  1. Mine did not come with a DVD. My son showed me a couple of exercises (baseball player) but I need more of a workout routine. I'll check out YouTube.
  2. Let's see I weighed in at 296 the day of my surgery 12/19/13. Today I weigh 248.5. I'm losing about 2.5/3.5 lbs per week.

    Does anyone regret it?

    Hang in there! The first month was difficult. I'm at three months out and I feel pretty darn normal! It will get better. Push through this!
  5. Ultimately you need to decide who and what you are having the surgery for. The answer was clear for me: myself, Health and Family. I am 3 months post op and just made brown rice, roasted chicken with gravy, and corn for my family. I ate chicken and rice with a little gravy. We all sat down as we always have and had dinner and talked about our day. The big difference is I didn't have any dinner rolls and I'm 70lbs lighter!

    Diet Coke Addiction

    I've tried the carbonated beverages and was unimpressed by how different they tasted. I loved diet cherry Pepsi and coke zero had one the other day and it just tasted like syrup. I did try a ginger ale which I wasn't a fan I before and it helped settle my stomach. I'm still afraid of carbonation though!
  7. Hi! I'm 3mos from surgery and am down a little over 50lbs (72.5lbs) all together. I have a 14yo and a 9yo. Can I count my hubby he's 33;)? lol we just moved to Washington DC for a job promotion about a month after my surgery....it's been insane! Trying to establish our routines in a new place and me having a new job, with new eating habits! It's been hard and frustrating but also wonderful and liberating. I have so much more energy and for the first time in my daughters life-I slid down the slide with her! Twice! Sometimes my family can't keep up with me now!

    Lost More Than The Weight

    Hang in there. I am 3 months post op and have lost about 50lbs. I just took a trip to value village for some slacks and walked away with a pair of 9west shoes, a new pair of pants with tags, a new shirt and two pairs of leggings for $46. The best part they were three sizes smaller than before . Do you, do what feels good.
  9. I would say mine was riding in airplanes. I travel a lot for work and it was so uncomfortable to be in a flight at over 300lbs. The seatbelt barely fastened. I was just plain old tired. It seems like a small thing now but it really hit me during a flight to AK when I was actually booking a flight based on getting a window seat because I was more comfortable there.
