wait I have very large breast I hav e gone from a 42G to a now 38G. they are like tennis balls in tube socks. I am going to wait till goal and then just get a lift. I wanted to add that I am only almost 80lbs down I have a lot more to go the next 30 are till the goal set for me by my doctor but I think I will want to loose more.

The scale has not been my friend latley it has been saying 203 since 9/7. I try not to weigh in every day or weekly but I have been so close to 199. I have been weighting myself about 2 times a week since 9/7 and NOTHING it has not been moving it would get to 202 but then back to 203 and back and forth. So this morning I hopped on and it was 199.4 I was so excited. I have not been below 200lbs since 2003. Then I got up to 240 had my first baby then PCOS, then pre menopause at 27 Then 10lbs gain a year I would gain and loose but stay between 255 and 290. I could never get below 258 to be honest with myself. This is the best choice I have made for myself in a long time. I am so happy to have the outside match the inside.

NOPE because I look great with clothes on.. Just how I want to look. I even stood on the kids stool in the bathroom today before my shower to see how droopy my butt is getting.

If you drink too fast it will HURT. I am 6 months out and if I drink to much to fast OUCH!. I also for some reason post op till about week 8 could not drink anything cold. It hurt to. I had everything at room temp, warm or hot. I did find it really odd as Popsicle's were fine.

Yes you can. The only thing I have noticed is I surprise myself all the time by what I end up ordering.

I would suggest hydration G2 or pedialyte. Also I did better with room temp and warm drinks. I felt like every time I drank something cold everything would just tighten up on me. I also felt like I had a lump in my chest/deep throat area for a while till about the 6-8 weeks mark.

I am about the same as you as far at stats go. I was 278 decision weight 261 surgery date and at the 3 months out mark I was down to 235. I would say talk to your dr about the travel and see what he says to wait post op. If I were you I would try to schedule it right when you get back from San Fran. I was good to go by the 6 weeks post op and at 4 weeks out feeling good. How do you deal with pain? Also how was recovery from any other surgeries?

I was Mexico also and I was Days 1-7, at least 3 days Only clear liquids I could start drinkable yogurt day 3. Day 7-21 I could start liquid protein and to get at least 30g a day Day 7-11 add creamy soups day22-28 soft foods. Tuna, cottage cheese, oatmeal, apple sauce, pudding, puree veggies, mashed potatoes.

Yeah I was going to say I have a wally world bike I think it was $80 and I was fine on it at 280lbs.

I am thinking it might have something to do with your post count.

Yes I could have chose to do Atkins but my Dr would have wanted me to do it for 30days preop.

this depends on a lot of things people didn't really notice right away I was wear the same clothes and they were lose on me but I think they started to make me look bigger than I was. There are a lot of variables also if they are people that see you all the time they won't notice as much as someone who doesn't see you that much. I just say my inlaw Aunt and shew as shocked but the last time I saw here was 50lbs ago.

Gatorade I loved the G2, water, it is more important for your body to have the hydration for healing.

I have done this and end up spitting stuff out after I have that what am I doing moment.

They are real I was weight myself all the time and find It better if I do it once a week. So I have tried to resist ... I agree with you won't have a stall if you weight once a month... These are my numbers 06/25/11 - 289 02/01/12 - 279 03/12/12- 261 03/15/12- 271 03/17/12 - 260 03/22/12 255 04/01/12 250 04/02/12 249 04/20/12 245 04/23/12 243 05/03/12 236 05/08/12 235 05/23/12 231 05/29/12 229 6/20/12 225 07/21/12 218 8/16/12 207 09/6/12 203 9/7/12 201 surgery was 3/12/12

I had a jp drain for 3 days. It was no a biggie for me.

It is something the Dr has to pay to be in so I No that would not be a decision maker for me.

I LOVE rice crackers and they give me that chip fix if I am having one.

I am experiencing it now 6 months post op. but I am a special case as I have been under anesthesia 3 times in the past year. May/11 March/12 and July/12 and all were surgeries. So I think my body is really protesting now. I also just saw on Good morning america I think. that Vitamin D is suppose to help with hair loss.

Happy Birthday! My NSV is I was able to wear jeans yesterday that I couldn't get over my butt in July. Also I am not in pain when I get out of bed in the morning.

use your spirometer for breathing as much as you were told to. Also drink fluids ALL day get some G2 Gatorade it will help with energy you will be soar and tired if you are getting dehydrated.

TWO MONTHS...... I think I was two weeks post op. As I just didn't have the energy but as soon as I did I was doing it.

either Dr can direct you to what is needed and check I would chose to go to my Gyno as they do rectal exams too.

I would see your Dr about it but in the mean time a warm compress.

Love it. I also to pictures of my seat belt tail the last time I flew 4 months post op and I can't wait to take one again the next time I fly. I didn't have to ask for an extender before but the belt had to be all the way out and some planes it was a little to tight.
