I've been in the 220s for the past year. In may it will be two years since my surgery. Time really flies. I try to exercise but my knees and back are still injured so I can't do what my mind wants me...

On July 3rd, it will be three months since I’ve had surgery. My first appointment to my doctors was three weeks after surgery. I lost 30 pounds since April 18th, when I started my liquid diet. I was...

I went to dr barba and had surgery on may 3rd along with my daughter.

Well it's 1am and this is the second night that I cant sleep because my legs hurt me. I cant find a place to put them in bed. If I move them, they do feel a bit better but as soon as I stop, the pain...

I too am so down on my liquid in take. For the first week, I was in pain my I just sipped anything. Taking my pain meds were the worst. The cramping in my stomach made me cry. I bought some isopure...

I went to see the doctor this morning because I wasn't feeling so hot because I had the liquid runs. But it's getting better. He didn't give me any meds which is a good thing. I hate taking drugs if...

My daughter was originally denied the surgery. I had to get a letter from her pediatrician saying that she needed the surgery and how her wait has been. It worked. But I was in tears. I would have...

Congrats Kelly. I am so happy for you. It's an exciting time in your life.

I didn't think I would survive a week of this. Some nights I thought I was going to die. I would have to cry myself to sleep. I started to second guess the whole process I went though. Thinking maybe...

You said he only needs to lose 50 or 60 lbs. How much does he weigh? Because a lot of doctors in the US wont due the surgery unless you are at least 35 bmi and if you are under, you better have some...

All those recipes sound delicious. I am going to make the brownies and pancakes for sure. My daughter is having graduation in June and she also had the surgery. She wants cheesecake so I will be...

I thought I would post about some of the issues I had with pain because all I ever read is everyone does great after surgery. I wanted to let people know it's not all rainbows and unicorns once...

It's been a long six months to get to this point in time. I had surgery on May 3rd with no complications. I did have prior issues with my gall bladder so I had them remove it at the same time. Good...

I use to make something similar with ricotta cheese and sauce. I would put 1/4 cup ricotta cheese on a piece of toast, then put a couple of spoonfuls of sauce. It might sound strange but it tastes...
