I hope you are holding up okay. I know how hard it is to bear the pain of loss, and like someone else said, watch others we love suffer. I lost my mom to a long illness in July. Many prayers and hugs coming your way, Cindy

Hi All,

I have read and re-read your posts over the past few days--all a blur of grief and mourning. Amazing support and I am over and over again blessed to be part of such a great group here at LBT.

My brother's memorial was intense and beautiful. He had excellent life long friends, who all spoke at the service. His girlfriend of two years was in Australia on business when we got the terrible news, and immediatly flew home. Lots of other friends and family appeared out of no where. My parents live on a lake shore where our family has lived for more than 100 years. All the houses were re-opened (these are summer homes) and they were all full with my brothers friends. Local friends appeared with food to feed us all. The weather was, and still is amazing for this time of year--we were all in the boats and wakeboarding, which was my brothers passion. Besides BMW automobiles,---where he was employed as a client advisor on Wall Street in NYC.

I left my parents alone tonight--they are exhausted and I think need time to be alone together.

Thank you again, my far flung friends for your help during this terrible time.

Here is a recent pix of him doing what he loved--wakeboarding. He was awesome.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
