Don't give up girlie! YOU CAN DO THIS! (Hugs)

OMG HILARIOUS!!!!!

WHOOO HOOOO! CONGRATS!

Yup I totally agree. Weight distorts...my daughter (13) is totally getting sick of all the whoop la when people discover my age ...they say things like omg your mom looks like your sister blah blah blah...the dentist assistant asked my son (18) how he felt about having such a young looking mom, he didn't know what to say, poor guy.

That's awesome Mr. Mason! Congrats to YOU!

Awww thanks girlie! I'm actually 43 now...the people at the support group and options last week thought I was in my 20's (I'm sure very LATE 20's) LOL...I'm so thankful...THANK YOU JESUS!!! AND Thanks to my sleeve I feel BETTER THAN EVER yayyyyyyyyyyy!

Welcome camille01

CONGRATS COOP YOU LOOK MARVELOUS :-)

Thank you for this post mini...you have encouraged me since I started here back in June 2010 and thru my journey, and I can't thank you enough. You are a blessing and an inspiration to me and I hope I will be able to help others like you have helped me ...love and hugs

Well there it is...as I always say DIETS work, it's keeping OFF the weight that is the challenge...most people think wls is a CURE, and that's so not true, it's a huge TOOL, but we (I speak for myself) will ALWAYS have to watch what we eat, etc. etc. etc. (big sigh)...and I think that's what I reallllllly realized on Thursday night (bigger sigh) .

GREAT QUESTION!!!! And it is scarrrry! I haven't read any of the above posts yet, but I'm sure there are folks out there...I got scared straight on Thursday night. I went to a support group (mostly gastric bypass peeps) and a lot of them were gaining back weight, and some of them never got to goal it was a wake up call for me to stop fooling around (eating junk) and get with the program seriously.

and 12 pounds to go...yayyyyyy

hmmmm...why would he do that? My surgeon used a size 32 period. I can totally understand sewing over the staple line as a precaution, but making it smaller after the fact doesn't make sense...just sayin I looked at this post because my friend is researching sleeve surgery in Mexico and I'm trying to get the 411 for her.

I had 1 chicken el carbon taco from El Pollo Loco last night for dinner and that is perfect for me...I'm 5 months out.

I believe it's foods that go down easy and you can eat a lot of it...for me its Funyons (so I stay away from them).
