sweetgalntx replied to 300PoundsDown's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Well Jim once you have it done, you'll be glad you did. It will be the best thing I've ever done. I am so glad I had it done. I'll pray for you. -
Well here I am again, not getting on this site too often but I had to let ya'll know I'm am doing okay. Did have a little set back, well more than a little. I gained 10 pounds over the holidays and now I'm struggling to get that off . I don't know why but for some reason I can't seem to get satified food wise. Plus I have some friends that think they are helping me but they aren't. Before the holidays I went from 440 pounds down to 304, now I'm up to 314. I am...

Oh wow, it's been awhile since I've been on here. Sorry, with the new year coming in, I'll try to come on here more often. Well let's see. Had my sleeve 9/24/10 and I've lost 136 pounds. Feeling so much better. Able to get around a little better too. Still have a ways to go to get the rest off me but that sleeve was the best thing I've ever done.

Oh yeah, I love the water aerobic's. It sure is helping me lose my weight. Never knew exercise could be much fun.

Wow, hard to beleive it's been a year since my surgery and I'm doing great. I've lost 115 pounds. I am extremely happy. I saw my Dr and he was also very happy with me. I've still got more weight to go but so far I'm loving it. Everything I have is getting so big on me now. Trying to take things up as much as I can. I sure hope you all are having a great time as I am. Thanks again for all the well wishes.

Wow, it has been awhile since I was on here last. Okay, to get ya'll up to date. I'm not down 108 pounds. My clothes are really baggy on me but not falling off quite yet. Since no one around here has my size in clothes it looks like I'm gonna have to go out and buy some new one's as winter comes on. Back at the end of May I had emergency surgery, had to have two hearn's fixed and my appendix removed. Doing lots better now. Next week I'll be starting water aerobtics.. YEAH!!!!

Thanks, I'll look for book and the email.

Thank you for your info. I've looked at our Walmart here in my town and we don't have them, either that or I looked in the wrong department. Can't get much help there they don't know where they moved things too either. lol

Hey Gogiants, I understand where your coming from. I was at one time in my life 498 pounds, I had to lose 100 pounds in 3 months just to have my gall bladder removed and a hernia repaired. I lost 130 pounds but I was on a very strick diet that a Dr put me one. I vowed after that, I'd have the lap band done. That was back in April 2007, after a year I put back some of that weight back on . It took me a year or so just to find a Dr that took my insurance. When I found that Dr, I found out I had to travel 58 miles just to have my surgery. He (my doctor) suggested I have the bypass but he said he'd really like to recommend the sleeve. Then then the day of my surgery, he asked me if he had problems could he do the sleeve. I told him to do what ever he had to do. That was back on Sept 24, '10.. It was the best thing I ever did. It's been 6 months now, I still have my days that I struggle but I love it. I've lost 82 pounds now. I'm down to 354 pounds now. I'm so close to my first goal of to see 350 and to get into a swim suit. I'm actually going to start doing water aroebics next month. I can't wait. Anyway, Good luck and keep in touch with us all. -
Where did you find the mini muffin pans and donuts pans? I can't find it anywhere here in my town.

Happy Sunday Everyone! Today is pretty good except for the possible change of rain. Boy is it humid here. Still no weight loss per the scale but I can tell the inches are coming off. I'm down to the some of my old clothes I haven't worn in years. My jeans are really baggy, I'm loving this. Life is good and God is great.
-
Well okay, I thought I'd share the pic I took of myself on my birthday, 2/1/11. After losing 74 pounds, since my surgery on September 24, 2010. Yep, my clothes are getting really baggy, boy thaqt feels really good. Now if I could get it coming off again. I've been at a stand still for about a month now. Not really sure what to do. Any suggestions, I would greatly appreciate.

Okay, I live in Texas and I'm telling you, I'm 5 months out and I'm still not tried a burger from anywhere. Just afraid to try it. But the recipe on here sounds good. Don't sound like you did too bad. -
Smoothie... ok for full liquids, or more mushies?
sweetgalntx replied to FuriosMommy's topic in Liquids (stage 1)
My favorite smothie is one I make with 1 small banana, 1 1/2 scoops whey protein, 1 packet of Splends, 1 capful of Torani Sugar Free Raspberry syrup about 6 ice cubes in a blender and drink that for breakfast. I love it. -

Hey Thinoneday, where do you find the turkey jerky? What brand is it? I've been eating some of the beef steaks, because they are high in protein. But I try not to eat them too ften. They do have high sodium.
