Rob so far so good

Приєднався 19 кві 2011
Welcome to my channel! "So Far So Good" I’m a 60-year-old artist living with chronic pain, chronic pancreatitis, and diabetes. For over 35 years, I’ve struggled to make a living through art, facing both creative highs and financial lows. Despite the challenges, I’ve never given up.
I immigrated from New Zealand to the Netherlands for love, and I’m still happily married with two wonderful children. Life here has been an adventure, full of challenges and discoveries. Beyond painting, I have a passion for photography-especially cameras-and I love cooking as another creative outlet.
This channel is my way of sharing the reality of being an artist, managing chronic illness, and adjusting to life in a new country. Expect honest conversations, creativity, and personal reflections. If you’re an artist, expat, or someone facing life’s struggles with resilience, join me as I share my journey. Let’s build a community that inspires and supports each other!

Hi, did you lose a lot of weight when you first got it ? If so what helped you gain weight??
@@Choccsworld Thanks for reaching out. In the beginning when I came out of hospital I lost weight but not a lot, as my body settled down I gained weight just by sticking to a regular diet, home cooked meals and saying away from processed food (most of the time) I also had protein supplements for the first 3 months. I was lucky because most of the damage was on the tail of my pancreas it didn't affect my enzymes production. So it can really depend on how bad the pancreatitis was and what part was the most damaged. But now with onset of chronic pancreatitis I'm having more difficulties with food and need enzyme replacement but have managed to maintain my weight so far. Because I use insulin for my diabetes that also puts on weight Talk to your doctor for advice and see maybe talk to a dietician. Hope this helps Rob
@ thank you ! My doctor is horrible she literally prescribed me zenpep (each meal) & 4 pentsa tablets in am… I lost so much weight I don’t even leave my home anymore… I asked her is there anything we could try to gain weight & she continues to say hopefully the zenpep will help… I’ve been doing some research and I’ve found that smoothies are good especially since I can never finish a meal and barely have an appetite.. I think I’ll try them with some ensures .. this is crazy.. it’s even crazier because since 2016 they claimed it was crohns now it’s “ no crohns n only epi “…..
@Choccsworld I hope everything works out for you, I know how frustrating it can be. Keep in touch. I plan to make more videos on this topic and also diabetes , maybe subscribe 😀 kind regards Rob
60 years old and starting a UA-cam Channel this is a big challenge for me I hope you can join me on this journey 😄
