1. Never shop in Lane Bryant again. 2. Buy a very sexy slinky beautiful dress from one of those high end stores. 3. Have my one year surgery anniversary/birthday party in a fabulos city like Vegas or NYC. 4. Walk/run in a marathon! 5. Celebrate with a glass of champagne the day I get into any outfit that is not a plus size.

You are the poster child for men losing faster than women! Wow!!

Amazing!

I hadn't had a period since April of this year. I just thought it was menopause. Well, 5 days after the surgery, it started. The doctor said that wasn't unusual because of the release of estrogen stored in the fat were burning. Fortunately, mine wasn't that bad, but it did start again yesterday. What the hoo?

I came home with one on that Tuesday and removed it that Saturday. I found that it went down quite a bit at night.

Don't feel bad. My guilty pleasure is half unsweetened tea half lemonade! I've lost 22 lbs since surgery 2 weeks ago.

I went to the Doctor today and purposely chose not to weigh until that visit. Well, I've lost 22 lbs since surgery on August 20! I've never lost that much weight in such a short time! I'm excited about the future! So... Excited!

You're gonna be great! I'm 22 lbs down from my Aug 20 surgery date! My first follow up visit was today!

Are you ready?

Weighed in today. My goal is 250 for Halloween. Lost 22 lbs since surgery on August 20. I'm at 275! Only 25 to go before Halloween! Woohoo!

I went to the doctor today and they gave me a sample of the nasal B-12. I'll see if I like it and let you know.

Okay, this may not be a big NSV, but it was to me. I have never worn less than a size 22 or 24 in LB jeans, even when I lost weight on my own. But, today I stopped in LB to buy some Spanx and said let me try on some jeans. My surgery was 2 weeks ago today and I could wear a size 20 jeans! Woohoo! I don't know how much I've lost because I decided not to weigh until I go to the doctor on Wed., but I'm pretty happy with that little victory! Yay me...

When I go to the doctor, I might ask about the injections.

Maybe try getting some sleep. I found that when I got some serious sleep after the surgery, I felt better physically and mentally. I took Ambien and slept like a rock. I felt like a new person the next day. I also had a massage and sat in the steam room a long time. I highly recommend it. The massage helped me turn the corner.

Half unsweetened tea. Half lemonade. From MacAlister's.

Is it because grapes cause gas?

And so has Starr ... Finally!

Thanks for the information. It still doesn't change my WLS conspiracy theory. LOL.

I agree with you. It just doesn't taste the same.

Regarding Jennifer Hudson, didnt she lose for a role as Winnie Mandela? Did the movie ever come out? I always thought that was just an excuse, personally.

Woohoo! Good news!

You look great!
