Insurance comp sucks.

It is tough dieting, but rny is tougher. Diets let you have a break for vacations, rny is forever. I dont regret, but I.think we would all like to eat whatbwe want and still be thin -

Let the journey begin...
michelecaples replied to vachick64's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I think lastmeals are important. You wont ever get to eat like that again...ever. Im 5 months out and although happy I can enjoy meals out, I am also sad I didnt do any last meals. Do your self a favir. Eat a big ol sandwich. You will never again be able to eat that amount of bread and you have to deconstruct everything. Plus, bread is gross when you have to break it down to applesauce consistency. So enjoy before your journey begins -

For our fb page I hope we are going to keep the critetia as sept 2012 people only. It is a special group to me. I know everyone is in the same place in their journey pretty much and to integrate newbies would nake it not as special for me. If we decide to branch out, I think we should make a seperate group and leave sept to remember as it is. -

Worst thing ?
michelecaples replied to laughingheels's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Every experience is different. I do not regret my choice. I love my new lifestyle. I have had no complications other than emotions gone crazy, but that passes. I love the way I am looking and feeling. Being fat is such a burden on your body in every way. I had high bp, asthma, migranes, irritible bowel and more. All are gone since surgery. I am almost 5 months out and have lost 60 percent of my excess weight. -
Thats so funny about the flintstones. My surgeons said no because they lack trace minerals. I take.bariatric advantage vanilla chewables. They are delicious. I take an iron pill every other day, b12 shot and calcium of course

Why do the stalls come when we are near the important numbers? I want to be in the 150s and I am at 160.2 for several days. I exercised alot yesterday so I am hoping for a loss today. It seems like I lose a pound, then gain .2 then sit there for several days then the cycle again. With exercise I thought I would see bigger drops. I have never had my socks knocked off when stepping on the scale. Its sliw and steady for me. I am beginning to fit size small.workout clothes and pjs!!!! To me that is a miracle! -
How much were you down at 4 months out from surgery?
michelecaples replied to theby_88's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
You are doing above average. If you ever have questions ask your surgeon. They have the experience to guide you. Comparing to others may leave you hurt and depressed at some point. However, your weight loss is amazing
