Hey everyone. Sorry ive been MIA. Ive had A LOT going on the last month or so, as im sure many of you have. Just a simple friday outfit but i wanted to say hi to you all. Hope all is well. ❤️

Virginia has reinstated electives, so I'm wondering do I call my surgeon's office or do I wait for them to call me? I don't want to be delayed due to lack of activity on my part. But I don't want to pester them either. Hard to know which way to go. At least it is progress! Stay strong and healthy, friends.

Lookin' good, Jake! Great job!

I’m scheduled for my sleeve on May 13th and I’ve only told my spouse, children and my mom. People ask too many questions and give out too much judgement. I chose to just tell those that I know are supportive of my decisions. Everyone has to make their own decisions on sharing or not sharing.

No. Just a bad cough. I’m now quarter for 2 weeks. So I guess it’s martini’s and sun for me

...we’ll be waiting...

I'm just messing around in my closet. Trying to throw some combinations together, lol!

Looking wonderful KaysMommy... I think you look thinner than before the lock down.. how did you manage that!! lol

Hey @chayarg, its been a while...it IS tough during quarantine when we just sit around at home all day Are you still tracking food and your weight? I had sort of slacked off a bit...I still track, but not as meticulously as I did 2 months ago. And I had basically stopped running for 3 months after PS. And I would sometimes miss a daily weigh in or two. As a result, I gained a few pounds. So I went back to tracking everything, started running again (no more PS open wounds, yay!), stopped eating past 7pm, and made sure I got on the scale every morning. I knew this routine worked for me, so I figured I should get back to it. (ASIDE: Now that I think of it, my slacking sort of coincides with my sabbatical from BP...co-incidence?) Anyhoo, I'm rooting for you to continue your downward trend ❤️ #youCanDoIt

OMG... I just realized... I am officially in MAINTENANCE! Didn't even occur to me when I hit my weight goal. I will finally see my nutritionist again at my next 3 month appointment in mid-May. Curious as to whether or not she will tell me to do anything different. I feel like I am already eating in Maintenance Mode. I don't measure everything, but I do watch what I eat. I occasionally eat a LITTLE junk, but mostly healthy. I am walking a ton. Today I did an UPHILL hike which for me is very hard because of my tachycardia. My HR gets over 145 going uphill and then I get VERY short of breath so I usually end up stopping every 40 feet or so to catch my breath. You know what? Today I hiked uphill like a NORMAL person! I was excited. Back to food... I know I can eat more than most bariatric folks in a sitting, so I have to watch that. But what is funny is I can still eat faster, but can still only take 5-6 sips at a time lol. Anyhow... I feel I am still on the right track and don't deviate too much.
