well, I feel i am eating all the right foods, however, i do feel like i can eat more than one might expect after weight loss surg. I am excersizing, maybe it's the portion size. but I am hungry, and why is this happening now I was on a good role until 4 weeks ago.

I don't drink with my meals.

p.s. I don't drink with my meals.

18_1_37.gif You are absolutely in my thoughts Dee. I remember being in the final week before surgery, You will be fine, you'll probably be bit**ing like me in a few months about not losing fast enough..lol Don't worry, be happy.

Band, do you want to meet for coffee Monday or Tuesday this week? Do you work during the day? We could meet after work. I am also available in the late afternoon. Linda would possibly come and we can get her pumped up for her surgery. Linda, we promise, no complaining.

Tues, would be good for me, maybe later in the day cause I have Hoffman at 1:30 and then have to drop a friend off at home. Call me and we will set something up.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
