Katy: I am holding you up in prayer. God will see you through this. Know that HE will be guiding the surgeon.

Gee, I wish I lived closer to you, I'd love to be able to help you out.

God's Blessings,

Susan

Yes, Katy, we will all be keeping you in our prayers.

Glad you found a competent surgeon and praying he will be able to successfully correct the other's botched job.17_1_10.gif

Well gang - I gotta brag a bit this morning (for you who know me - you aren't to shocked at that :tt2:)

Guess what I did this morning - 5 freaking miles !!! in 1 hr 20 minutes... That is a personal best for me - the max miles I have ever done is 4 and that's rarely. But after my over indulgence last weekend while visiting Aunt - I really need to bump up the exercise to get the 1.5 left of the 3 I gained off..

I did the crime (had too many sweets) so now I have to do the time - cuz if I don't and I let a 3 lbs gain turn into 5 lbs gain then 10 lbs - I will end up back at 250 before you know it..

So that extra 2 miles I did this morning just shows me how strong I am - that I am now in control and even though I over indulged - I know what has to be done to compensate for it - it's wasn't the end of the world cuz I ate too many sweets - I don't now say oh I blew it - and continue to over indulge (and pple I want to continue eating sweets - I am not a superwoman with super control)

I just don't ever want to look like this before photo taken 5/06 - I rather look like the after photo taken 2/09... And the only way I am going to accomplish this is by eating healthy and exercising...

Wow...great photos, Janet. You are so beautiful. You truly are an inspiration to all of us.

Heading out for a date with DH tonight. dinner and then stop at our local bar and grill to cap the night off. Haven't seen a lot of my friends for over a month because we have been gone. Should be a fun night. We didn't do anything for Valentines Day cuz we were bushed and in some hotel in Orlando getting ready to fly out the next morning. I am thinking that lobster is in order. LOL....I'm worth it, aren't I?

Everyone have a great evening. Better hit the shower.

Hi,

I sure hope everyone is doing well and I am praying for Katy. That awful surgeon should be stopped doing lap band surgery.

I am doing well and now 5 weeks post op and have lost quite a bit of weight. Since the dehydration incident I have followed literally my doctor's and nutritionist orders. I am now enjoying soft foods.

I was given the go ahead and workout by my physician. I am working out on a cardio cruiser for 15 minutes a day at this time.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
