Suko67 52 Posted May 7, 2013 Happy Birthday and Congrats! I didn't know we had sleeve "birthdays". But hey!! It sounds like a great idea to me! We must have been sleeved about the same time (April 16 for me) So it's my 3 week birthday today! 3 weeks ago today, I had THE surgery!! I'm celebrating losing 1/4 of my goal weight loss today!! I'm a lowish BMIer I need to lose 80 pounds, I've lost 22.5 lbs as of this morning!! I'm going to Celebrate with two different-2 mile fast paced walks with my husband and my dog !!

No cake for me! What did everyone else do for their first birthdays? Happy birthday! My birthday is next month! So it will be my first birthday with the sleeve No cake here, it's part of learning to Celebrate the events in life with people you love doing things you love and not having the first thought be.., "what kind of food do we want" Weird concept huh?

Suko67 52 Posted May 8, 2013 Sent from my iPad using VST Sorry for the double posts!! I'm still getting used to the workings of the VST! I wanted to report that I met, and surpassed my initial exercise goal for my 3 week "sleeveaniversary". I got in 2, two and a half mile (fast-paced) walks today for a total of approx. 5 miles!!! Yay!! I read about people having an immediate increase in energy shortly after surgery--but I thought it was an urban legend! I used to huff and puff going up a flight of stairs!! Gotta love the endorphins from a good day of exercise!! Sent from my iPad using VST 1 wynk11 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
