Prayers!!! Sent from my LG-H811 using the BariatricPal App Thank you so much!!!

Thank you all. It means a lot to have your care and support.

And lots of blood in urine.

Ur in my prayers!!! Sent from my LG-H811 using the BariatricPal App Thank you all so much for your kindness. It means so much to me!!!

Thanks everyone. Out of surgery and in recovery. Being admitted to the hospital for monitoring.

Actually, the Urologist is coming for me right now and taking me straight into surgery.....

And now I find myself in the ER with an 8mm kidney stone. Surgery later today or tomorrow. Fun, fun.

I don't know about that, but it is very kind of you to say!! Thank you!!

I had my labs done at 3 months and my cholesterol is down significantly as well.

Thank you so much!! I appreciate it!!

I can't wait to see what future months hold.

20 hours and 70 miles last week.

Thank you both. I really appreciate it!!!

I hit my goal for this challenge and am down to 266.4. Yay!!!

When you've had to tighten your FitBit around your wrist 4 times in the last 3 months.

Any time I feel like I am veering off course, I go back to the basics. Protein, Protein, PROTEIN. I know it seems quite simplistic...and it is actually. So, when you are getting off course then spend a few days with your liquid Protein shakes...just like during the Pre-Op and initial Post-Op diets. That course of action has helped me, so maybe it can help you as well. And also get that exercise in!! I can't go a day without my walk to commune with nature. Good luck!

Went out earlier today and found all kinds of blister aids to help our footsies out.

I honestly can't answer your question because it is different for everyone. But I personally am thrilled I had the surgery. Best decision for my health and well-being I have ever made. Lost almost 90 pounds in 3.5 months and gone from walking only a few feet to miles and miles. Good luck with whatever choice you make.

I have been walking a lot. On my lunch break at work and when I get home. Some of those were long hikes. Helps with nice weather. I am paying for it though. Here is a picture of my smallest toe. IMG_2646-001.JPG I know how bad that hurts. Hope it heals fast!!

Also, had a few people ask how I get so many steps in a day/ week. And since we're sharing war wounds...This is how.....LOL.

Yeah, we walk and hike A LOT on top of biking some when we have time. Blisters have been a problem for both of us even though we have been specially fitted for shoes and use moisture wicking socks (on top of blister band aids and mole skin).

That is great news! We love cruising!!

I'm down to 273.8 this week.

Got in 17 hours of exercise this week. Too much in all honesty.
