Gastric Bypass Surgery Progress Pictures
JustJenn replied to JustFluffy's topic in Weight Loss Surgery Success Stories
I'm one month post op. The first pic is from January at my highest @389. It was also the first of my pre op journey. I realize I have a long ways to go but I'm already seeing and feeling the changes. & so happy I had this done. Today I'm 331. [ATTACH]916[/ATTACH] -

I have the same card.... Just got the ok to eat food, but I've glanced at menus to see what kids meals have and like dennys is pizza mac&cheese cheese burger I think in most cases the senior menu would be a better choice.

So Im able to eat anything now (but red meat and bread, pasta, & tortilla) I ate chicken for dinner and I obviously didn't chew enough I threw it up it took 3 up chucks to get the 3 pieces up. It wasn't as bad as I thought to get the food out, but now I'm scared! I called it quits and am having soup for dinner.... Safe! Failed first day. Maybe I was just to excited to eat food/chew!

How Many People Have You Told?
JustJenn replied to MrsCaluza's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I felt the exact same way! But now i have told people who I never planned on telling and they are ok with it. I wonder about the pictures, but i think i can use it as a tool to teach my 2 year old daughter healthy living. All the luck! -

Feeling Discouraged
JustJenn replied to jeanetteramirez2's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I just had my 1 month post op appointment and I've stalled the last week, and was told its because we aren't eating much and our bodies want to hold it. I'm clear for exercise now so I'm eating chicken and going to get this going! 1 month down 26lbs From my highest/January down 56lbs! -
I had the mirena iud put in about 6 weeks before surgery and all doctors were good with it!

Emergency Room :(
JustJenn replied to punk.rock.mama's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I just talked to a friend who went into surgery 4 days after me the exact same thing JUST happened to her & she is 3 weeks out! Wow ... Take it easy! -
I can't answer personally. But my mom is 2 years out and wears body pieces/bathing suit gurdle looking... She wears them everyday and if I see her in the evening we laugh she has a roll, but she is having skin removal surgery in 6ish weeks. She keeps telling me I need one I need I need one.... Maybe when I lose more.

Oh our Starbucks girl! Can I get a iced coffee decaf? With sf vanilla?
-
Really not looking forward to this experience when I go back to work they do Starbucks, donuts, lunches oh man I'm in for some venting next week!

I'm so sorry you are experiencing this. I knew my extended family wouldnt be supportive so I didn't tell them! But for your husband, I would suggest making an appointment with a counselor so he can put words to his feelings and you can explain how important this is to you and your health. Do you have children? Explaining how a healthy you can mean a more involved mommy or a healthy you for a future family. Best of luck!
