Hello everyone, Welcome new members & congrats to old & new members on WLS. I had WLS May 30, 2012 I reach under weight goal. From 211 to currently 115.. I weight goal was 125 size 7 but I'm size 2 and small all over. I was excited to finally be slim but now I'm dealing with saggy skin. I was in a when should I have plastic surgery. I was determine to get plastic surgery August 2014. I was struggling so much to get money together & to top it off I have 3 kids. I came to a decision that I will have my surgery in August 2014 and I will 35,000 by then. I did all my calculation. My hubby who has never been in agreement with this will help me pay for my surgery. My mother who owe me money will start paying me in May. I'm excited extremely happy determine to have things my way. Plans after surgery recovery is 6 weeks & since my daughter will be 17 at that time she will take care of me & her siblings. I will give her money to help her out in her savings. When I'm determine for something it turns out great. Thanks for reading & it's not over you have to continue exercising & eating healthy to continue with weight lost. We didn't get fat over night so over night we won't slim down neither.

Welcome & actually no one had said nothing about my WLS. I no longer discuss it anyway. If someone see me on the streets diet & exercise is what I say. I'm now looking forward to plastic surgery

I'm jumping in... The last time I took birth control was 16 years ago & I have a 16 year old so I missed 1 freaken pill & at age 17 ended up preggo giving birth at 18 lmbo My face was pretty good. Acne but never too much. Years down the road after WLS I have bad acne & dry skin so it's not birth control cuz I wasn't avoiding kids after the first child

Welcome & congrats yeah girl... Welcome to the loser bench(when we started slimming down after WLS weight lost surgery) it sure feels great when the weight & fat comes off.

I see don't you hate that ugh! Stay away or carry your own food. I know your waiting for surgery but this is what I do & I'm 11 months post up I have cashews peanuts almond packages in my car since I'm always on the go I make sure I have Snacks. I also have beef jerky(need to put some in the car) nabisco 100 calories snack mix I bought 100 calorie pretzel stix. It's not really a calorie thing is more of the fact that since I no longer eat like before small packages its easy for me to have & not waste on a big big of snacks. Bought jif to go haven't used it yet. I sometimes carry apple sauce like a little child in my purse lmbo squeeze and wala. I'm afraid of passing out/fainting so I make sure I have snacks & I gotta remember Water.

I'm also focusing on making a life change.

Congrats your doing awesome

We did and the therapist gave up on him. Now father & daughter are in therapy and yet the therapist gave up on him again. He only wants to talk about work & fishing not the issue to better there relationship as father & daughter. It's difficult see my hubby isn't from our time & he was raise the woman stays home does all the chores & cooking & raising the kids. The man works & pays the bills. So there for I do stay home but I had a job but hurt my back so the doctor disable me now I also stay home since as I mention before I have special need kids so meetings & doctors appt and such it's best if I'm home. I know what's going on. I don't mind cooking I love it. I hate chores but it must get done. I drive everywhere. I drink Starbucks. I get my nails done twice a month & pedicure less often but it gets done. Eye brows. I do the shopping grocery & clothing. My issue is.... Hubby is accusing me of sleeping around. With who? Idk I don't have time for that lmbo I have a busy life to even look at another man. You can put up with but so much. He needs to stop cuz he's about to lose his family over this stupid s***

You need will power. Just try your best remember over eating is what got us fat to begin with & eating the wrong food. Remember WLS is only a tool to help us with portion control. If we over eat it force our self we will regain & then WLS ends up not working since we figure we can do what we want but no. Stick to your diet and yes tomorrow is another day but also don't tell your self tomorrow and then tomorrow cuz we end up messing things up & in the long run after surgery we will fail if we think tomorrow we will start fresh again. What keeps me positive is my tiny body. Control portion even if I think I could have another bite nothing feels better then my size 2 jeans & my small shirts. I keep extremely active & I do a lot of things that's not food related. Cross word puzzle my chores walk around many things. We need to get out of the food issue. So we never return to be obese again. I was happy when my doctor took off the word obese from my chart.

Welcome to the group & it's normal to be afraid but it's worth it at the end.

Yes I'm always cold but it's getting better now. My hands are always ice cold. My body is starting to adjust.

Don't feel down. Remember one thing we didn't gain weight over night there for over night it won't disappear. You will lose the weight the slower the better. Look a me you can be going for fixing & being told hey put on 10 more pounds you need some fat to put in your butt. Like smh really now I'm too thin for surgery. Oh well...

Congrats omg how exciting
