The knee pain was the first thing to disappear. I went from everyday pain to no pain in 3 weeks. This alone made my decision worth it. I can do the happy danse now without going ouch. Lol
Good luck...

OMG! What are they 15? And in education no less. I would turn around next time you hear them, waltz on over and say jealous much, and then tell them to grow up.
I'm relieved to see I'm not crazy and not alone. My hands, feet and tip of my nose are almost always cold. I live in Canada and winter is around the corner. I have no idea how I won't freeze to death...
Hi Holly,
I'm from Chateaguay, QC and had my surgery done in Montreal. I'm almost 2 months in and am feeling pretty awesome. It's nice to know there are other Canadians on this site. Good luck on...
Hee hee! Thanks for that. First laugh of the day. Are you sure nothing was going on? Lol. Just kidding.
Don't feel bad it has happened to me too. Regardless of your weight, nothing is made to last...
I started off on liquid vitamins twice a day with food and it went extremely well. I do chewables when I travel because the liquid vitamins need refrigeration. I can swallow pills now but I guess...
I am a lot less self conscious. Feeling great and getting a lot of attention. Wink, wink. I' m married not dead. Lol.
Those tall boots are sounding great. I'm not there yet but hopefully soon.
My all time fave is garlic basil lemon tilapia . Quick and easy.
Roast 4 cloves of sliced garlic in a pan until soft (use cooking spray instead of oil or butter to reduce calories)
Add 4 large...
Wow! 36 lbs. How fantastic is that. Congratulations and keep it up.
Funny how the whole last meal thing doesn't freak me out but the whole what am I going to do at social gatherings and diner parties is. Food is such a social thing in my life I am freaked out with...
I just noticed you're 3 weeks post op. how have you been adjusting? You doing okay?
Thanks Jen! I am such a blond sometimes. Lol.
Hey Jude,
I had the same reaction from my husband. He does not have a weight problem and is clueless to my struggles. I just took a deep breath one night and just told him this is what I was doing...
Hi all,
Anyone have surgery with Dr.Gagner? If so, how did it go? Any feedback would be appreciated.
Did just that this morning. Went to the farmers market. got some amazing fesh veggies and I've started cooking my soups and freezing them. I have run out of Tupperware. Need to run out to get more....
I did it! I confirmed that it is on! I am excited and petrified but I know that being scared for a moment will be better than dealing with severe illnesses and the constant inability to do the things...
Hi Jen, good on you! How has your experience been? Any difficulties? I made my peace with the decision to go ahead with this surgery. It has been an uphill battle, but I know that this will prolong...
Hi Sandra, I see what you're saying and I think subconsciously this may be a part of the problem but he will never in a million years admit to this. Well, I put my foot down yesterday and told him I...
Hi Mikamom, thanks for sharing your story with me. I have just been blown away by the support and kindness of people here. I have never before participated in forums and I am very grateful to have...
Hi Rochelle, thank you so much for the words of support. I'm glad for you that you will be accompanied to Mexico. I considered going there but with all the violence and having to do this on my own I ...
Hi Lovely, I might be having my surgery on the 25th of June and it would be great to have a buddy to talk to about it all.
Hi Raphaelsmuse, We share a very similar path and history. I am 41 but have dealt with weight problems all my life and the health problems are at my door step. This is really why I am considering...
You are fortunate to have a husband that is open minded and obviously cares for you. I could throw a brick at my husbands head and it would bounce back like a beach ball. He is just plain hard headed...
Hi DebbieD, I've always been able to loose the 10-20lbs here and there but always gained it back plus more. I know in my heart that this will save me. I do realize that everything in my life will...
Hi Char75, You are absolutely right on all points. I guess in my case, I feel like I am going against my family. I have always been the one who sets a goal and accomplishes it but this has been the...
