6 Weeks Post Op!
My world is drastically different! I now walk 3 to 4 miles a day and I’m constantly getting up to move my body! .
I close my Apple Watch rings daily and about 4 to 6 days a week I double or triple them!
I have been released to have all foods. When I reintroduce some I need to start at 1 ounce to see how “Tiny Tummy” likes it!
I am not reintroducing sugars, coffee or junk! I did not pay close to $13,000 to fail! .
I went to get follow up bloodwork done this week and my numbers are all in the perfect range! .
This is my new world and I am happy it!-
Congratulations. It’s a great feeling when the weight disappears & you can start to do so much more. 😁

Week 5 Post Op Report
What a journey! I am 5 weeks from surgery and a total of 24.4 pounds down!
I feel amazing! I’ve incorporated a ton of walking and I’m using my Apple Watch to help me along! I have closed all three of my fitness rings for 11 days straight! Ok, so I am in LOVE with my Apple Watch. I've had it for almost a year and I am just now tapping into it's fitness power!
I keep on top of my protein, vitamins and biotin!
I struggle with water but I average about 50 ounces a day. I have only had one day where I had to “purge” because something did not agree with me. Tuna and my Tiny Tummy still do not agree so I’m going to leave it alone for a while!
I walk on average a little more than 3 miles a day for my exercise but manage to get in at least 13,000-17,000 steps a day depending on how my schedule goes.
I get up every hour and walk around for at least five minutes. Then if I’m watching a show I get up and walk in place during the commercials!
I meet with my doc this week for a progress report.
I have one more week before I graduate from soft foods to the final phase!
I’ve got my cookbooks ready, my food scale ready and my measuring plates ready!
I could NOT be more happy with my progress! I feel amazing and I’m grateful to have this tool!

You got this sis! You totally do.
The ocean is so peaceful. Some days I get blessed with seeing whales, dolphins and seals. It is truly amazing.You can go to under our name at the top left section and click "TICKERS" you can create them there. Then when you lose weight you just go to "my surgery" and change your weight and they will adjust.
On the liquids, do sugar free pop-cycles. They are more like a treat than a liquid and they count as 2 ounces each! Liquids not the funnest part of our journey but who cares....LOL. I do like the IsoPure clear liquid protein drinks, you can get them at GNC. The flavors are ok. I also LOVED Kettle and FIre Broth and Epic Broths so I drank them all the time, it's good for you. It's BONE BROTH. Kinda pricey but the good stuff usually is.

Thank you for the encouragement/positivity!!! I'm going to conquer this liquid phase, moment by moment. I also appreciate the mini tutorial of how to get the ticker. I'm thinking of starting status updates after my pre-op visit with the surgeon on Friday. I really enjoy the personal perspective and experience being shared, without feeling like the thread is being dominated. I look forward to how each person is approaching the wls lifestyle. Thank you lady, good night. Happy Whale watching. I love seeing the dolphins at Hermosa Beach.

So, I have my 2 year appointment with my surgeon and nutritionist next week. I looked at my weight at my 1 year appointment and compared to this morning, I have gained about 5 pounds. Not horrible in a year. I have gotten away from tracking my steps and food so I am going to go back to wearing my FitBit. I also am going to go back to tracking my food in MyFitnessPal. I figure if I can track at least breakfast, lunch and snacks, this should make me more aware of what I am eating and where my protein, fat, sugar and fiber is to make sure I am eating what I am supposed to. I also need to be better about drinking water. I usually get about 75% of the suggested amount but I know that is not good enough. I also adjusted my goal weight. I really wanted to be under 200 pounds but for me, that is just not realistic. I would be satisfied with 225 and really happy with 215. I have to try and remember that this is a marathon and not a sprint; surgery was NOT the finish line and I cannot just coast. I still need to put in the effort to keep off the weight I worked so hard to lose!
