Leslie,

That's not that bad!!! I'm glad you enjoyed yourself and were able to eat all that stuff! You'll probably lose 6 pounds this week because you ate something 'bad'!

Hang in there girl...

I was able to eat CiCi's yesterday - I was really loose, today I'm super tight and having trouble with Breakfast. Fickle Band!

Anything to add: I had church (all day it seems) and committee meetings plus had to go to Sam's to shop for my Senior Adult Ministry event today. I left the house at 8:30 a.m. and didn't get home until after 5 p.m. I was having a tight day and I couldn't really get the chicken salad down. I was in a meeting so I was afraid to try too hard for fear I'd erp in front of everyone! Because I was unkind to my body, no food really or Water, I had the worst headache when I got home, the shakes, and vision issues. I know my blood sugar was in the pooper. Then I was so hungry I ate too fast and too much. Not enough to make me PB, but I was so miserable for the rest of the night. All and all not a very good day!

Date: October 6th

What Did You Eat Today?: 3 cups coffee; 1/2 c lentil Soup, small piece of quiche, spinach salad w/ light dressing, small slice pumpkin pie; 1 c lentil Soup, 1/2 Protein bar.

Water Intake: 4 c

Exercise: none right now, but I'm running later will edit

Anything to add: I organize the senior adults at my church for outings, etc. Today it was BINGO and lunch. I cooked all the food for them. It's so much fun, but a lot of work and I didn't have time (AGAIN!!) to do what I needed to. I'm getting back on track as we speak!

OH man this is kinda OT for in here but... my favorite candy is Reeses Peanut Butter cups... Last week I tried to sneak one of the single ones. I got it all in then, I got it all out. I now realize that Peanut Butter doesn't work for me.

Glad you enjoyed it though Bea!

      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? 🤷‍♀️
