and some of them gained a percentage of their weight back, I've also have some who have kept the weight off for over 10 years. I just continue to do what I did in losing weight by staying active and my food choices.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
