    balance is way off

    Oh no, I fall enough as it is! I have been falling for a couple years, when I was in for my surgery the nurses kept asking me how I got the injury to my leg, seemed like they didn't believe me. As for Vertigo, I get it a few times a year for the past 10 years. It is no fun!

    Not really a rant but just frustrating

    Fluffychick, I am so happy to hear that this haggard look might go away. I had a neighbor tell me I needed to go home and rest that I looked so tired! 😊

    ❄DEC 2019 CHALLENGE❄

    I spend time in nature every day. I will start doing meditation each day, I have the "Calm" app on my phone. 1. My personal goal is to get into an exercise routine, I love yoga! 2. I had a revision from a Vertical Banded Gastroplasty to a RYN. 3. My weight has stalled at 186 and my BMI is 30 4. My favorite winter activity used to be baking breads and cookies, guess I will find something to replace it!

    Sorry you have been having such a rough time. You can do this and we will be with you along the way! Welcome to the group!
  8. I made Turkey Tetrazzini tonight. A regular recipe for my husband. Mine had zoodles instead of noodles. He didn't even know it was fat free soup!

    Turkey Leftovers

    I meant to post this to food b4 and after but I screwed up lol
  10. I am an exception, they took my stomach because it's terrible condition, so all I have left is the pouch. They also took my gall bladder which was a surprise to wake up to.
  11. I took vyvanse after my sleeve along with a couple others and had no issues, it should be okay!

    First Post Sleeve Thanksgiving Meals?

    Mostly I had turkey, but I also had a small spoon of green bean casserole, Sugar free sweet potato casserole (not the best), mashed potatoes/gravy, and stuffing. I ended up eating a spoon of each. Then and hour later I had 2 bites of pumpkin pie with sugar free whipped topping. Oh, and we all had a glass of stout craft beer (barley any carbonation, I didn't even burp lol) Hope everyone had a great day!

    No leak test done?

    The reason you are not feeling restriction is that what you are eating/drinking are slider foods meaning they go right through your pouch. Once you are onto eating a more solid diet you will begin to feel the restriction. Hope that helps!

    Food log app

    I like www.myfitnesspal.com It is a free app that you can upgrade to a paid service. I use the free one for now. It is pretty easy to use also!
  17. We raised our own Turkeys one year, they lived in the coop with the chickens. I think they thought they were chickens. They are very entertaining and tasty!

    Insurance and body lift ... IT'S A JOKE

    My TT was completely covered by insurance. Guess that was lucky!
  19. I have noticed a few posts on clothing recently and wonder if it would be possible to set up a clothing swap forum? Or if it would even be feasible?

    Richard Simmons

    Years ago when I had my VBG I started out exercising to Richard Simmons videos, they are fun, goofy and they get you moving. All I did after that surgery was walk 2 miles a day and then one of Richards CD's. Well, I have decided that today is the day. I actually feel really good for the first time since surgery so out came my dancing shoes. Wish me luck!
  21. I also have lines where there were none before..... I don't think Oil of Olay is going to cut it!
  22. Thanks for sharing, that is really interesting!

    Married with WLS

    I have been married for 28 years (on Leap Day) This is the second time we have gone through this and I would say we are stronger than ever. My husband weighs 135/140, and very active. He bought us a tandem bike and we plan to take advantage of the trails here in Missouri next year.
  25. I am going to really concentrate on getting my water in. I know it could mean I will eat less. Right now I drink a 10 oz. cup of coffee, a 16 oz. glass of crystal light (with Benefiber) first thing in the morning. I am getting to the point that I get some pain (fullness) if I drink to fast, so it is hard to hydrate!
