    1/2 Cup Containers

    I bought a 6 pack of Pyrex "shot" glasses at Walmart. They are like 1.44 each and are a 1/4 cup. Good to start puréed food with.

    Extra Skin

    Not a whole lot can fix extra skin besides surgery but it has a lot to do with age, amount of weight lost, genetics, etc. You can get a good body cream and drink tons of water. I know I get really wrinkly when I don't. It also can take up to two years for your skin to adjust as much as it can or will. Have some patience, keep hydrated and use moisturizer with a firming agent. Working out with weights is also helpful. Good luck!

    November Dates

    I just got the call... surgery is at 12:15 and I have to be at the hospital by 10:15 on Monday. UGH I just got really nervous.
  16. Crstal, A light weight? Interesting... You and I have almost the same stats. Very interesting but good to know. And yes, I would be screaming. Hang in there!! It will come off. :-)
  17. My Center of Excellance stated that they risks are about the same with bypass and the sleeve when done properly. The issue with the sleeve is that it is a lot newer so surgeons have less practice. Like a few have stated, I wanted the risk pf dumping since I am a HUGE sweet and carb lover. So, I think it is what suits the individual needs of the patient.
  18. Last day of work before surgery. I'm useless.

    Falling Off Track

    OH Hang in there!! It is SOOO hard. I know. I have figured out thru this process I just can't have carbs. I love them so but as soon as I eat them, the scale shoots up. You can do this! We are here for you. Maybe start weaning yourself off of them? Antoher words eat less and less of the bakery items each day? I had to do this with chocolate.
