For the first time in my life FOOD doesn’t control my thoughts and actions. #awesomelypowerful

Really great thank you for asking. All my power shopping yesterday got me down to 260.8 this morning which is 24 pounds gone since I started my preop diet 4/18 and 9 pounds down from my day of surgery weight. I feel really very good with increasing energy.

Looking to chat with anyone who had revision surgery from lapband to gastric sleeve surgery? I had my band removed two years ago. June 14 is sleeve surgery. Wondering about the difference. With the band I was always getting stuck, couldn’t eat bread or anything doughy. My stomach gurgled on occasion. How will it be with the sleeve? What is the difference?

Someone please tell me I'm not the only one to experience this. It's like I have to have all the bad foods before I start my pre-op diet. I feel like it's my way of saying good bye to the things I like to eat....

So being the impatient women that I am I could not wait another moment and called UHC to ask about my paperwork that had been submitted just two days ago lol She told me I was already approved!! I am so excited! Thank you Jesus!! Now I am just waiting on a call from my Dr's office:) Man things have really flown by!! Hope all is well with everyone!! Happy Losing!!

I want to wish all of the Mothers on here, a very happy and healthy Mother’s Day! You deserve this day as well as many many more! Thank you for all that you do Day in and day out! Enjoy! Justin

And I hope in a few months to echo your thoughts🌺😛🌸

I'm Bailey too! Waiting on surgery date.

My doctor told me at my first follow up appointment that if I measured my success by the scale I would be disappointed every time. My scale reads 203 pounds and has been there for a couple of weeks now but the size 36 pants that fit when I first got them not too long ago are getting real loose. So just because I can’t see it on the scale doesn’t mean stuff isn’t happening.

Taoz maybe they made your soups with "natural or organic" MSG? I get the feeling people don't listen too good. I'm getting,more vegan, more natural and,unprocessed as I grow older, okay, so this is a story from the past., Decided to make" Johnnie Marzetti " for supper this particular day. Used my own tomatoes, onions, mince from when my cousin last butchered, homemade noodles I had made, my maternal grandmother had taught me to make,them before she died when I was 8, never had a failure making them. At any rate made a big soup tureen-full. I always cook,like I was expecting a guest or 2 to drop in, the joking name we have around here is "cooking for a threshing crew" I suppose an Aussie equivalent would be enough to feed sheep shearers and the Prime Minister too. Went out to the garden , picked enough greens for a good salad and had it ready too. Although late hubs was a devoted potato,eater he didn't get any this time. Family sits down and digs in. Older son says "Mummy this is soo good," yes I said "everything is fresh and home'made, nothing from the stores". And of course that's the way it always should be, but sometimes I've gotten lazy and used parially processed things but you know, you can taste the difference. Happy to hear,you and the loo reconciled your differences. Now,keep things smooth easy and moving along, you'll feel better that way Have a good evening and give the little ones a kiss from me 😛
