36 I think. I asked at my second followup

@@Katsitsyahawe - welcome to your WLS family!

@@Runner1 - a lot of people have mentioned getting hiccups. I got them but only two or three hiccups and then it stopped. it only happened when I ate and was full

yep!

@@Awjones28 - like lovers they come and go (stalls). stay on plan....off scale

I gagged trying to eat SF popsicles that everyone else seem to be able to eat. the SF hello wasn't much better. popsicles went into trash and the jello I managed to eat the fourth little cup....but no more.

@@lealor - I gagged with liquid calcium too. I just break the petites in half, for calcium.

@@Inner Surfer Girl - great reminder on that bulletin board....Nutrients not calories!

@@glitter eyes - that's inspiring! I think being able to climb up and down ladders at home and squeeze in between the machines here at work without the fear of getting stuck are two things I have enjoyed -84 lbs!

@ - is this surgeon legit? That would be my first question....

@@JoannLz - are you at goal weight?

@@BLERDgirl - WOW! you look great! @@Dub - I am still thinking about the food you posted on here a couple of days ago....makes my stomach growl! I think it is awesome that you both shared your doc decision with her, because everyone doesn't have the same medical needs. The bypass is considered the "gold standard" but for some it may cause problems down the road.... @@mayasmomma - Your surgeon will probably provide his recommendation. I had a choice because I didn't have any other issues and could've done band or sleeve. I probably could've done the bypass, but I wasn't too excited about it like @@BLERDgirl. I almost did the band, because my adult daughter didn't want me to do anything permanent. I liked the idea of the sleeve from my surgical seminar I did going into this process. SOOOOO glad I went sleeve - NO REGRETS!!!!

@@dhrguru - atta girl! "onward and downward" keep that thought in mind....I do the same thing lose 2-3 weeks in a row then may lose a 1lb or gain or stall ....then start losing again....its a journey

@@nomilktoday - excellent! I am trying to get into the "overweight" range (2lbs). Like you, I was thrilled to just be "obese"!!! Now I am looking forward to just being "overweight"

I was told no gummies for a while. chewable were ok.

when I lay down my boobs hide my armpits!

@@Wannytwo I am near Jax, and I am 5 months post. @@cookies_queen is also close and has December date too!

@@PurpleJazz keep us posted and welcome to the family!

@@losing100# it will be here in no time. start preparing now! pre-op diet?

@MrBroussard....wow! keep working it and keep us posted.

I do better on the weekends than at work Monday thru Friday

@@Dub you are killing me....I just ate, but you are making me think about stretching my sleeve

@ _ welcome to the BP family!

my hubby has been very supportive from the initial visit/seminar. he has lost 25 lbs and we are physically doing a lot more together in our new house! he eats better and we stay busy!

@@CanyonBaby Thank God! I saw that title and thought....yeah!!!!!! thanks for sharing your blessing from God.
