Hi Everyone!

Just wondering how everyone is doing? I haven't heard from some of you in quite some time.

I try to read things but just haven't done much posting.

Stop and say hello and let us know how everyone is doing.

Hugs to all!

Betty

Hey there gal!!!! So glad to see that this link had been started, thanks!

I hope you have been doing great! Me? well, still working at the same place...lot of the same issues, and still a paycheck in hand (feel like a paycheck wh**e sometimes! LOL)

Started developing some acidy feeling at times. havn't lost any weight :biggrin: definatley discovered "slider" foods (very bad) seems like all the foods that are good for me, want to reappear 2, 3, 4 or more times! wayyyyyyyyy too many spit episodes!!!!!

I'm on the next month of talking myself into scheduling that fluro. appt...........I know I need to do it. If nothing other than to make sure things are still where they should be!

I really miss the days (and nights) when we all used to meet up here.

Good talkin' to ya Betty! Maybe somebody else will poke their nose up in here :)

Hi,

I've done well but welcome the chance to meet other "Jersey Girls" in Princeton area who have been banded perhaps for coffee on a Saturday morning or other day. My NJ Bariatrics Support group meets once a month on a day that is not convenient. Think its important for me to try to get together and support our lifestyle changes as a result of LAP-BAND®.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
