11 months out Can eat apples if I remember to go slow and chew chew chew! PB2 can also appear at Smoothie King shops I was taking 6 injections of 2 different insulin shots plus 2 tablets a day. Now I take no insulin and the pills are down to 1 am and 1/2 in evening, morning BS# run around 100 so look forward to a much better life without the complications of diabetes. I do stay away form Carbs and sugar but it's worth it I'm down 112#!

you go girl life is fun and enjoy all the perks of losing!

great post I really can go with what you said . Changing our brains is as difficult as the first few weeks of this life time journey!

Great to hear from the march winners (at losing ) I'm having a little difficult keeping in touch with some of the March gang ! Hope all are doing well. Starting wt 349 hospital 336 CW 266 hit a stall the last 2 weeks getting a little frustrated hope the scales start moving again soon let's hear from some more Marchers

My group of doctors gives there WLS clients a card that states we can only eat a small amt. of food and some have said its illegal not to allow u to eat a child portion if it's on the menus

Congrats looking healthy hope you are loving life!!!

Yes there are rude and thoughtless people in this world but this is YOUR journey and you have to do it on your terms ! I'm sorry this happened to you but keep on keeping on. There will always be those that want to express CONCERN for you and don't think or know how tough this process is! Keep a smile on your face and politely tell them to BUTT OUT!

You are so awesome for all you do. Please send your list! Thanks. dbsylvest@yahoo.com

Hi all I've not been on in awhile everyone sounds like there doing good Started 3/24/14 at 348 CW 289 seems slower now than at first I'm pleased but still having meatj issues .

My Rny was3/24/14 an still having trouble with meat. Still doing liq. proteins lost about 65 lbs depending who's scales u use! I'm wondering just how long it takes befor eating feels so strange?

It will get better! I'm 2mos. post and down 60 lbs it has been up and down with the feeling normal. I still have days that I think will this ever get easier ,but then I remind my self with all the good that has happened. Like being able to move better, off most of ny meds, no cpac machine, no insulin (and I was on a lot) ,plus the energy that I have I hadn't seen in years! Not to mention the 60 lbs gone! This is the best thing I've done for myself and it is a life style change. Give your body time to heal and follow your doctors plan, call him if you can't get your protein and fluids in.

Need some input. I'm 7weeks post and stay nauseated just about all the time, I've done well with the Protein and the Water but in the last week and half I'm having trouble tolerating it! I'm still using Protein shakes for most of my protein a an trying some sold foods that doesn't see to be a problem. Mornings seem to be the worst . Any help appreciated,thanks

I've been were you are, the fear the uncertainty , is God in this, and a whole lot of what ifs! I'm 8 weeks post and it is the best thing I've ever done! Yes it's challenging but given all the thing I no longer have to deal with it's well worth it no more insulin, no acid reflux sleep apn better , can say I breath so much better, joint pain better plus the 50 lb weight loss erasures me I can do this. I know this is a Long term track but as aposed to the one I was on this is 100% better good luck you will love your new you!

You look great proud of the work u have done Keep up the plan and you will"even it out"

Gee people we all have to go on this journey and most jump in scared not informed! We all start with wanting the fat gone--- then realize it's going to take work ! Let be encouraging!

If I've heard it once I've heard it 100 times WLS is a tool what you do with it is really up to you! If we neglect what got us here we will not be successful long term. I'm in this for the long haul so addressing all that surrounds eating and the lack there of is a priority for me.

Please send me your list I really appreciate all your post they have all been on point and calming ! Something that's not always noted on here ; ) dbsylvest@ yahoo.com. Thanks sooo much
