Silly question...has anyone attempted to put a taco in the blender? That was one of my first thoughts before I got sleeved but didn't try to do it. Yet.

Lancaster Pennsylvania

Millersville. Lancaster county. Was sleeved 2/29/16.

My pcp was awesome. When I mentioned wsl to her, she said does your insurance cover it? It does. Her answer: *bleep* yeah you should do it. What are we waiting for??? She got me moving that same day. That's why I think she's the best.

I was sleeved 4 weeks ago. I have been obese/morbidly obese my entire life. Even as a child I was huge. I would like to hear from others who were never a "normal" size before surgery and are now (or are no longer in the obese category). How does it feel? How has your mindset changed? Has anything changed in your life in general? I get butterflies when I think I may someday be able to shop and not go to the plus size section. I just want to hear some stories for more inspiration!

Hi. I'm 3 days out and trying to figure out how I'm supposed to fit 64oz in a day. The gas isn't too bad. I keep dreaming about Popeyes and little Caesars and fried chicken and spaghetti. It's very odd. Not using pain meds aside from Tylenol. Overall surprised that I'm not in excruciating pain. And yes my tummy has lots of things to say! But I haven't figured out what it's saying just yet...

Got home from surgery yesterday. You will do great! Easy peasy!!

Prayers headed ur way! Good luck. U will do great! Btw ur handsome.

So how did it go y'all? Here I am in pa feeling good aside from some gas in my chest n back but it's bearable. Been walking lots. Accidentally swallowed an ice chip earlier....OWWIE!!!!!!! Very ready to be allowed to sip sip sip!!! Hope everybody's surgeries went well today!

Laura! Don't go to work lol. Well if anything changes you know where I will be. Where are you with your program? N is it 3 month or 6 month?

Hi Lancaster folks! I am planning on going to the group meeting next Thursday. Anyone else going and we can all sit together?

Wanted to see who all is here from pa?

I recently attended a seminar and my first consult is 10/30. My insurance covers 100% after a small deductible (yay!). The program is 3 months long. I feel very fortunate. But what I would like to know from everyone out there is how many of u have NEVER been a "normal" weight? I have been huge since I was about 5 years old. I don't even want to be "skinny". I want to be a normal average person whose size starts with a 1 instead of almost a 3. (That's what I consider average. Others may not... Not trying to offend anyone). I just don't know what it's like to be able to go shopping in a store at the mall and actually be able to buy something from there. I don't know what's it's like to look in the mirror and not want to scream. Or to not have to walk sideways down the airplane aisles while people give the "oh god please don't have the seat next to me" look. I love to read people's life stories and am enjoying this forum extremely. I just would like to know how everyone feels/is feeling as their sizes are changing and has anyone been at their healthiest they can remember in their lives? And I'm very sorry this is very long...
