Omg! I found people from oregon finally. I would love some support I live in salem oregon it would be so great to connect and maybe plan a get together. It would be great to hear from people who r going through a similar process. My friends are great and do their best to support me but no one will get it unless they r going through it. This is my email melinaleon81@hotmail.com

What Was Your Final "straw That Broke The Camels Back"
Mayshula replied to bigjoe102's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
*Being 345lbs at 27 and my ginocologist told me there is nothing wrong with u u just are too fat and if u continue this way u will die soon! I know direct but I needed it! *Losing 120lbs gaining 60 a few months later losing 80 lbs again gaining 20 once more I was done dieting as extreme I was doing it for 5 years I wanted to enjoy life not just exercise and diet every single day and avoiding social life because it would get me out of my diet. *feeling rejected even for people I love and know they love me Now I'm 32 years old I got my sleeve done 3 months ago I have lost 50+lbs and feel great at 182lbs I still have a way to go but it was the best decision I could of make to give myself a second chance to live and this time in a healthier way! -
U can do it! U know u want it and that's all u need to make happen! Good luck! If u have a myfitnesspal account u can find me there under siemprechapina it helps when u communicate with others that r going through a similar process☺

Mayshula replied to auntjanny's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
Hahaha I know that feeling, I had my surgery about 3 months ago I have lost 50+ pounds I just to be a 48 dos now I am 38 DDD yes my back got smaller but my boobs haven't lol I love my big boobs but they r starting to look gigantic with my new body ???? good luck! -
I'm having a hard time eating enough, I was getting about 700 calories daily and burning about 800 with exercise. My nutritionist told me that for the quantity of exercise I'm doing I need to eat from 1200 to 1500 calories so I'm not running my body on empty it sounds too much for me I have to put 100 gms of protein if I want to keep exercising the way I do which is 1.5hr of cardio 5 to 6 times a week! Is any one out there eating about that same amount of calories? I'm afraid I will stop losing weight and I'm doing really good but I don't want to hurt myself either by not eating enough! I got the surgery to be and feel healthy but it looks like I like extremes! I don't know what to do ????

How many calories are u getting in?
Mayshula replied to Mayshula's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I agree with u I like to know how many calories an taking in! I used myfitnesspal I have been doing that for about 4 years and I love. With my vgs I have a hard time getting 1200 calories in, but I don't want to get sick either so I'm trying every day I have been reaching my goal of 100 grams of daily protein but is so hard. Sometimes I think I'm afraid of food because I don't want to stretch out my stomach???? I know it sounds crazy but that is what the crazy voice in my head tells me! U sound really active...i love to exercise too and love riding my bike after 17years! My username in myfitnesspal is siemprechapina or we can connect through Facebook too. It would be great to talk with someone who is going through a similar process! -

Mayshula replied to Rebellious Butterfly's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
51 and feeling great! Best decision I have made in my life! -
Haha its great to read all this omg! It helps me so much...I am losing from my waist down but my boobs are not going anywhere they now seem extremely huge! I like my big boobs and have always embrace them but I'm getting disturbing looks and I hate that! I'm not losing pounds but inches and sizes for sure size 12 is getting big for me now and that makes me happy! We can do this people...stay strong!

What my nutrición is told was that I was eating to little calories. I was doing the same thing now I'm eating between 700 and 1000 sounds like a lot but if u eat the right ones it will help, more Protein less carbs. Don't get discourage it's part of the process! Stay strong!

I am finally in onederland! I am so happy I had no seen a 1 like the first number on my scale for 17 years it was a big deal for me. I cried for a few minutes cuz I couldn't believe it. I don't regret doing this surgery at all I have lost 36lbs so far this is my 7th week and I am already back at the gym just doing 45 mins on the elleptical I also ride my bike to my work and walk during lunch time some days, I'm having a hard time drinking my water though. I'm in a low carb high protein diet. I'm so ooo happy! I wish u all the best keep going and stay strong even if the scale doesn't move as fast as we want!
-
I am also 7 weeks out, I was stuck for almost 3 weeks then I weighted and 5lbs were gone! It's normal don't worry just keep eating healthy and exercising. I think the exercise is what helped me to get out of that stall! Good luck

I told everybody at work that I had done it. I hate lying and once you start with 1 lie you feel you have yo keep going. I decided to tell them because I am the only one that can decide in my life and I had wanted this surgery for a long time! People will always judge you, but hey if you are happy don't worry about what other would say or think. You can also say you don't want to talk about personal stuff. What ever you decide to do do it because you want to not because you feel pressure and be happy with yourself! Good luck!
