    Glad to hear MollyF22. Everyday gets better! My first two days were very rough too. Actually I told my Dr the pain was right up there with the 5 back surgeries I've had!

    No idk what UC is. What's worrying me now is I'm almost my gw and barely can eat or hold anything down still. I sure don't wanna go much smaller than 130. I look sickly at a smaller weight. But I'm sure it will be ok

    You can do it! I had the 6 months too. It seems like a lifetime but passes quicker than you think. I hated the idea of waiting but I learned so much! I graduated with Tim Wheeler so I didn't go to him. He's good too I hear!

    I've been really lucky it's came off easily. Still losing too. When I look at myself now I don't feel badly abt myself. I tried on a pair of pants over the weekend from before surgery and got both legs in one! From a 16 to so far an 8! Actually kinda worried I won't stop losing when I hit my goal. Never thought I'd worry about that! But I'm sure I'll level out. Very lucky I have only a little belly flab that can be tightened with exercise. Almost 50 and I was worried it would be awfully saggy! Lol. Loving my sleeve for sure!!

    Good luck!! You're almost there! Yeah that soap itched me to death.. I also couldn't have my pet in my clean sheets. Strange! Had a lot of surgery and never had to do that. See you on the losers bench!

    Congratulations to you!!! I bet you feel fabulous!!! How was surgery day for you and al the healing? How long were you off work? So great to hear your great success! surgery day was very painful. But I walked walked walked to help and it's the only thing that will. I'm disabled from 5 back surgeries so I wasn't off work. But I felt pretty "back to normal " after abt 4 days. Still can't hardly eat more than 4 bites of anything. Meat I've found is not my friend. Makes me sick.
