Thanks dylanmiles, we have some pretty good trollbusters on here . That same name popped up in some posts and they were on it like hawks in calling out the post and that they were a troll.

Sounds like you have a great attitude as well! Best wishes to you!

Awesome picture! Are you lactose intollerant? You might want to try a different protien powder or some Lactase before you take your shake. Oh and I heard you can take Beeno with your beans and brocolli to stop gas. Good Luck!

WOW-under 200!! that is so awesome. One day I hope to see 199, just less than 1 pound for that but it is taking me over a month for that number. Keep up the great work!

Very nice to hear you're doing better. The gas gets trapped in the shoulders. It is an awful feeling. Use heat.

You're doing beautifully!!! Be ready because your feet may shrink even more! I know it sounds nuts, but I actually went from a size 10W shoe to a 8 1/2M. I didn't think it was possible! I fully expected to have to replace all my clothes but I couldn't believe I also had to replace all my shoes lol!

I really appreciate that you posted this. WLS is a drastic step and not one to be taken lightly. And even though I've been addicted to this website for months, your post made me stop and really think. I appreciate your perspective. I sometimes think it's pretty sad that the only way I have a chance to take control of my weight problem is to have part of my stomach removed. If I had only recently developed a weight problem, I would be less inclined to be moving forward with this. But I have tried for 25 years to lose the weight and keep it off. Now my knees are threatening mutiny, and I feel it's time to do something serious, i.e. surgery. As far as not enjoying food like I used to -- I'm ready for that. I want that. My husband, who is very athletic and healthy, is just not that "into" food, and I've admired that. I want to not be obsessed with food and hungry all the time. I want to be a person like my husband who eats to live and doesn't live to eat (yes it's a cliche but a good one!). If I hadn't tried so many times for so many years only to end up bigger than ever, I wouldn't do this. But I don't want to waste any more time.

Guggles happen when I lay on my left side. I am just happy I can't hear it during the day! Sitting in meetings would be very interesting.
