write everything down in a journal. Food, excercise, moods. Accountability. Have fun

instead of being scared, think of all the happy stuff like all the cute little clothes, the energy you will have, take less medications, love mirrors again, and my favorite.... Clothes shopping. Relax and enjoy your journey.

Warm Weather NSV
ladypoohbear replied to Sophie74656's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
I flew from Washington to Arizona recently. I got to wear shorts and loved it. But the biggest surprise was when I sat on the airplane seat and slowly buckled my seatbelt. I saw it buckle, heard it click and had a foot of of belt left over. I was so happy I'm dancing in my seat singing, smiling,,,,, bee bopping around ,then... .the stewardess came over and asked if I was o.k.? After I realized people were watching; I told her I had lost 144 pounds and was happy I was able to buckle the seatbelt without needing an extender. Next thing I know...people are clapping. I bet my face was a million shades of red. I thanked all and asked if we can go now..... That indeed was a new experience I shall never forget.... -

Non-diabetic..hypoglycemia?
ladypoohbear replied to Kaye21's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Ive had high blood sugar and on metformin. June 2013 had gastric bypass and ever since my b/s has been low. My main doctor prescribed checking my blood 1 x day. I check it bout 4 or 5 times day because I feel light headed etc. Told my doctor this and she basically said notin. So I have to buy more strips at the store. Very costly. Always carry Protein bar with me where ever I go. My advice is carry a snack and b/s meter with you always. Enjoy your journey. -
Hello to all.... Well here I go. Not really sure what a blog is. Kinda like a journal? I just know that i'm 141 pounds lighter and am lovin it. .Im more out going, want to do more things, love shopping for clothes. I change my clothes 2 to 3 times a day. I wonder if this is normal or is it just me who has gone clothes crazy? But they only thing I hate is the pain in my back, neck,shoulder, hip,and leg pain is still there...Darn it...But hey , my joints arn't carrying all that extra weight. Have an awesome day....
