What are your daily numbers?

Not sure if you are religious but I think of this verse when relatives interfere. When my husband and I struggle it is because we are two not one. Mark 10:6-9 "But at the beginning of creation God 'made them male and female.' 'For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh.' So they are no longer two, but one. Therefore what God has joined together, let man not separate." Good luck!

I am doing good. My only area of work is getting in enough walking. Semply-I use isopure protein. It has 42g of protein in 3.8ounces. It really helps me get in 60-70g.

Great skin 4 days out
Mama Spike replied to FitnFabfor2014's topic in Weight Loss Surgery Success Stories
Interesting. My skin actually freaked out after surgery. I was dry plus breakouts. I had to get a facial which helped. -
I am struggling with liquid and chewable vitamins. I switched to gummy vitamins this week (3weeks out) and make sure I really chew them. I figure gummies are better than none.

2weeks sleeved and still no energy. Is this normal?
Mama Spike replied to nana2mo's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I am 3 weeks out and exhausted. Just followed up with my surgeon. He said I will be tired for a month and just make sure to get in all my protein, which I am. Hang in there! -

# of nights in hospital?
Mama Spike replied to kimr's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Okay, I must be abnormal. I didn't stay the night. I was scheduled for surgery at 10:45 but started close to 2. I was ready to go by 7:30. The doctor was hesitant to let me go but I was out by 9pm. Anyone else not stay the night? -
Congrats barefeet! I have been bouncing up and down and up! Luckily it is gradually going down. Down 15 so far.

Mama Spike replied to FSU GIRL's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I was blurry for a week but the anesthesiologist warned me that the Scopolamine patch would do that. -

I use it when I am out. I am very careful not to take too large of sips when using a straw.

Thanks. Luckily mine is online too. I just didn't want to lose my momentum. I want to graduate in 2016! -

I think your life has a ton of activity! Have you thought about getting a Fitbit? I got mine so I could increase my steps during the day since getting to the gym is hard for me. -
Has anyone decided on a goal gift? If so, what is it? My goal is 150 and I asked my husband to get me a new wedding band if I hit my goal. Would love to hear other's planned gifts.
