Surgery with a one-year-old
Shelly2221 replied to redhead87's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I have a one year old and a 3 year old. It was hard to take care of them after the surgery for about 2 weeks. I was extremely sore. My mom stayed with us to help and my husband helped in the evenings. But everyone is different. Maybe you won't be as sore as I was. Good luck. -
So awesome. Btw there's a website that I order leggings from called white plum. They fit so well. They fit anyone from size 0 to 12 comfortably.

Come on people. Us newbies need your success stories. They are sooo encouraging, they help us see the finish line and what it's all worth.

It finally happened to me. I'm down 35 pounds since surgery (jan 22). Today I tried on 2 pairs of my old jeans (size 14) and they fit. Woohoo. Seriously love the feeling of not being afraid to get dressed and see myself in the mirror. And not only that it gives me such motivation to continue this journey and get to my goal of 150. I have 47.5 and half pounds to go and I know I can do it!

I've seen great results from a few of my moms friends getting a neck lift.

300 pounds later....am I living a dream or is this in fact reality?

Truly amazing! Your an inspiration. -
I want to tell you that although I totally understand and empathize where your coming from us meaning the outside world sees someone completely different than you do. I look at every post you write and reply to in such awe. Your beautiful, smart and inspiring. I show your before and after picture to my family because I'm so proud of you. And don't worry I live in Israel so you won't meet any of these people. And these people meaning my family see you the same way as I do. With that being said we spent most of our lives dressing in bigger clothes. Now I'm sure it will take us quite some time to find the right clothes that will fit our new bodies. So I Rochelle send you a big hug and pat on the back from Israel. Without you I wouldn't be so excited for the final result I can't wait for. Your amazing and I'm sure in no time you will feel as beautiful as we all see you. And in the meantime we are all here to listen. Xoxo

Thanks everyone! -
Success stories please!
Shelly2221 replied to Shelly2221's topic in Weight Loss Surgery Success Stories
I agree. I believe it's my fault. I still need to get used to this life change. I don't think I'm too tight because I can still overeat if I choose to. Which is why I'm conflicted of when I should get my next fill. I'm not sure if I should wait until my stuck episodes become less frequent. The last few days its been better. I've been more careful. -
Success stories please!

B 52 I wish I could meet you in person. You are so inspirational. Thanks for you comment. I really appreciate it. I'm 3 1/2 months post op. down 29 pounds. Have an addition 55 to go. I have 8cc in my band right now. I still forget to chew good and take little bites. Due to that I get stuck more than I would like. I'm not sure if I need another fill or not. I feel restriction but not as much as I think I should feel. Any advice? -
I also think you should get a second opinion. Keep us updated.
-
I recently just met someone at my last full who didn't feel restriction until she had 12 1/2 cc. Maybe you don't have enough in your band. Everyone is different.
