I am bummed, I am trying to win this contest! I can't believe I gained a 1 lb this week, and I did go work out and have been watching my intake/calories.
--- On the bright side I did loose 1'" in my waist and 2" in my hips. -
Has anyone had soreness on their left side(surgery side) after doing weights? I just started doing weights 2 weeks ago at the gym and I seem to be sore all the time now.

Tummy Tuck...have You Had One?
Anamor2011 replied to SouthernSleever's topic in Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery
My husband had gastric bypass and lost over 225 lbs. He is kind of where you are now. about 200 lbs and 6'1. He works out like crazy and has built so much muscle. His arms and thighs look so much better. But like you the abdomen and back are the biggest problems. He wears those compresion work out shirts everyday to help with the loose skin. He did have a consult with a surgeon he quoted him over $10,000 for the whole body lift. They basically make a cut all around your waist and lift your upper and lower body. Also included new placement of nipples and belly button. The more he works out the more it is a reality that is the only way to get rid of the excess skin is surgery. Good luck! I know I want to do it too, but totally do not look forward to the recovery time and pain. -

One thing I have loved about the sleeve vs the band is that I am not vomiting all the time! lol Is true, I had gotten so used to vomiting with the lapband, like almost everyday, that I was expecting something similar with the sleeve! I hadn't had an episode since surgery in December. Well on Sunday, not sure what happened. At about 8 am, I had half a protein bar and like 3 oz of milk 2%(maybe this is what caused it) and got really nauseous and vomited just a lil bit. I had milk the previous morning also, so not sure what it was. Either way, I am still very happy with my sleeve and glad I don't have to be vomiting all the time.

4 Months Today And Not Happy!
Anamor2011 replied to Pammie's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I will be 4 mos out on sunday and will only have lost about 30 lbs also. I feel your pain. I started with a low BMI and was a revision from lapband. It has been really slow for me, really I am averaging 2-4 lbs a month weight loss. BUt on the bright side inches are coming off and I am getting smaller eventhough the scale is moving super slow! hehe So hang in there, you are heading in the right direction. At least this will give your skin time to catch up to the loss and won't have so much extra skin. GOod luck! -
15Lbs Down Already But You Can't Even Tell :(
Anamor2011 commented on rodswife's blog entry in rodswife's Blog
Don't be so hard on yourself. Usually others will start noticing changes before you do. If it helps start taking your measurements. Most of the time you will loose inches more than on the scale. That has help me keep things in perspective. I have only lost about 30 lbs in over 3 mos, so believe me I need all the encouragement I can get. But I can tell a difference in my clothes and sizes. I do measure myself at least once a month and the inches are coming off. YOu are beautiful and on your way to a better you. It is a process, so hang in there. -
you are doing awesome! You are just glowing with confidence and beauty!

Just Saw My Post-Op Diet
Anamor2011 replied to esheldon76's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
It is hard to the pre-op liquid diet, but post op, you will have problems just getting the liquids in. Like Junior Guru said, trust your dr's and do your best to follow the diet. Good luck! -
