There are so many! I remember someone making a comment about me "expecting". Ugh. That has to be the worst. And someone one I barely knew 20 years ago said when I ran into her recently, "wow, last...
I think its totally normal to have all those feelings. It doesn't mean that you are making a mistake, or being selfish. Just that you're human. You are making a difficult decision that is going to...
Congratulations!!
I have pretty much stayed away from buying new clothes since my surgery. (3 1/2 mos.) I don't want to spend a lot of money on clothes that I won't be wearing for long. I did splurge on some pants...
I find I have trouble remembering to order small. I feel like I waste a lot of food too. But On the other hand, its nice to throw it out and say to myself "HA! I'm full after just a few bites!"...
I have always heard that you should weigh in once a week same time of day, etc. But my surgeon said the successful people weigh every day! So I do. I don't freak out if it doesn't move or even if it...
I have a 15 yr old daughter that is driving me crazy. I have no advice for you, just prayers for patience! We all made it through, and so will she.
I tried popcorn at 10 weeks, they told me nuts and such were ok after 6 weeks, I had no problem. I used to be a popcorn gobbler, so I just tried to take it really slow. and chew, chew, chew!!
My doc sent me home with Zofran for nausea. That saved me more than once when I was feeling sick.
I usually have a greek yogurt or cottage cheese with fruit if I am tired of shakes. I've heard of people having trouble with eggs, forget about them for a couple weeks, then try again.
My Doc and...
There sure are a lot of hoops to jump through aren't there? Hope you can get scheduled soon! Good luck!
Never thought I'd hear myself say this...but I am soooo sick of sweet stuff. Sweet protein shakes, sweet protein bars. Blah. I can't even finish one anymore. Will someone please alert me when they...
We all had that "omg, what have I done?!" moment. It WILL pass! Totally worth it! Hang in there!!
Weigh to go!! I just hit that same goal myself a week or so ago. Its fabulous!! Keep it up!!
Way to go! Doesn't it feel great? And just think...this is only the first of many many goals you are going to reach. And you are going to keep feeling
better and happier with yourself every day....
I am getting used to the taste of the Walmart shots. I would ask manager if they can get them for you. They will be with the other protein products. They are cheaper than the ones at GNC too. They...
WOO-HOO!!! I stepped on the scale this afternoon and it said 199!!!:D
Now my weight usually bounces up and down between 1-3 lbs for a few days and then it will drop again. But folks let me tell you,...
I am 10 weeks out and still struggle with this, but its getting easier. I force myself to drink 16 oz of H2O on my drive to work. Giving myself a time frame seems to help. But there are days when I'm...
thanks to all of you. LOL I think going back to work has really brought the cravings to the forefront of my mind. I drank them mostly at work. What is strange to me is that it isn't the caffeine (I...
I know, I used to be able to drink a couple of margaritas. As far as the social life, when I'm eating slowly and so little, my friends sometimes ask if I"m ok, maybe think I'm not feeling well, but I...
Ok. I went cold turkey on diet dr. pepper and diet coke 2 weeks before my surgery. So its been almost 12 weeks since I've had one. After my surgery I didn't even think about them. But for the last...
Well I went out with friends last night and had my first alcoholic drink (9 1/2 wks post op) it took me 2 hours to drink 3/4 of a Smirnoff Ice. I didn't get tipsy at all. I also had a southwest egg...
I got mine at Cato too!! That pic was taken 1 year ago at my son's graduation party. I need to get a new pic up. Getting a new hair cut tomorrow and going out with some girlfriends tomorrow night....
Today I had a toning body wrap done. Lost a total of 13 1/2 inches. An inch here, half an inch there. My pants are looser! They wrap you up like a mummy with ace bandages soaked in "mineral" water,...
