    My Favorite Nsv

    Thanks guys! This site has been such a great friend for me! I'll post a pic later, but my sleeve date was may 18 & I am down 70 lbs good luck to you all!
  2. I have been on here since around February and was sleeved in may. I have probably had many nsv's but my greatest was today. I was getting dressed and couldn't find my jeans in the dryer..I was getting frustrated when I realized I had placed them in my teenagers pile of clothes

    5 Confessions (Join In)

    Ok, here goes nothing: - I confess I'm still a boredom eater, I eat 2-3 bites of food every few hours. - I confess I don't exercise as much as I should - I confess I am afraid to try certain foods because of fear of being sick:( - I confess losing weight is great, but I can't afford to buy a lot of clothes,so I am low on outfits. - I confess I worry I am not doing as well as I should be..-54 lbs in 14 weeks

    Laughing Pains!

    I am having left side pain about twice a week. And it hurts! I wonder if I put the wrap back on, will it help?
  8. And I have lost 30 pounds:) I have had no nausea at all, but I do one uncomfortable incision:( also my doctor has me in full liquids for 3 weeks to ensure my stomach heals and there are no complications. My biggest challenge is this mid morning slump I get? Afternoon I pick back up but between 11-2 I could sleep!?

  19. I am doing the 3month insurance wait right now but have a few questions. My BMI is 40 (exactly 100lbs overweight for insurance to pay.) My question is does anyone with a similar BMI have lots of loose skin? also, how long did you take off work?
