Hi @Little KansasKitty. Did your urinary problems level out? Last I knew you were still having issues.

Is anyone following a specific exercise plan yet? If so, what are you doing?

Hi! I pretty much just walked daily the first 6 weeks for about an hour a day. It was slow and leisurely. This week since I hit 6 weeks post-op, I've bumped everything up and am moving a little quicker to try to get the heart rate up. Walk/jog for 45 minutes daily and strength training 3x a week. It feels great! Have you started exercise too?

Yes! Thanks for asking. I definitely passed the kidney stone 2 weeks post-op and pulled a muscle during the agony. Two weeks later the muscle was healed and I had no more signs of kidney issues. Wahoo! I'm trying to keep up on liquids as much as possible.

When is your surgery I thought it was this month?

[New challenge 18]

Surgery was 19 June. I have lost 20kg in just over a year. I now weigh 93.9 kgs. Weight loss has stalled over the past month. Good thing, I haven’t put on. Although I have been off diabetic meds since preparation for surgery, my body needs a kick start as it hasn’t quite caught up with the change. I am now on one injection once a week and my weight has started to move again.

My thyroid has now come to show an alert from recent blood testing. Just had a ct scan and won’t find out results until I next see specialist in Sept unless he contacts me.

Prior to op they found I had gall stones and when they become uncomfortable will need surgery as there are many and they are big.

i work on a School crossing and with the strong winds today I was blown about and found it to be quite the workout, lol.

Hi, welcome! You are doing well with the weight loss. For me I eat low fat foods and can pretty much eat anything within reason. I am finding chicken is giving me some problems, sometimes I just don’t seem to be able to tolerate it, even eating small pieces. I assume you are now able to eat raw carrots, etc. I was told if I had 1 cup worth of food for the three main meals that I shouldn’t be having Snacks. I choose to have less at Breakfast so I get a snack in between lunch and dinner. I avoid sugar where I can. Still struggling to get the Water in. I have eaten out and still adjusting to what to order.
