Rose, I found the wii fit at Best Buy. You need to watch the sales papers. Target and Best Buy advertise it when they will have some in. You will proabably have to be there when the store opens to get 1. Best Buy opened at 11 this past sunday and they sold out around noon. There is a weight limit of 330 for it I think. My daughter set it up. I worked this morning and did my 1 hour of Water arobics. I need to go back to work around 12:30. I probably wont be home until 6:30. Laurel

Work went well this morning. The afternoons are always more interesting. Right now I only drive High School kids so most days are great. I did have one kid who is a BIG pain. I have to watch him all the time. I did pack up Protein Snacks and Water for whenever I get stuck at last minute trips. They hit me up this morning already for tonight. But atleast it will not be a late one. This is my last year of the crazy schedule. Next year I will have more school runs and more stable hours. But it was a blessing to have this surgery done now because I had the time to do all the running around I had to do. Tomorrow I have to do a trip in the morning. I will try to walk on my down time. It just sucks getting up at 5am again. lol Laurel

I am hoping in the end to get down to 190. I am 5"10 1/2" tall. My doctor is hoping I get down to about 150 but I can't even remember when I weighed that. I think I was about 180 when I graduated from HS. I walked over 1/2 mile tonight too. I am tired. Hope we all have a great day tomorrow. Laurel

Hey ladies,

It's been awhile since I've been on here. I went to Houston for the holidays and had a great time. I've been eating some solid foods (I'm still favoring mushy foods though) and I've found that some of the easier foods to eat are higher in calories and fat so I'm working on making better food choices. I didn't lose any weight over the holidays but my doctor gave me the okay to start working out yesterday (no weight lifting though) so I'm hoping that I will start losing again real soon. Hope you all have been doing well and happy new year to you all.

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

        I had about 6 months between deciding to do surgery and getting scheduled. I came across the book The Pound of Cure by Dr. Matthew Weiner, a bariatric surgeon in Arizona, and started to implement some of the changes he recommended (and lost 13 lbs in the process without ever feeling deprived). The book is very simple, and the focus is on whole, plant based foods, but within reason. It's not an all or nothing approach, or going vegan or something, but focuses on improvement and aiming for getting it right 80-90% of the time. His suggestions are divided into 12 sections that you can tackle over time, perhaps one per month for a year if a person is just trying to improve nutrition and build good habits. They range from things like cutting out artificial sweetener or eating more beans to eating a pound of vegetables per day. I found it really effective pre-surgery and it's an eating style I will be working to get back to as I am further out from surgery and have more capacity. Small changes you can sustain will do the most for building good habits for life.

        That sounds awesome. I'll have to check that out thanks!

      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? 🤷‍♀️
