Thanks Peggy
I plan to measure my food everytime. I will carry a 1/4 cup with me everywhere I go so if I eat once back on regular food I can measure or weigh my food. I will probably have the RNY but I will...
Most of the time the DS surgery is for Patients that are extremely obese, loke 50 bmi that sort of thing. That is what I have learned on variuos sites. It is usually the surgery that is done on...
I will see my Surgeon on Tuesday and am waiting until then to make up my mind. I do have some issues involving reflux and calcium absorption now. I will follow whatever my Surgeon thinks is best...

If I get the sleeve I 'm planning on asking for the smallest sleeve possible.
I have gained back some of the weight I lost. I'm trying to get it back off before I see the surgeon. They require me to have lost 5 % of my total body weight. I'm trying hard and am back on this...

Just think you lost a half a sack of taters you don't have to lug around anymore LOL.
I was one month from my 90 days and BCBSNC changed to six months. I still mad about it but I couldn't do anything but deal with it. Hope you get your surgery date soon. I will see the surgeon...
You're doing great, thanks for the story. I hope to be able to eventually return to truck driving. I made a decent living and I miss the scenery even though I do like seeing my family everyday. I...
I haven't had surgery yet, but I bet sugar free popsicles would help. Hope you feel better soon.

Others here are right for the most part. TCady I don't fully agree with. She has lost 95 pounds that is pretty good. Also, I also know someone that had the full gastric and is gaining her weight...
