Today, has to be a great moment for me in my journey so far. My seven year old daughter comes and wraps her arms around me, and as she noticed that she can hug me and her arms fit around me,she looked up and said momma, I can finally hug you and squeeze my arms around you. You are getting skinny and I am so proud of you. I just teared up and said thank you baby, I just felt so good to hear my kid say such a nice thing. What a moment in my journey!! 62 pounds down so far, and feeling good.

It was a great feeling, my daughter is the #1reason I had wls. I want to live for her. She is an inspiration for me. I couldnt have kids, and I was blessed to be able to adopt her. Now I can be here for her.

I can honestly say, my sex drive is usually zero, but there are days where its a must have, and its crazy. My body is diff, trying to figure itself out.

I have NEVER been regular on my periods until, I had my gastric bypass, now I get it every month like clock work. I hate being a girl sometimes.

I take prozac liquid everyday, seems to be doing the trick, not the greatest tasting stuff but heck of alot better than crushing or opening any capsules. I hope you find something that works. :-)

Ok, so not even going to hold back, ive been horrible at eating lately. Ive been on peanut butter, bananas, baked chips, sugar free candies, and rice cakes, and fruit, cheese. Of course not all in one day. But im hungry every 2 hours. If I dont eat ill feel super moody and want to eat a cow. Anyone ever get hungry?? I hate that I still feel hungry...i even try and do other things to distract myself from wanting to eat.past 2 weeks now ive lost only 2pounds. Bummer, hope im not over eating.

Yes I do live in pensacola.

Who is eating pizza?? I sure cant eat pizza.

I have to admitt, I need to take in more protein. Only doing one daily. But I drink a bunch of water, 60 oz daily at least. But ur right I need to intake more protein. Big sigh.

Its here!!! I bought one for my aniversary date night. I look amazing...first time ive felt beautiful in a while. I can walk in room and feel confident.

Awww, dang, I didnt take any pictures! I should have..sorry ill have to do that next time I get dolled up.

So today, im weeding my "big" clothes. Im a bit scared to get rid of them. I dont plan on going back but im a bit skeptical.

Im scared, but then as I was trying things on and it hung on.me like draps I was like ok. Your gone, and NOT coming back. It was a bit relieving to say goodbye to curtains and draps aka my big clothes.

Ok, so I have never owned a full length mirror for all the obvious reasons, I am scared to death to finally put myself in front of one. I was thinking that ill buy one once I hit my onederland mark. Im scared to face the whole me now. Even though ive lost 53 pounds in 5 weeks. Big sigh almost there.

My spouse is a trucker, and is so hard to eat healthy on the road, kiddos for working hard at it. Keep it up!

Ok, so sobe life water came out with coconut water, its so good and refreshing and light to drink, im in love my mom

That would be a negative. I have no dumping from it.

No, its just flavored water, never did the energy drink stuff.. Sobe life water only has 80 calories per 20 oz bottle. It yummy, andit makes me happy!! Lol :-)

I miss my momma good ole cuban food cooking. And cookies.

I get light headed everytime I stand up quick or bend over, or getting up out of bed. went to the dr. and found out my blood pressure was dropping to low. So I was instructed to intake all my fluids, and add a little salt in my diet to elevate pressure. So far it doesnt happen nearly as much, since I started what they told me.

Have you tried thin shaved turkey meat? Or eating canned chicken with some light mayo? I eat baked chicken thighs with gravy. Pretty good. I try to eat moist foods. They seem to do well. Hope this helps a little

I am 2 weeks post op. I noticed that when I bend over or stand up too quick I get really light headed and feel like im going to pass out. I often have to hold the wall and close my eyes for a minute for the sensation to stop. Anyone ever experience this post op?

Sorry I havent responded. Got busy behind going back to work. My dr. told me to just sit still and close my eyes when I had the spells. Had to cut back on my heart meds also. This really isnt much helpful info. Still having spells but not as often.

It was my blood pressure running low. Went to doc today, they did sitting standing bp. Sitting 90/60, & standing 80/60. I was extremely light headed. So he gave me instructions on what to do. So hopefully will fix problem.

Please send me the list also, jbazain@gmail.com thank you!
