    Offended? Dating and weight.

    A guy I met pre surgery sent me a video of a concert. In the background he was telling his friend about me who I had also met. While describing me he called me "that big girl Kelly". His friend responded with oh yea she's really pretty! He said "she's lost over 50lbs she looks even better now". He doesn't even know I heard this Convo because be was so drunk on the video... I think I'm offended by the "big girl" comment. But at the same time he's the one who asked me for my number and took me out and asked me out numerous times after (which I now know why my instinct told me no way). If he's the one who asked me out numerous times how much could 50lbs really have bothered him? Needles to say I feel he's not in that great of shape to be referring to anyone as 'that big girl' lol

  5. Anyone notice they're eating more throughout the day before/during their period? I feel like in eating too much but I know it's just because I eat so little now. I don't want to sound neurotic but I'm due for my period next week and I already see the bloating/cravings starting. Anyone else have this increased appetite? It's a whole new experience trying to combat this with being sleeved.
  6. Sleeves feb 28 down -65lbs! Feeling great loving life!

    Dying to be thin

    That's defiantly a tough situation. I can relate to the guilty feeling. I also admit that be been tempted a few times to make myself vomit. Perhaps thinking about the reasons you chose this surgery in the first place will help when you feel like purging. How has your search been going for a counselor? I saw a thread earlier for over eaters anonymous thats a good resource. Also I know at my gastric center they welcome anyone to the support groups who wants to join. I'd urge you to look in your area for free groups as well. It's common after a huge lifestyle change when we feel that we lose control (like getting sleeved) it often feels like too fast of a change. Since we were used to controlling large amounts of food in our body before, now we can control food that goes out. Perhaps you can find an alternate outlet that gives you similar relief to purging? Art, music, friends? I don't mean to get personal but using your supports such as friends family ect is also very important. Good luck Hun!

    What to take for cramps

    I use those heat wraps that stick to your body. They last all day and work really well I get horrible cramps. Also mild Ativan .5mg if your dr will give it to you works well too or a muscle relaxer
  10. Happened to me at my period but I kept workin out and are more protein and now I'm down another 10lbs about two weeks later

    Dying to be thin

    Sounds like you need to address the mental aspect of why your purging and why your going to that extreme. Control issue? Insecurity? past trauma? Any hospital will have mental health services social workers or clinician you can seek out even if you need to go through the ER. They can't refuse you treatment if you don't have the cash. Best of luck

    NuvaRing?

  16. I'm due for my period this weekend and I'm feeling/looking bloated. I also only lost 3lbs this week ( compatrd to 24 the previous weeks).I'm three weeks out. Everyone says I keep looking thinner but I feel yucky this week. Has anyone else experience slower weight loss with their period looming?

    But i dont wanna!

    Hey guys I can relate. I'm also chronic pain as I have chronic migraine. For the last three years I've had migraines Everday varying in intensity. What I found was there are your better days (and worse) so start slow. Park farther from the grocery store. Walk to get the mail once a day and then make it twice a day. There's also chair exercise you can do. Grab a family member or friend to help motivate you. Don't feel like you have to go running, go at your own pace. Thankfully with the surgery I've had SO much relief that I've been able to start worki out again and it's such a relief! I hope this helps a little. Best of luck. I can relate entirely. Xx
