  5. Wow! That must feel good. Time to change your avatar the new YOU :-) SW:305 CW:212 Sleeved 01.30.17
  6. Typical NYC hospital that works like a slaughterhouse. You're just a number. I had to wait in recovery like 10 hours because there was no bed available :-( SW:305 CW:212 Sleeved 01.30.17
  7. I also had my surgery in Mount Sinai. It's a chicken factory, but the doctor was great. Had Dr. Jacob. SW:305 CW:212 Sleeved 01.30.17

    Why can't we keep it off naturally?

    I tried doing it on my own, but the issue comes with the stalls where you get depressed and you lose faith. With WLS surgery nothing will help you being depressed when you get stalled, you just can't eat, so after a couple weeks you start losing again. Or like now I'm losing 1-2 pounds per week, I would be very upset if I'm holding back food and I see only 1-2 lbs. coming off. With WLS you can be upset as a many times as you like, it won't help you. You just can't eat.... SW:305 CW:212 Sleeved 01.30.17

    No restriction?

    Liquid or jello is not an issue. Try eating something solid and you'll be restricted quickly. SW:305 CW:214 Sleeved 01.30.17

    HELP =[

    No worries. I started eating popcorn at 6 weeks. The only issue is that it slides down easily. SW:305 CW:214 Sleeved 01.30.17

    Stall at 8 months WTH

    I eat 1300-1500 calories per day and I lose in average 1-2 Lbs. per week. I am happy with the results. I'm also working out twice per week for one hour each. SW:305 CW:214 Sleeved 01.30.17
