I was told I could occasionally take ibuprofen. I, too, have arthritis and agree it works best. Tylenol just doesn't cut it. Right now I have got gout in my left toe and have been limping and it has caused bad right knee pain. Unless one has arthritis, they don't know the aching pain. I wish you well!

not having that waddle walk (you know what I'm talking about)... getting my jeans out of the dryer and not having to stretch them out all over again to make them comfortable...

Being able to buy clothes from a decent store good brands not just big and tall.. Being able to walk around for hours to keep up with my family. Being able to fit on rides better. Not dealing with sweat between rolls (tmi) Not being looked at everytime I go out to eat. Being able to run for more than 30 seconds. Well be nice to have some female attention for once! Fit people get treated better in every aspect of life especially when shopping! Being able to fit into my sports car better Being able to go hiking it's been about 6 years.. Being able to save money on food and being a cheap drunk if I ever do drink. My biggest one is hopefully not to be hungry constantly every day, eating to live not living just to eat!

This would be a HUGE thing for me too. Not having the seat belt clicky thing digging into my hip.

I'm looking forward to more shopping opportunities (only two decent plus size stores here) being able to leave diabetes/high blood pressure/high cholesterol behind saving $$ on prescriptions/food/plus size clothes not getting winded bending over to tie my shoes being able to keep up with my husband and kids being able to attend events like fan expo/comic con and not be in agony after a short time being able to order my cute geeky t-shirts in women's cuts, rather than the boxy men's cuts not worrying regularly about dying before my children get into middle school

I tried cream soup with unflavored protein tonight & it was awesome. Sent from my SM-J727P using BariatricPal mobile app

One of my biggest victories was sitting at a movie or sporting event and only sitting in my seat...not having my butt spill over into the seats next to me

Received call that my surgery was approved. Awaiting surgery date. So excited!!!! Sent from my SM-N950U using BariatricPal mobile app

I’m at my purée stage now but I’m actually a little afraid of how my stomach might get . I miss gulping my water too lol these little tiny sips kill me !

I had gastric sleeve on April 29, 2013. In September 2015, I gave birth to a very premature baby boy, who lived in the NICU for 6 months before he passed away. During that 6 months, I didn’t eat. I drank so much coffee, and I had 1 sugar in each coffee. As you can imagine, I gained. I found out I was pregnant again 8 weeks after my son passed away. During that year and a half I gained back about 70 pounds. I have been trying to get back on track, but I can’t do it. My head just isn’t in the game anymore so to say. Yes, I still have 100lbs off, but I want to be where I once was. Has anyone else been in the same situation and got back on track?
