Searching for the group:)

We could also do a group on meetup Edit: didn't know you need to pay for a meetup group

Can i join that group so people on my fb can't see that i joined

@@cindash I wouldn't mind that i would just worry that people on my fb would see me on that group and i don't want everyone to know

70 pounds is great!! I've definately had days when I've felt down. You can keep going. Just go back to your diet at you'll do great.

where in Central Jersey are you? I'm in middlesex county

I'm sorry to keep talking about this, but even if nobody answers I don't have a lot of friends to talk to and it helps to get it out So I've posted before that I'm getting divorced. Recently my husband told me that a big part of the reason for him was that we were sexually incompatible (why didn't he say anything years ago?) One of the things for me was that some of the things he wanted to do I was uncomfortable with but I tried..some of the things I just didn't like or didn't feel good. Recently he started saying things like "well most people like this" or "normal people enjoy this". No matter how many times I would say "well I'm not 'most people' i'm me" he never got it and kept pushing. Fast forward a little bit and I found out that he was talking to a friend of his often about sexy time...and this friend...well she is a topless burlesque dancer, has a husband but sleeps around with tons of other guys and has been pushing him to date one of the other girls they are friends with. I have nothing against the way she lives her life, but I think it's fair to say that her idea of what is "average" sexual "normal" probably isn't what most people would agree with. I mentioned that to him and he didn't understand at all what I meant last night he also told me that he had invited this girl that he likes over for dinner and was going to cook for her. He also didn't understand when I told him that sounded like a date...and he told me he didn't want to think about until the divorce was final. Also he didn't understand how another friend that he's known since he was a kid made him dinner and that wasn't a date, but cooking for the girl he has a crush on is a date. I've also been finding it so hurtful that this girl he wants to date has some of the same habits and characteristics that he said he hated in me

We should arrange a get together

Hey I'm new to this thread but also in the central jersey area. Is there some kind of meetup planned? I would love to make some new friends in the area who know what im going through

Check Meetup. They have lots of groups. There might be something in your area

My bariatric center had a form for me to sign that they would handle any appeals. Ask your surgeon if they will contact the insurance company for you

Ask your surgeon There will be at least a blood and probably urine test

Well you need something to wear while you're loosing.

I had the same issue with thanksgiving. I was sleevee in september and worried about thanksgiving foods. But i still enjoyed myself. The menu was not changed for me and most people there didnt know i was sleeved. I had a little bit of potatoes a small pieces of turkey and then latr a small piece of cake. It was great Some tips...have gum with you. Eat a little then pop some minty gum in your mouth. When you are done eating put your napkin on your plate.

Hey im in NJ too! You won't need much for the hospital they will give you everything you need. But i would recommend bringing some very loose comfy clothes for the ride home. A pillow for the ride home to preas against your tummmy...this helps if you hit any bumps. Bring some slip on shoes. This will help when you are walking...and make sure you walk

In the beginning most people drop weight very fast. I was dropping more than a pound a day. For referrence my sleeve was sept 2nd and as of yesterday i have lost over 150 lbs

Well You said you're not measuring, not taking small bites, and eating fast. That's probably your answer right there. I know everyone's program is different but your program probably said to eat slowly, take small bites, and to chew chew chew your food. Why don't you try actually doing that and see if it helps

At only two weeks your eating solids and big bites?

To be honesy the liquid diet is tough. For me i didnt have pain but juat generally didnt feel well so for the first few days i had no problem just sipping my Water. Then because it was warm i was very thirsyy and the tiny sips were doing nothing to quench my thirst and it was hard not to gulp. I was also surprised at how much i missed chewing But now 6 months and 150 lbs later it was totally worth it. You can do it. Once you see the weigh t coming off you will be motivated. You can do it
