December 17, 2001 I had the full gastric bypass surgery. The best (unsolicited) advise I can give is talk to a therapist regularly. You will feel full before you'll feel satisfied and it can really mess with you mentally. It takes s lot of time to adjust to this and it really helps to talk to another person, a therapist or a support group/person who has been through all the things that you will inevitably face. Good luck, I know you'll do great, but if you ever find yourself needing to talk to someone who's been through all the things, I'd beorr than happy to chat/listen/or both. You're bound to have good days and bad, don't let the bad het to you and give u drinking through a straw. It's not worth the pain and a possible hernia from exanding grom the air swallowed via each time you take a drink from a straw.
After my weight loss surgery, there were lots of feelings to sort through on top of all the food, vitamins, exercise tracking so I definitely recommend the full year so you can get all that out too! I wishing you the very very best with your surgery!
I wish more people made floral swag washi tapes or sheets full of floral strips. I never seem to have enough stickers for doing edging with and I have to cut and piece together other stickers.
I had gastric bypass in February 2018. I highly recommend Dr Weiner's weight loss YT channel. I regained 50lbs during the pandemic, but I lost the regain thanks to a low dose of Zepbound for 7 months. I have been able to maintain my healthy BMI since July thru diet and walking. Other things to consider tracking are your side effects and food sensitivities. I still experience the unpleasant side effects of RNY, but the side effects help me stay focused on whole foods and portion control. I really like your wellness journal with the Paper Tess standard TN size. I'm thinking about trying that set-up again for 2025.
I track food/ symptoms/ mental health stuff - I use the daily pages in the Sterling tn for more detailed food info - and have the overview stats in the weekly bit, I never ever have enough space to track intake in the weekly section, and found having a daily page for it meant I could write more notes on how I was feeling (i have an eating disorder so was trying to track binges/ physical stuff/ goals etc) - with the surgery you might want more space for the info and to track stuff so might be worth considering - having the weekly as the overview of statistics and important info, and a daily for details. Just a thought :) Love your videos!! Xxx
Thank you so much for your concern, my family live in Florida & Puerto Rico, the hurricanes are getting worse and the loss of life and damage is heartbreaking 😢
Becky...I too will be having bariatric surgery (Gastric Sleeve). My date is not set yet, but I'm anticipating late December or January. What I ended up getting to track my "macros", exercise, water consumption, etc. is the Sterling Ink N1H Weekly and N1 Monthly booklets. I plan on dividing the week page into 4 boxes (breakfast, lunch, dinner, snacks) to put my totals (calories, fat, carbs, fibre, protein). Then on the blank page facing it I will draw in some charts for tracking my water intake, exercise (cardio, weights, yoga), sleep, and my weight. Then, in the monthly booklet, I will write in all my appointments. The monthly booklet also has the Goals and Quarterly pages, which I will use as overall weight loss/fitness/health goals and tracking. I am hoping to get January and my trackers in the monthly set up by Wednesday. If you want me to send you pictures of the setup, let me know, and I will email them to you.
The Aura Estelle Weeks planner has the horizontal layout with 3 undated daily pages per week. That may be another option to consider given what you’re looking for.
You know what’s funny I just went thru the exact same thing for my health journal needing to track my pain sleep (or lack of it’s 2:30am and I’m awake 🙃). Got all excited for my pretty weeks and new Tragen cover. Then got my N1 SI full year it’s a chunky monkey but the room it has I can fit sooooo much more in it. I like you have the PTD and of course the Faded Chronicle. But I decided the first to go was the weeks I sold it and the cover. So as of today I’m keeping the SI horizontal full year but I guess what this space 😱
I live in Tampa Bay Area in Florida. Yes Milton was horrible! This was our second in a few weeks. I’m not sure I can live here anymore. It’s so terrifying and stressful.
Use the tan colour diary for your health after the op, just keep all your heath stuff in there so you can just grab it when you need it, and it’s all in one place so no details get lost. The grey covered one in the black cover as a thoughts and brain dumping book, plenty of room on the pages to chat. The TNs to create art and maybe a quote or saying with the art, written instead of being sticker so you get good at writing with a nice flourish 😀
For your health planner... The back blank pages... You can rapid log on those pages just like you do for the functional planner but you can write down what you ate, tick off how many glasses of water youve had, your mood, any symptoms of feeling ill or having a bad day, you could also put pictures of your body back there for the transformation you are about to have because it's motivating! Basically, you just have one page to keep up with but if you get behind tracking on your trackers, you could always look at your daily log and backlog your health stuff. Hope this makes sense. You can also put affirmations in the back, a year in pixels when it comes to your weight so you can see how much you've lost over an entire year... Andddddd I think you're talking about these things now lol
Would you happen to know if Alvie co plan is around? I ordered from her a month ago and have not heard anything about my order. I know you don’t work for her but thought maybe you were on her PR team. Or maybe a close friend. I know you review her stuff alot. She’s not responding to my emails
I know that the shop is closed and that the advent was the last thing she is doing. She has many health issues. I would recommend emailing her or messaging her on Instagram. She will definitely get back to you.
If you wouldn’t mind, it would be very appreciated to have some type of warning at the start of videos that will have discussion of tracking food, weight, weight ins, measurement, etc. Accidentally coming across these can be really triggering for those in eating disorder recovery.
29:18 Chris saying ”Hi” made me chuckle 😆 hope everything goes well with the surgery and post-op❤

11:15 I hauled my Faded Chronicle recently. I really like the setup. I’m glad she changed it from being an 8mo planner.
I love how your cover colors all coordinate! So pretty! And, honestly, planners are like Lay's Potato Chips...you can't have just one!

9:35 that section is perfect for a tracker for health. I adore it for that!

I get the color moment. Mine is blue rn. I went for all of the Denali series. Love the new stuff. Waiting patiently for my pal planner.

I constantly worry about running out of notes pages. Yet, I have never actually run out of notes pages so I’m not sure what I’m so worried about. 😅

if you're using the horizontal for just tracking, would it be worth just getting the 2 TN booklets? less paper to worry about lol :)
Oohhh I didn’t think of this idea. Thanks so much
Would you please share a link to the Saiko TN pouch? I have been looking for a pouch for my standar TN!

So will you be selling your Sterling Ink Vertical please? x
Sorry someone already asked and it’s sold now
@@Whoopsididitagainco ok. Thanks

I will definitely try my best to remember to do this. I definitely dont want to cause any harm to anyone
