Hi AnnyBear,

The picnic is going to be Sept 11th in Val's (Veronica) yard. You can bring anything you like...ex: hot dogs, baked chips, fruit, ice-cream :)

The only time I noticed my port was when I would lean against something and press into it too much. I would forget all about it until I looked down and see the scars then I would be like... What da hell did I do! lol.. But It was all good after some of the wieght started coming off.

Yeah, I'm probably one who cannot eat any carbs, because the first yr and a half, i ate no carbs at all and thats when i lost the most wt. but then why did i have surg. wouldnt i have lost it anyway on an Atkins like diet? i wish i could eat what i want just less of it like its suppose to be. oh well, how r u doing val, with the sleeve, can u eat without getting stuck like the band, do u just feel full like a normal stomach would, how is the wt loss since ur surg.

That place is a train wreck~~~:thumbup:

I dont think i need a fill, even though im up and down the same 7 lbs. up at this point, i cant eat anything in the am and then i eat alot of yogurt, but calorie for calorie i feel i am not overdoing the cal count, but def the carb count. even when i did Atkins i only lost 7 lbs, and as soon as i went back to south beach i gained it back...grrrrrrrr... i feel like im doing the same routine i was doing before the surgery :thumbup:

Hey vet, we lost the same amt of wt....lol

      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.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...
