    June Post Ops!

    heck yeah my breasts are long now which is hard to buy an accurate size bra and my back/side far is soft which spills over in on the sides of my bra so right now I wear 38 g/DDD but prob could go down to 36DD but not a good looking DD cause the volume is in the bottom part of my breasts and not on the chest of u get my drift lol. I could use a lift and a tuck.

    i had rny august 13 2013

    Great job fellow RN. I'm 9 months out myself am feeling great best decision that I have ever made. Keep up the good work!
  4. Don't give up, you're not alone our minds can be our worst enemy. When did you have surgery and how much have you lost so far? I'm 8 months out I've lost 93# my weight is stuck at 162-164 I'm often at war with my mind. I remind myself that this is not a race, if I get off track I pick myself up and start over. You got this!

    Two weeks post op

    Congratulations on your surgery, if I were you I would take it easy start with walking nothing strenuous, pace yourself and listen to your body. I had surgery at the end of September 2013 I didn't lift weights for 6 weeks and I started doing zumba at the end of my first month. Good luck hopefully this will answer your questions.

    June Post Ops!

    you know Baconville I think that has happened to me! My director and I got along with each other well when I was the jolly fat nurse, now that I am slimmer I approached her about some work conditions that I felt were poor and my concerns. Next thing I know I was in a meeting with her boss and hr wth I still the same person, yes I have changed in my appearance so I think that for some that is threatening.

    Any regrets?

    The 1St and 2ND week after surgery I didn't have regret but more thoughts of what the hell did I just do. With that being said I am 7 months out had surgery in 9/30/13 I am down 90# something that I would have never been able to do in my own. My weight loss doesn't feel super fast but when I look at the numbers I think my God! I don't have any regrets, with that being said not everyday is a good day. Some days I don't feel well, sometimes I get tired and moody. One thing that I can say is if I had to do it over again I would! One of the best things I have ever done!

    Temptation!

    I know how you feel had surgery in 9/30/13 I know the rational part if me says that I didn't gain weight over night, and old habits die hard. I have been struggling with my weight for years and my me lifestyle is definitely a work in progress. My hubby and kids didn't have Weightloss surgery ago I don't expect them to not eat what they love just because I can't. But it is hard watching eat burgers and links and beer! what I would give to have a beer or glass of wine! sigh we will get through this phase and I keep telling myself nothing tastes as good as thin feels. it doesn't help that I've been in a stall for the last week! Good luck I hope everything works out
  15. I bought some colace because I have been majorly constipated! hopefully it will help because no one should have to give birth out of their stinky hole lol!
