    You look so happy and I hope this doesn't offend you but so much younger...I say that with endearment because as I look at side by side of myself I said wow I looked older than I was at 32

    Hello ladies!!! I've been MIA but I always have you in my thoughts I always wonder how you guys are doing and progressing I am so far 84 pounds down...there are some days I can't believe this is still me! My hair definitely fell off in clumps so I went for the big chop and went very short and absolutely love it. Had some issues with blood and Iron loss needed transfusions but things are looking up...have you guys had issues accepting what you see in the mirror? I feel like I still see my post op self at times...I hope this doesn't sound weird but I missed u all so much xoxo Sent from my iPhone using BariatricPal

    What surgery did you have I get that because of the duodenal Switch (sips). It's basically any fat your body isn't absorbing comes right out. If you're eating anything high in fat in combo with not drinking much that'll do it to you. I have learned to never trust a fart lol...I normally wear a panty liner in the back just in case.

    Hey ladies just an update almost 40 pounds down I'm very happy I'm finally able to hold down liquids fairly well...the issue seemed to be whey Protein actually (either the whey is too heavy or I have developed a slight lactaid intolerance) "sleevette" (my sleeve name) seems to be very picky so I'm trying hemp protein and other forms such as chicken and I seem to be doing well. I got the okay to go back to work on the 25th and I can go to gym as long as I take it easy and listen to my body...looking forward to returning to my normal routine. I'm also learning to look at food as a source of nourishment and not something to enjoy and as weird as that sounds it helps me to not over indulge and try to scarf down food or eat too fast which was very unpleasant. I hope you ladies are doing very well and the future holds nothing but positivity for us Sent from my iPhone using BariatricPal
