    I spit my first stitch!

    Haha, that is awesome! Congrats. I had to pull off this stuff that was on my incision on the belly button too. It was keeping my wound open. Soon as I pulled it off, not a day later the incision closed.

    I found it !!!

    Yay! That's awesome. I think that is NSV in my book. I agree with longer-life, I hope I have a moment like that.

    Breast?

    Haha, love it! But for real? I would have to have breasts to begin with, but yeah, I've lost some breast mass, but they look perkier! Lol.

    My first mushie!

    I just started but I've made chicken salad, tuna salad, deli meat with cheese, cottage cheese, baby bel light cheeses, eggs don't have as much protein as the tuna and chicken, but they are so yummy. Also, tilapia is really good because it is really soft and flaky.

    Getting ready for surgery....

    You can do this. The only tips I would recommend is really, really, really, learn to sip sip sip and chew chew chew. It is killing me right now as I transition to soft foods.

    Can you eat sushi?

    I would think the sashimi would be okay, but watch out for the rice. I hear it can be very filling.

    extra skin anyone??????

    There are so many factors about skin. Everyone is different. You won't know until you are there. I can tell you right now that at 21 years old, I will have loose skin. I have so many stretch marks from over the years of yo-yoing, my skin is not really that elastic. Age isn't everything, but I wouldn't trade fat rolls for loose skin any day of the week.

    Birth Control

    So far on mirena, I haven't had any problems with losing weight. But if you really don't wanna worry about the hormones, I would say paraguard.

    My "biggest" NSV Yet

    Aw, that is so awesome! Congrats.
  21. Hey, how are you? Have you had your last 6MSWL appointment yet?

  22. I was sleeved 12 days ago. At the beginning of the 6MWLS, I weighed 257 lbs, and with the pre-op diet and surgery.... I have lost 41.8 lbs. I am so happy to finally be losing the weight again. I do not regret this surgery. Only that, I ruined my body with my excessive weight before I got it. My stretch marks are pretty bad. I am hoping time will allow them to fade a little, but I am not hopeful.

    7 months out

    I am so sorry for your loss. I can't imagine what it would be like to lose my sister (who is also my best friend). I will be following your journey and keeping you in my thoughts as you tackle taking care of yourself. I know how hard that will be, but I wish you the best. Good luck!
