I just went to lane Bryant and was measured and got 2 new bras. The fit good and hold up the girls nicely. Seems like the consensus is Lane Bryant.

Also dehydration can changes in mood and thought. I did some crazy things when I was on liquid diet.

Low Blood Sugars What's Going On
Wgbem replied to line-dancer's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I was also a diabetic and a nurse. I left the hospital off meds. Blood glucose levels have been stable. I check daily, more than I did with diabetes. Are you insulin diabetic or non-insulin dependent? -
Cereal/whole Wheat Toast/pasta/rice
Wgbem replied to lovely29's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I usually eat a cup of Special K cereal with skim plus milk (it has more protein) for Breakfast with a greek yogurt. I eat occasional brown or small wheat Pasta. I don't like it so it is not too often. Definitely an acquired taste. -
Chew, chew, chew......

Don't forget the emotional side of things. .....when someone talked to mr about the need to lose weight, I felt they did not love me or felt ashamed of me and I would eat more....hiding behind the fat.

You look amazing! Unfortunately I have many before pictures. What I cannot wait for are the after pictures
-
Yes I would love to know what helped you gain so much succes? You look great!
-
Wow what a difference! -
I am so inspired ! -
Wow, you look wonderful! How encouraging! -
I use the Lose It App to count calories. I would recommend counting because you will be surprised how the calories add up. When you get to that place where you reach a plateau you can look at the calories and amount of protein you are eating and adjust accordingly

You all will be fine. We all endured and it was fine. Welcome to the other side of banding.

Do You Know Who This Is??
Wgbem replied to spoiltmom's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Congrats. I know that is a good feeling ( coming from someone who has run from pictures). -
You will have some pain as the port settles in. I had that same thing and that was what I was told. You are still very early in your surgical process. The steristrips will fall off. You are just 2?weeks out so expect that you will have some aches and pains. Welcome to the other side.

If it is this one day then I would say it is just a passing thing but if it continues, call your surgical office.

Is Soda Bad Once In A While?
Wgbem replied to kittylove32's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I am able to have one cup of coffee. As someone stated earlier with soda it is more about the carbonation and the sugar (if drinking regular soda). -
Feeling Discouraged!
Wgbem replied to suzannelturner's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I think your weight loss is great too but as Honk said what is your activity level? Do you exercise? Are you getting your fluid in? Are you getting your protein in? I found that those things are important to continued weight loss. You are doing fine. Don't listen to others. There are people out there waiting to put a pin in your balloon. -
7 Months Post-Op Down 50 Lbs
Wgbem replied to Rebecca Cain Salpacka's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
That is wonderful and you are looking great. I know the feeling and excitement when you do something you have not been able to do in years. Keep up the good work. Are you exercising at all? -
Is Soda Bad Once In A While?
Wgbem replied to kittylove32's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I agree when it is said we must be prepared. Not everyone is going to live our lifestyle so I think we have to assume they are not and prepare ourselves. -
Is Soda Bad Once In A While?
Wgbem replied to kittylove32's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I think we all seem to have been told the same thing- no soda. I would have watered the juice down and drank that versus any soda. -
