My "last" meal was a big fail!!! I wanted to EAT!!! My last meal was 2 days before surgery. I had hot wings and fries and lots and lots of diet cherry Pepsi... I stopped drinking soda in January and in July I knew it was bye forever so I DRANK soda! Lol The hot wings were so spicy (and I love spicy!) once I was in week 2-5 post op I was so mad I didn't have a better last meal. I would so have a do over and do better!!!! Lol

Thank you! This totally hit the core for me. I still see fat ol me when everyone sees how great I look now.... I've always been the funny dependable friend. I've never been then skinny popular one. Always the fat girl with the nice smile. My self esteem was on major E! I pisses me off to get people opening the door for me, let me pass first, and double takes when walking. I feel people are shameful and only look now because I look better. Okay off that back to jiggle! I still still all the skin and it all jiggles... Hate it! I think this inhibits my ability to see a smaller me. It moves and it's all hanging and nasty. I never thought I would want plastic surgery but with all this hanging I think it's a huge possibility now:(

Love your story!!!!!! So happy to hear it. Keep up the great work and enjoy the kicking butt in the gym!!!!

They are very popular right now!!! I was thinking about but they are pricey that's what's kept me from trying one. My co workers do them for weight loss. I figure ... I'm losing lol

No. Don't worry it takes more food for a longer period of time to stretch. Forgive yourself and watch what you eat and how much.

Sounds great! And I experienced the same with people in my pre op options class. They would bring soda to class and take smoke breaks. It was a frustrating experience, but we can wish them all well. Yay for you.... One step closer Surgery date 7/25/12

Hormones for sure!!!! Go a head cry it out and eat. It's time. Hopefully he will see that even though he was outta line you are still doing what you need to do, and maybe a sorry is in order. It's okay to cry. This change is HARD!!! Surgery date 7/25/12

Most women become super fertile and birth control becomes ineffective (pill) so don't lose hope! Surgery date 7/25/12

You look GREAT! Surgery date 7/25/12

My last class before surgery was like an hour it wasn't intense they wanted my husband with me and its important info like what do expect and when doc clears for sex etc. I can't imagine a class that long. Don't second guess your day will be here before you know it:) Surgery date 7/25/12

That's GREAT news!!!!!! Way to go:) I know how HARD that is so all the credit to you. I also set a goal and I hit it day of surgery 30lbs down from start to finish.... Just in the nick of time!!!! Surgery date 7/25/12

I just read this I am thrilled for your friend! 5 years and still maintaining! That's motivating to me:) I was also a person who thought like that. I was so upset with my mom for getting rny 3 years ago because she lost 60 lbs before surgery... Why not just keep doing what your doing? It's hard! I now know better. I know too many failed lap band stories that resulted in revision to rny. Think about it. And I wish you all the best in your joinery! Surgery date 7/25/12

Oh wow! I'm going to have to look for this!!!! Thanks for sharing Surgery date 7/25/12

Best of luck! keep us posted Surgery date 7/25/12

I completely can relate to this! I would always see them first and hide duck go away anything short of running away because I couldn't run. Lol I was so ashamed. Now, I don't mind seeing anyone from my past. I don't care if they see me first. I had lunch with friends from high school (12 yrs yikes!) and they noticed! Well I seen them a year ago but I weight less now than I did in high school!!!! Feelin great! Surgery date 7/25/12

Zone perfect are by far the best tasting and it had Vitamins and minerals. I love the strawberry yogurt and white chocolate macadamia Surgery date 7/25/12

LOL I don't think women should fart! I've known my husband for 9 years married for 4. Gave birth once and all it's glory, but I refuse to fart in front of, around, or anywhere near him. LOL he thinks I'm crazy.... I agree!!!! I will suffer the pain until he's away. But post surgery (okay right after that gas was painful) but regular fart gas I still hold it but I do find I am more gassy post, also with fake sugars and protein! Surgery date 7/25/12

I am at about 1 cup per meal at 10 months almost 11 lol Surgery date 7/25/12

Good to hear Surgery date 7/25/12

Me too Surgery date 7/25/12

Oh please let me know how it goes!!!! I've been interested in all things new, but don't know how I would do. Lol I did insanity for a whole 7 minutes like 6 months ago. Grant it I was bigger but it was a huge fail! Surgery date 7/25/12
