.... I can't believe it's been a month already!

So I seen my surgeon yesterday and he's so happy with my progress, 27 pounds in my first month and no complications! I've had no nausea, vomiting,...

I had terrible back pain after surgery. Once my incisions healed and I was able to sleep on my sides the pain subsided.:)

I wish I could offer some advice, but I had a hysterectomy two years ago. Thank Goodness though, I would HATE to be dealing with that after surgery! Good luck to you and the other ladies! :)

Again, you guys are the best! I feel so much better finally saying it, or typing it out there for people to see! Thank you again for the great advice! Also, Im taking my daughter to Chicago next...

Thank you Jen, you are the best! :)

Thank you everyone for the encouraging words & wisdom. Thank you Rich for the revisit to the scripture you quoted! Our minister focused on that scripture during our counseling prior to the wedding...

He's always made jokes trying to be funny, but not about my weight. Just to clarify, he's NEVER called me fat or made me feel bad about my weight. This started once I started working out and losing...

It's so strange, but when I was heavier he couldn't keep his hands off me and now he barely looks my way. I wish he would just lose the ego and talk to me! I've mentioned counseling, but he's above...

I can definitely see why the divorce rate is so high after weight loss surgery! I swear if my husband whines about the recovery time for my ELECTIVE surgery or says how I "took the easy way out" one...

Thanks for sharing ladies! I also use ice creams bowls & ramekins! :)

I currently only use them at home, but if I had a metal one I would probably take it on the go! :) I'm glad you feel the same way Julie, it was really surprising to me when I first tried. Now, my...

I'm a mom of three, so we have many toddler & infant sized spoons in our drawer and decided to try using one and I have only used these since! I'm sure that many of you sleevers already know this, or...

I LOVE that feeling!!! Congrats on hitting ONDERLAND and keep up the great work!! :)

That's amazing!!! I hope I can lose as successfully as you! :)

You are doing great, 21 lbs in 21 days is fantastic!!! :)

Thank you all so much for your kind words and your personal stories! They are both SO encouraging! We will ALL get THERE, it just takes time! :) :)

Congratulations!!! You are doing a great job, don't worry about the number on the scale! :)

I WISH! I weighed 270+ at the beginning of 2012 and I lost over 50 lbs before my surgery date by diet and exercise. I really should add a break down on my signature like some of the other members. ...

Thank you!! :) I'm doing well, but can't wait to be off clear liquids! I see my surgeon today, so hopefully I can move on to the next stage!

Two weeks Post-Op and I'm down 23 pounds!!! I've officially hit ONDERLAND and I'm not looking back EVER again!!!! It's been 10 years since my weight resided in the 100's, and it feels SO good to...

You will do great! I'll be straight with you, the first four days are rough, but after that it just gets easier! I'm 12 days post-op and 18 pounds down.... I'm tired, but I feel great! :)

Amazing job... You look fabulous!! :)

I love those Luke! I miss them and pickles soooo much! I'm SO over this clear liquid stage.... 5 more days until full liquids! :)

Congrats & well wishes! :)

Woot Woot!!! That is something that needs to be shared, congrats!!! :)
