Will I'm pretty sure that my post was not negative but suggestive of other alternatives. I do my MY surgeon said never again. Further more I'm out a while and I know who have been out longer, the whole point is to change habits. I do know from what I have seen in the WLS community so far so people do have a hard time doing everything they were told to do. Not that that's ok but you do want to give your body time to adjust and you do want to use your will power to turn to other alternatives. I'm just saying. No harm intended here just suggestions. With you being preop, you will learn see and go through exactly what we are experiencing, it is not easy to turn stuff away. We have to be vigilant is all.

Hi, I haven't had some since last June. I was addicted. My hubby works for Coke cola. I love the crush products. And I have actually found powdered crush, no sugar, no carb, like the crystal light pacs that you put in water. I was a flavored drink women, grape, orange strawberry. I have found the crush in these flavors and it helps a lot. I have seen others that have come across them and they seem to be finding theirs at the dollar store. My local grocery store carries them, so now the coke man is picking up his wife some crush products!!! Good luck!!!

I actually had shopping but love what I look like when I get home. It's the comfort of the home and the fact that ice hidden for so long from others.

Thank you so much!! It's just hard and unbelievable to think I'm at this stage already!!!!

Thanks so much You Guys for the Motivation and Kind Words!!!

So they are coming out of the woodwork...... I have been to two events over the last 2 weekends and everyone is now calling me and texting me to either see what I have done or am I sick. My best friend for whom I didn't tell, told me not to lose anymore weight because I was looking sick. Have you seen my last pic. I have been sick must of my life.. I was sick and dying earlier this year bedridden d/t my heart and now everyone wants to come out and be oh so concerned about me. I chose not to tell anyone because everyone I told was against it... now that I have lost over 80 lbs they want to show their heads. I am so happy now, I love the compliments but for the ones, my so called friends and family that didn't care about me then...why do you care now... Only a hand full of people did I tell about my surgery and I am happy about that decision. It is no ones business and it will stay that way. Thanks for letting me vent. p.s I purchased a dress 2 weeks ago for my son's wedding and had to to take it back Sat morning because it was falling off of me... I am now in a size 12 and loving every minute of it.

Hi everyone, How are things going with you? I was sleeved 7/16. My highest weight was 273.6... I am 177.5. I am much more happier now. Off all my meds, cpap, and pain management. I am doing something new and that is finally living my life for me to the fullest. I hope that you all are doing well!

I just wanted to add to this post, over the last 3 days the comments have gotten worst!!! I am good, I feel great and of course I am continuously brushing off my shoulders but the worst comment was that" because I have lost my Butt, I am no longer BLACK!!!!!!" can you believe that? Of course I told her that I didn't know that having a AZZ defined race and I moved on!!!! I hae been dumping so called friends left and right. Oh and family members telling me to turn it off, that it's enough... LOL

Thanks Bunches!

Thank you!!!

No stalls and yes I exercise 2-3 times a week. My biggest thing is that my bed was another appendge to me. Now I'm constantly moving and on the go.... Are you excersing and how many calories and Protein do you get in on a daily basis?

Zinna, Keep working that tool Girl! What is your calorie count up to now? I try not to do much snaking although during the monthly I have cravings and I do reach for chocolate but only a little. When I do feel hungry I reach for yogurt, I have a hard time with food but it has gotten much better. I still do shakes but one of day and maybe 4-5 times a week. I try to get what I need from dense proteins, fish, chicken and steak.

Hi, Have you tried Biotin? I had hairloss for before surgery, I now this sounds crazy but I am just now getting use to it. I am using biotin and I have noticed less hair when I wash my hair. Do you track your food and Protein? What does your daily food intack consist of?

You know everyone is different, lol. It sounds like your doing good. Just keep trying to move. Have you tried to change up your routine a little so your body can get out of the norm and you can break that stall? Sent from my iPad using VST
