Raised and lived in the Shreveport, LA area - in Plano (Dallas area), TX now

Im 3 1/2 months out n just ate 2lbs last week. Had a pound a week before that and a pound the week before that keep in mind thats 1lb IN SHELL. Thats like 2-3oz peeled per lb.

Dont let this out too far!!! Youll ruin the image men have fought hard to earn on here of being insensitive asses! Just search it!

I kinda skipped pureed.... Oops

Looks like were all stalling at the same time

Ugh wish i could get a good loss kick start. Havent really budged much in the last week n a half.

Lol id love it if it happened

Lets see... Rangers game, Six Flags, Scarborough Faire Renaissance fest until the end of May.. Strip clubs lol.. U know the usual

So the DFW singles should set up a night for drinks

Looking gorgeous Dana!

Me lol. Plano

So when do you start noticing attention from the opposite sex? Im about 3 1/2 months and 57lbs out... 60 more to go. Nothin yet :-/

Looks like I'll definitely be having loose skin issues.. I'm 3 months and a week or so out... I can already tell it in my inner thighs/butt/arms and some dimpling in my lower stomach... was terrified of this. Looks like I'll be having plastic work when it's all said and done, but that scares me worse than this surgery did. Anyone else having issues with loose/dimpling skin this soon? I'm down close to 60lbs but have 60 more to go... that's what worries me.

Im only 33 and get my water and protien in way more oftenthan not. Maybe itll catch up

Yes they are. Ive had like one a month last two months.

@michigan - my story exactly. Im full at 4 but feel like theres room for more. Staying 900-1200 cal a day too

How are ya'll "still not able to eat much"? I swear i feel like I dont have ENOUGH restriction. Im a little over three months out and i can eat 4oz of sirloin at one meal - i hear people talking about its a struggle to eat an egg though? I have my surgery records (nothing wrong - just trying for military eventually and ill need it) and she used a 40Fr. Bougie - i swear Ive read of people getting a 48Fr one which is bigger. Just confused.

mine's more anger and irritation too ... totally feel ya.

Yup even as a guy.

Oh maybe they make an exception for nurses.. Thought of that too.

For anyone whos curious or following this - I finally cornered the nurse recruiter and got to talk to him. He told me hes personally seen a bypass waived and has heard of others. He said of course type 2 diabetes or heart disease is a no go - told him i have zero health issues. Now to just get into shape as the weight keeps melting off!!

Mine are still here at the three month mark.

Ok so I posted this same thing at MFP - if you saw it there thank you for your response lol. If not then I'm curious what your thoughts are! Do you find bald men sexy or a turn off? (no you won't hurt my feelings - I'm good with who I am )

Lol im not complaining so far all positive responses
