I had similar feelings prior to surgery. I don't have them anymore. 97 pounds down, post surgery just 8 months ago. The fight is over and modern medicine won. It is a relief to not have to...
Awesome! An inspiration to us all.
Sweeet! Good luck...keep us posted. If you are anything like me, after the first few days post surgery, you won't regret a single day of having made the decision!
Congrats! Right behind you!
Congrats on your surgery and hope you are doing well, it sounds like you are. Similarly, I did not share this process with many people so it was a little lonely at first, but now that I have lost a...
2 cheetoo puffs and 2 bites of a cupcake do not sound like the entire bag of cheeto puffs and a six pack of cupcakes! If you are anything like me, I had zero limits and ate everything until it was...
fantastic!
The popcorn doesn't hurt my tummy - but after a few bites I get a cue that I have had enough and stop - IMAGINE THAT! I like having popcorn at the movies and even if am with someone and even if I...
Handful of Smart Popcorn works for me, string cheese works. Small glass of non-fat chocolate milk also not a bad option!
Congrats....and big thumbs up - you will be pleasantly surprised after the initial shock of surgery. I use NOW Soy Protein Isolate - not sure I would call it a "fave" - but it does the job - plenty...
Welcome! Things are going to be fine....you will be very happy with the results. I had the surgery less than 3 months ago and I am down 61 pounds and feel fantastic. As with most people here on...
Welcome and buckle in for a ride of a lifetime! In answer to your question, I did not tell a lot of people, because it is not their business what I do, really. It took me a long time to come to...
I think the key phrase that should help you decide that resonated with me was the phrase "I want my life back". I have struggled for a million billion years and have gone up and down (mostly up) for...
Hi Stacey...I am six weeks post surgery and I have not had a lick of caffeine and feel just fine. And I was an all day coffee, diet coke drinker. I imagine it is a personal preference but my doc...
best of luck
good luck!
Pasta made from mozzarella cheese? What?????
I didn't feel so good after 4 days but it gets better. If it is very serious...call your doctor!!!!
Yes, I feel the same way!!! Thanks for sharing. I have those same sore spots and they don't seem to be getting better (although walking seems to help somewhat). They were manageable at first, and...
First of all, thanks for your post and congratulations on making your decision to go through with the surgery. I too, was very reluctant and skeptical and held the belief that if I just "ate healthy...
I'm about to start pureed solid foods next week and I am nervous. It is easy to pour a liquid in a glass and drink it, but now I have to get creative, something I never was (my pizza delivery person...
Congratulations! Good luck. I am 8 days post-surgery and I have a desk job and I am at my desk. I don't know if I could walk 4-5 miles a day for my job but I have to force myself to exercise lest...
What a very sweet post. And truly, what could you have done if you weighed 500 pounds? Complain on your sofa about how the Pizza Hut was closed and couldn't deliver because it was underwater? ...
Amen! Same surgery date, same thoughts and feelings.
hugs.
Hey guys, I am 6 days post surgery and I just want to tell you (I started the process last September) that the time will pass faster than you think and before you know it, you'll be assuring others...
