@chubrub and @kristieshannon. I’m So excited for y’all!!

Think someone wrote something about using a cane to walk. If you have one you can borrow that will help. My back hurts from being hunched.

That’s a good idea. I’m going to pick up a toilet seat riser and shower chair when we get to Miami, I’ll grab a cane too.

Haven’t seen all of my tummy. Just had hub check on my belly button. So far so good.

I remember when I looked at my stomach for the first time. I was convinced my belly button was too high! I know they don't move it, the just move the skin around it but it looked really high. I actually went online and looked at underwear sites to make sure it was ok! The problem was I had so much swelling I couldn't tell where my waist actually was. And, after I thought about it, I realized I hadn't seen my belly button on a flat abdomen in so long I wasn't sure where it was supposed to be! After all the swelling went away I finally have a waist now and my belly button is fine! And I can't believe how my measurements have changed!

That’s good to hear bc I’m so scared to look. I’m afraid bc of the swelling and it not looking like the final product yet that I’ll be disappointed even though I know it will take time to look like how it will be. I’ve kept the binder on. Due to shower so I’m not going to look then either. It’ll make me whoozy which I know sounds weird since I work in the OR but on myself that grossed me out but on other no big deal I could eat lunch right after seeing it.

Oh wow, my doctor is awesome. So kind and patient, took a bunch of time and answered all of my questions. I’m going with 375cc moderate profile Gummy bear implants. He said I have a ton to take off my abdomen, I’m looking forward to the pic they’ll take of everything they remove. Surgery at 5:30am tomorrow!

      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? 🤷‍♀️
