    Happy to hear you are recovering, soon you won't even remember the annoying wait and will be watching the numbers on the scale go down!

    Totally frustrated and don't know what to do

    Why wouldn't your considering WLS be viewed as fighting for your family? Your husband sounds unreasonable and tormenting. For many of us being active and going to the gym still wasn't enough to lose an appreciable amount of weight. I wish you luck. Maybe if you keep mentioning the process it will be like the slow drip wearing down the rock.
  3. I should have included that I did not cheat. I figured it was a good time to get used to following my instructions from the surgeon, as I'd be doing that for the rest of my life.
  4. I lost 10 pounds and was on the pre-op diet for two weeks. BMI was 41 or 42?

    Gastric sleeve Dumping

    I tried the ricotta bake (with ricotta) the second day of my pureed stage. I had terrible "foaming" and was so uncomfortable- it lasted hours. I have never tried it again. For the record I hated the pureed stage, something about the textures, and was supposed to be on it for three weeks. I ended up doing the full liquid stage a little longer with a few additions. So glad that stage is over!

    WLS and incontinence

    Had surgery 2/3/2015, have lost 27 pounds and my stress/urge incontinence has already improved. I teased my surgeon that he fixed my bladder at the same time he did my sleeve!

    Just Decide

    I agree with you and the above postings. Once you've made the decision to have WLS it seems like you are catapulted toward your new life and the benefits of weight loss. Best of luck to you, in no time at all you will be on the "loser's bench." A great place to be!

    Loved watching Star Trek- all the different versions of it. I have to agree Spock was one of my favorite characters ( not Kirk). Live long and prosper!
