Question about being "finished" with weight loss
caligul replied to kat77's topic in Weight Loss Surgery Success Stories
Omg....I've been really trying to figure out how to slow down my weight loss. .I'm almost 3 months post-op. ..48 lbs to goal. ...I have lost 83lbs...from HW ..and 50 lbs since surgery. ...I love working out. . Trying to add more calories. . But just not hungry. .I know I'm crazy for wanting to slow down "rapid weight loss surgery"...especially before hitting goal and a year post op!!! -
OMG!!!! I can't believe my eyes. .I'm sooo sorry this happened to you. .. definitely write a letter to the director. .. they may need to implement having nurses who have gone through WLS.... clearly that nurse doesn't understand nor empathize what you just went through.

Not hungry ever, always thisty

As you heal you will be able to drink more....you're still at the stage where you just have to sip...sip...sip....set a timer....to sip every 5 min or so.... -

Me too...I love it. .I'm on Week 4! -
So clearly I must have had an attachment to my FUPA....now that I'm down 80 lbs....I feel like I should still be shopping in the plus size section...but all their pants have that extra FUPA space I don't need...and I look super crazy wearing these pants with all this extra FUPA space....I guess I must be scared to go to the non plus size section...but I think its finally time to detach myself from the FUPA pants!

What Do You Wish Your Surgery “Package” Had Included?
caligul replied to Alex Brecher's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
I wish I knew ahead of time RNY is a very "loud" surgery. ..meaning when I drink anything. .an entire room can hear it going through my entire digestive system! -
So apparently my husband is more excited than me about my 80lb weight loss. ... everytime I turn around he's picking me up and throwing me over his shoulders! !! Once upon a time I could use my weight when playing around with him. ... not anymore. ..I'm going to have to really do some major strength training! ~HW 321 lbs ~Surgery Date: 6/2/15 ~SW:288 lbs ~CW 241 lbs
