I had the Sadness emptiness feeling around 3 weeks. Also was having some back pain issues and had tears for a while over that. But I'm back to work and Exercising i feel Amazing as compared to before. i take St Johns worth Tea before I go to work. It does help me.

When I look at protein bars I feel like they will lead to desire candy bars. So OTR I totally agree!

Good subject. The idea of protein bars has cross my mind. But my question is when do you start. I feel I'm too early out. I'm 7 weeks out. I'm tired out my current protein shake as well.

You Rocked your sleeve. Congrats.

I have had this more than once. Before I have a thinking in one area.

Woohoo. Congrats. You look Amazing! Wonderful.

Very Pretty. You look great. Congrats.

Wow. I see a big difference. You look great. Congrats

I tried upping my protein from 80grams to 100grams it didn't change my weight. But I lower my carbs and stop the slider foods and it help. I just broke my stall. Yay

My special order work clothes got picked up. They were a size 3x. So on the way to work I had to change 3 times because even the xl were too large that had recently bought til I picked up my uniforms. From a 3x to a loose Xl. Yay Not bad for 7 weeks. Woohoo

My 5 year old inspired me the most to do this surgery. I wanted to see him get married and be a Grandma to his children as well as the others. Let alone take him for walks to the park and go on his school trips. You must remind yourself of why you are doing this Surgery. And it so nice your Hubby is going with you. Good luck wishing you a speedy Recovery!

Cosmetic Surgery? No this is about your Health end of the Story. If a person needed Heart Surgery they get it. If they have a broken arm they get it fixed. There is a need to be sensitive to your immediate family , children and explain it in such a way but don't let it deter you from accomplishing your goals. I have 5 boys and not all gave their full support but everyone has adjusted more importantly I have.

Sleeve February 27th too. Yay. SW 266 today 232. 34lbs down I am a slow looser. I thought the weight will fall off like it did in the beginning. But I also was not exercising and I was eating slider foods like cracker and peanut butter daily Not getting enough water. I take my protein though. But I am not UnHappy about the weight loss. Looking at the positive I look good to me compared to 266lbs. From a 3x to a XL. Yay

Don't tell anyone but I had a small food funeral 1 week before Surgery! Lol You will be just fine. Let it go. That is why we had or will getting this Surgery is because we need this tool and help. Now loose the guilt and start again. We will be here to support you too. But Really just Relax. Good luck and wishing you a speedy Recovery!

Congrats.

Oh it also happened to me at a grocery store with Splenda. It was more severe, thought I would passed out in the bathroom. Now however 7.5 weeks out I can tolerate a little Splenda but not certain shakes or sweets.

Premier protein shakes does that to me. Early out i had my hubby drive me to Sams club for the shake. i open one in the car drank some and I got a dizziness that lasted a few hours. Seriously also the cramping and off to the bathroom. I don't handle the sugar well. I couldn't even do Splenda the first week or so. So no desire for sweets for me. Funny I use to be a Sugar-Addict.

Hi check out my profile. Dr. Hungness all the way at Northwestern. He is the Best. I had such a great experience it was like a medical Spa.

Inspiring and Totally Amazing!

Congrats. Looking great!

Iburtie4 You are giving me ideas. For my DH tonight. Lol

I was almost was late for work because my 3x pants no longer fit. They were a special order uniform pants ordered a while ago for work that just arrived. Even the XL pants I bought and wore this week was loose. From a 3x to a loose XL. One lady at work ask me how much weight I lost in passing me in the hallway, I said a little. She said no way you lost a lot. Last my son came home for college and said how my Husband think I'm going to be a Hottie! Though I'm at a Stall! So what. I'm Happy about My my Decision to have this Surgery. Yay

Way to go. I got some of that rain too. Chicago.Yay

Way to go guys. We are definitely improving ourselves in a such a fantastic way.

Wow your word are encouraging.
