As long as she accessorizes with a scarf that has a diet soda on it, I guess it is ok.

Follow your surgeon's diet plan. It is for your own good. Yeah a pre-op diet kind of sucks, but there will be plenty of time for guacamole, in moderation, later.

I see the difference, you wear glasses now. Only kidding. Your excess weight loss results are amazing and very inspirational!

In a "Brokeback Mountain" kind of way? None of that action for me, thank you for offering, though. Hetero coffee fiend, here. That action is not for me either. No offer to you except to maybe buy you a cup of coffee. Enjoy this virtual cup of coffee!

Excellent, you recognized your eating habits are going back to the old ways. Get back to basics, you must have been successful in losing weight so far. Measure, make healthier food choices, drink enough Water, eat enough Protein, exercise and journal. You can do it!

(Actually, it is 82.3482% )

Follow your surgeon's plans. Can you have decaf? Maybe they can let you wean in with half-caf (mix decaf and caffeinated); but ask them first. Also keep in mind that coffee can be acidic, so even though it is decaf, it could possibly irritate your stomach in larger quantities. 6 weeks goes just like that. Only 42 days, only 1008 Hours, only 60,480 Minutes, only 3,628,800 Seconds from the surgery until you can have regular coffee again.

"...Tho it may not be as long a list as you'd expect..." That's what she said. (ba-dum tish)

Thank you for sharing this, I needed the laugh.

This isn't about motorcycles or bicycles, but instead about menstrual cycles? I'm outta' here! (Sorry, that "Y" chromosome makes me unqualified to answer).

Yes. Dense protein.

Maybe they love you and support your WLS decision so much that they did not want to tempt you with a cake, so your excess weight loss will be very successful.

I thought you like sausages instead? (A reference to a different post. I almost had a cigarette after reading that series of posts and I don't even smoke!) Yup. With girth. Was that a typo? Did you mean "girth", as in "with a large diameter", or "Garth", as in "you enjoy eating them with a certain country singer"?

We get to meet such lovely people! Maybe this should be posted next to some people's computers?

You probably misunderstood what they said. There can be some slight stretching to the sleeve, but the area that remains is not very stretchable. Humans aren't starfish, things cut off don't grow back, otherwise my foreskin would have grown back.

Agreed; no.

Possibly due to what you mentioned. I wonder if most of the people that regain, do so because of old habits creeping back in. That is eating more high caloric food, eating a little more than they should at a meal, eating/snacking on too many slider foods, not exercising, etc..

For you. I would take his sexy sister, who is wearing a grass skirt and a coconut shell bra, rubbing my......shoulders, if I wasn't married.

I don't believe you were ever a "2". Everyone has an opinion and a (bleep)hole, sometimes the opinions come out of the latter one. There are a lot of emotions during weight loss, some are hormonal, some are due to years of being in lament over one's obesity and lower self-esteem, among other emotional issues. Maybe you can seek some counseling to deal with these emotions? Perhaps you can turn those tears into tears of joy on how you overcame obesity, your improved health and all of the NSVs you are experiencing. I am a married heterosexual, so I am not hitting on you, but you do look good and earned it through your hard work to lose your excess body weight.

....And eating it while relaxing on a Polynesian beach at sunset; followed up by a tropical drink with one of those colorful bamboo umbrellas in it -that is only after waiting 30-45 minutes after eating. But for now, some avocado or "guac" sounds like a good 2nd choice.

More like: Bloody Mary! Bloody Mary! Bloody Mary! (Not the urban legend myth that could be summoned, but reading all of this makes me want to drink 3 Bloody Mary's )

There will be loose skin in areas, so I guess it depends where you have it done. Make sure you do your research. You wouldn't want this: To end up looking something like this:
