My belly is winking at all of you! She's very happy today. All that rash around the whole thing from a years' worth of bandages can finally heal. And I can put nice lotion on now, winky wink.

I agree with you DeLarla. It looks like a purple mouth with teeth around it (LOL). I'm so glad you're better!!!!

This is the first week I'm able to look at the "before" pics of this wound. Trust me (and ask Penni if you don't believe me) but the pictures don't do the thing justice. It looks like a surface wound from the pictures, but it was the size of a huge golf ball in depth with a 2nd gaping cave off to the side deeper into my belly. You could stuff a sock in it. (Okay, a kid's sock.) So thank you all for being happy with me. This is huge to me. Champagne-this-weekend-huge.

Jack, I've heard that "sage" thing many times before, but till this day I don't know what a sage is or what it's saying, but it must be a good thing, huh? Today I am clearing all the surgical supplies off my bathroom counter! I'm even in the mood for an order of those dancing bananas.

I'm so happy for you Lisa, now that your wound has finally healed. You have been through so much and continue to be such an inspiration to me.

Thank you.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
