Also from another female. My boyfriend has lost 150+ lbs since feb and still has another 100 to go. I don't mind the loose skin. Although I met him when he was 440lbs. I wasn't physically attracted to him when he weight that much. I was attracted to him mentally and emotionally. Now that he's lost a lot of weight the physical attraction is stronger but when we have sex it doesn't get in the way much at all. Only time I have a problem with it is when the extra skin at his belly when he lifts it it weird me out if he kinda flops it on me but usually he does it so I don't notice and I'm not bothered. Now that I have had the surgery I understand what he's going through. I love him and all his loose skin too!

Is Early Twenties too young for the lapband?
Mewizza replied to PumpkinPanda's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
I'm 23 & I'm 5'10 & my highest weight was 340lbs. I will only tell you this once. THIS IS THE BEST DECISION I HAVE EVER MADE. I was banded about month & I've already lost 17lbs. I suggest you to do it. It's well worth the rewards. -

Looking for some non-judgmental feedback
Mewizza replied to Sassy Pants's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I cheated on day 3 with 2 little popcorn shrimps. I also when to creamy and mushy food a little faster then I was supposed to but I was very careful not to over do it. Just try to stand on plan. -
I have tired a lot and I love Unjury. All the flavors besides chicken noodle is wonderful. I only suggest Unjury

A question for the ladys
Mewizza replied to twomin2midnight's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
My period was right on time. Not a day late. lol -
So I had surgery two weeks from today & I feel a little restrictions but not much. I'm not hungry hungry all the time but I'm afraid that I haven't thrown up (not that I want too), I haven't got anything stuck., I had anything I know of like slimming or what ever people call it or PBing.. I do burp a lot but that's it. Is this normal? I almost feel like I could eat anything even though I'm on mushy foods now. I feel fine. I feel like I'm not even banded! Anyone else feel like this before their first fill?

I'm 23 & Single and dating. I tell everyone. I love people supporting me in my journey. I feel like the more people who know then the more people who can help me stay on track and support me. I love all the compliments and encourage me when I tell people. I mean it's better then them looking at me at 340lbs and killing myself with food with those looks. Most people are interested in how it works and how it's working for me. I'm a cheap date. I went out to breakfast with my family and I share a plate with my mom. I actually just ate her eggs. LOL I'm almost a free meal. I'm not ashamed I had WLS. I'm ashamed I got to 340lbs at 23. I'm proud I took my life back over and going to live a long healthy lifestyle. I tell the guys who want to take me out on dates up front. It's easier. Keep your head up & do what's right for you. <3

Isopure is so gross. DONT GET IT. Although I LOVE UNJURY I love all of them but the chicken soup flavor. -
Medically Supervised Diet Pre-Bandsters...
Mewizza posted a topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I thought I'd start a thread for everyone that is currently waiting their 6 months medically supervised diet before they are approved for the band. I'm going to my 1st meeting with my doctor who is also my chiropractor on Wednesday. I'm hoping the 6 months goes by quickly. -
Blending things on liquid diet
Mewizza replied to CherieElise's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Bear Creek. It makes a lot. I used half skin milk half water. It calls for 8 cups of water but I like mine a little creamer. -
Hey,I live in the northland & was just banded on Tuesday!

Blending things on liquid diet
Mewizza replied to CherieElise's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I fixed potatoe soup with milk and put it a magic bullet with sour cream and cheese and blended it. Today the first day I don't feel sick. I also mixed in unflavored protein powder. It was soooooo good. -
I haven't found a check list of what people brought to the Hospital & what you needed at home afterwards. I think it would be nice if we started one here. Plus my tentative date for surgery is Thursday! :-)

Surgery moved to tomorrow...
Mewizza replied to Mewizza's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Thank you!!! I'm very excited. -
So I get a call this morning advising me my surgery has moved from Thursday to Tuesday. Then I asked what about my 48 hours of liquid diet? She said it's okay & the nurse would call with instructions. My boyfriend who had gastric said I should take work off today and "clean" out my system. I'm gonna go to work unless the doctor advised I can't go to work or I need to to "clean" out my system. Has anyone else had their surgery day moved up? I will also be staying over night at the hospital too. Anyway I'm scared and freaking out thinking what about my liquid diet.

Mewizza replied to Mewizza's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I'm not sure what they went on because I actually gained weight on my diet. -
What about after surgery like what do you need when you are at home?
