Down to 205. I got married Saturday and the week before was trying to just maintain so my dress would fit right. Can't believe I'm 5lbs to onederland Sent from my 5054N using the BariatricPal App -
Me too. Feel your pain. As of yesterday 4 months since surgery. Hair coming out in handfuls. Getting married in a week Saturday hoping it holds that long. After I don't even care. I don't like short hair on me but may chop it off. I can't stand hair floating around. Sent from my 5054N using the BariatricPal App

209 don't think I posted this week yet Sent from my 5054N using the BariatricPal App -
People often ask me what's it like post op. I'm almost 4 months out. My explanation. Have you ever been around a baby when it's being fed? Yep that's me. They eat one bite yay, then the second. If my tummy decided it didn't like the first, even if it did 100x before. You guessed it out it comes. So the story of my new life. Finally able to eat eggs and sausage for a few weeks. The inside of a sausage burrito from McD's. This morning "roo" my pouch says nope I no longer like that. After working a 10 hour shift at one client on my way to a 5 hour client now I just want to go home and hug my specially devoted trash can. Ugg. So I regret my decision, not one bit, but some "roo" cooperation would be nice Sent from my 5054N using the BariatricPal App

Sorry for late reply still 216. Thinking of changing things up a bit. I'm eating around 800 cal. Thinking of uping it and getting to the gym more often. Been walking some but not like I should. Sent from my 5054N using the BariatricPal App -
I measured everything at first and felt the same way. Honestly like I was a failure and it wasn't going to work. I went to introducing solids and bam just like that I could not even eat weighed out portions. I think that liquids are like the sliders and move right through. Makes the first few weeks disappointing, but when you think about it. Sliding through is a good thing at that point because your tummy is still healing. Sent from my 5054N using the BariatricPal App

I eat fast food, a whole lot less than before. Things I think "I want" normally one bite and nope don't want it like before. I never understood picky eaters before. I get it now. It is almost like my throat closes and says nope....not eating it. Sent from my 5054N using the BariatricPal App

You might be a WLS patient when...
Mindy78 replied to Who'sThere's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
Really can it ever be possible that me, myself or I will only be able to eat only a few bites of anything let alone dessert??I am learning to eat Protein and I watch the show " my 600 lb life ", I am paying very close attention to everything they do like what they eat on the 800 calorie diet and no snacking at all. Only three meals a day and that's it.I know it's gonna be a long journey but I have to do this. I'm 4'11" and I weighed 238, I have gotten down to 210 and I just started buying some chicken drumsticks that I can prepare by baking. I usually only eat white meat but it gets too dry for me to eat .I'm still pre op I have gotten all the tests done I only have three more nutritionist classes, may last one is in March, so my surgery will probably be in April or May. I can't wait til I can actually eat something and feel full instead of my crazy overeating of everything. I am a work in progress. It's amazing how little satisfies you. I am in amazement.

Monday I am going to a pastors gathering for 3 days. Oh they love to eat. Lol. Trying to figure out what to pack, just in case there's a majority of things I can't eat.
