Be proud of me folks. I am now remotivated to me!!!:clap2:

Now....Puddin (please see below)

You're a sweetheart. I don't have a workout buddy, but I do have to pay for a gym membership to get myself motivated enough to go. My work actually has a really nice gym (I work at a university), but I have to pay money so I don't "waste" it by not going. Plus, my gym has TV's on every machine, so I can watch my favorite shows while working out. After awhile it was just second nature, getting my butt to the gym every day. Oh yeah, and my gym is within walking distance to my house. That helps a LOT!

I got those shakes at my gym. I think you can go to www.myapex.com and get it online with free shipping, or I'm pretty sure they sell it at all 24 Hour Fitness centers.

Well I also pay for a gym membership. However I "waste" my money. And it's not within walking distance and it's an all women's gym. they close at 8 on the weekdays 6 on fridays and 12 on saturdays. Sunday's they're closed. I have a 3 year membership and this is my second year. SO....I need to get my butt back. I used to have an excuse. My old position had me working until 6:30 4 days out of the week, I still had to pick up my son from daycare and fix dinner and make sure he had his bath. But now... I only work until 5 and I don't always pick my son up. So I can go. I just have to find my gym clothes. Next year after my membership is up, I'll just do classes at the local community college. That should be fun. I'll look up that website for those shakes.

cupcakes and ice cream and donuts.

oh my.

I'm only 2 weeks out, and reading this stuff gets me crazy.

how do you still lose weight and eat that stuff?

perhaps, when I start to really lose weight I'll figure it out.

I just realized, I don't get this band thing at all.

Nothing is what I thought it would be.

I'm not like I thought I'd be.

and the way I thought I'd eat - isn't.

I think I'm getting depressed.

Awwwww no Randi don't be depressed. Just stay on the boards and read all you can. When reading what people are eating you have to take into account if they are banded, how long, portion sizes, how often they eat it, are the losing weight and are they exercising.

If I am counting my calories and exercising then I can eat whatever I want.....in moderation. Those calories still count. Yes the goal is to eat healthier but we did not need a band because we did not have some bad eating habits. We are trying to resolve those bad habits as we go along.

So Randi, drink your Water, take your medicine, take your Vitamins, count your calories and exercise EVERYDAY>(WALKING 4X A DAY FOR 15 MIN DOES WONDERS) GOOD LUCK RANDI:welldoneclap:

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

        I had about 6 months between deciding to do surgery and getting scheduled. I came across the book The Pound of Cure by Dr. Matthew Weiner, a bariatric surgeon in Arizona, and started to implement some of the changes he recommended (and lost 13 lbs in the process without ever feeling deprived). The book is very simple, and the focus is on whole, plant based foods, but within reason. It's not an all or nothing approach, or going vegan or something, but focuses on improvement and aiming for getting it right 80-90% of the time. His suggestions are divided into 12 sections that you can tackle over time, perhaps one per month for a year if a person is just trying to improve nutrition and build good habits. They range from things like cutting out artificial sweetener or eating more beans to eating a pound of vegetables per day. I found it really effective pre-surgery and it's an eating style I will be working to get back to as I am further out from surgery and have more capacity. Small changes you can sustain will do the most for building good habits for life.

        That sounds awesome. I'll have to check that out thanks!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
