What a day! I hit 50lbs gone from my highest weight :biggrin: . I walked my second 5k and took 3 mn off my time(so not a big deal but to me huge). Then had my first (hopefully only) sliming episode :biggrin:. To my amazement i kept holding on to that piece of egg roll as if i would be able to eat it after i stopped feeling like i had a burning ball of fire in my chest, how sick am i? I know i ate too fast and took too big a bite (take human bites!). I'm happy this fill i got last thursday is working , but the reminder of the band being there doing its job was intense. Lesson learned i hope.

Congrats on the 50! not so much on the slime LOL

I'm anxious to hit my first 50, myself. I stalled out for a few weeks (moving to mushies and solids) but am back on track. I need to lose .8 to match my ticker (refuse to adjust it up! LOL) which I'm working on now, then on down the road! YAY!

Do you feel me back here behind you? LOL :biggrin:

Congrats!!! 50 pounds feels so incredible doesn't it? The band is a wild ride, sounds like you are taking it all in stride, the benefits are so worth the sliming, PBing and other crazy things that happen. Keep up the great work!!

Congratulations!! 50 pounds lost is fabulous, and doing a 5 k is equally great! Yeah, you!!!

As for learning about PB'ing...well, it is a painful lesson (one which in my experience we have to learn more than once).

You have a great attitude; keep it 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? 🤷‍♀️
