Hello out there. I am new to the blog world and learning. I had lapband surgery May 16th. Pre-surgery weight was 240 lbs, Surgery day weight was 230 and I just hit 211 today. I feel great!! I looking forward to my first fill on July 7th. I really have no restriction now and hope to feel a difference after the fill.

I have enjoyed reading this blog for a couple of months now so decided to jump in. My first question is......how do you get the ticker added to the bottom of your posts?

I will be watching the site for a report on how your fill goes. I am anxious to get that "full" feeling because I think that any day now the self-control is going to fail. I'm also a little unsure about what to expect at the fill. Is it easy, does it feel uncomfortable, will I feel naseated or whatever........you get the idea. Good luck on Monday!

To make a ticker just slick on mine and then choose "create your own ticker" then make it and copy the code when you are done and paste it in your signature.

This is funny. I have three Airedale girls; Holly 5yrs & 85 lbs, Maggie 6 yrs and 65 lbs, and Teeny Tiny Teri who is 12 yrs and only 50 lbs because she has unoperable cancer and is sliding downward. Isn't Maggie the perfect name for an Airedale? My husband and I can't imagine life without the dales.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
