So I had my surgery 6/11/12 and this ain't working! I no longer dump on anything! I can eat more than I'm supposed to. And I've only lost 60 lbs. Started at 338 day of surgery 321 but was 336 after surgery I'm at 278 now. Its so freaking hard because I no longer have support from my husband who demands junk food fried food pop and fast food. I talked to my Dr and nut and they said don't eat it....if it was that easy I wouldn't have needed the surgery to begin with. I walk about a mile a day but that's the extent of exercise. I have 3 levels in my house and 4 kids so I'm constantly up and down stairs. Oh and the kicker I now suffer from insomnia so I only sleep 2-3 hours a night. Sorry for the rant I'm just so frustrated #stillfat

Appletini is the best! Mojito tastes like dish soap -
They cut through skin and muscle rearranged your guts. You can't eat and probably barely drink and if he expects for you to do more than go to the bathroom this soon he's absolutely crazy....

Any One Do This In Three Months?
bellepink77 replied to worm2872's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I didn't have a required Dr supervised diet. Thank God -
I never quit. I tried but couldn't, when asked by my surgeon I told him I was on nicotine patch. I'm 7weeks out and I'm still smoking. I promised myself I'd quit for my 35th birthday 11/03/12

My Dr said no lifting more than 5lbs for 6 weeks

I never quit smoking. Bad I know. I'm just being honest. I plan on quitting, I guess I'm just not ready. I know all of the health risks. It helps me get thru not being able to eat. And it helps my stress levels. I don't drink or do drugs. Prior to surgery I only had 2 vices eating and smoking. I'm down to one vice now. I promised myself I'd quit on my 35th birthday (November 3rd)

Hair Loss - When To Expect It.
bellepink77 replied to BBdoodle's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
There are 3 stages how hair growth telogen anogen and catagen there is a hormone released by the body due to trauma or stress that puts hair in the resting stage. Nioxin is said to neutralize that hormone. Do I know it works? No but I'm praying it does. -

I know you didn't mean it to offend anyone I was joking. As far as relapsing its a fact of life my mom is a life long alcoholic so are most of her siblings. She's fallen off the wagon more times than most. Its a daily struggle no shame in it. Dust yourself off and get back on. -
