UGH!!! I wish I could do this!!!.. I was so much better.. only weighing myself every 3 or 4 days... I've relapsed... Hi, my name is Tina and I'm a 3 times a day weigher!!! HELP!!!

I only have one raise scar.. It's the one by my belly button... It itches like crazy sometimes!!!

I had a Mirena before surgery... (my cycles have always been very heavy and irregular due to PCOS)... got the Mirena taken out Dec. 5... Surgery Dec 19... Still no cycle... Headed to my gyn next week... I'm not complaining... I just know what lies in wait when it happens!!!

It happens!!! I would suggest you take your measurements as well... I wasn't dropping pounds, but the inches were flying off!! Stay encouraged and keep following the plan!!

Thanks Lissa.. Oh wow!!! MoogleQueen, I understand!!! GEEZ!!! I'm smaller than I've been in over 12 years!!!... It's something...

WOW... I wish you all the best.. take it easy.. you will be back in the saddle shortly!!! Just try to hydrate and rest during this time!!!

BK Mama, I live in Chicago.. feel free to add me and msg me... I hope everyone is doing great today... my MFP username is tinalsteele My hair has finally stopped thinning.. Thank God!! Congrats on all of your successes!!!

LOL!!! Disneyteach... Thanks for sharing that!!! I needed a good laugh and you gave it to me!!!! WOW... do you feel like you're being followed by a smelly chicken because you ate its fingers??!!! HA!!

Awesome job!!!.. yeah, I had a "bone head, big girl moment" about 20 minutes ago... Ate creme brulee and Sleevina got all irritable and upset.. Girl, wouldn't calm down until I got it up and out!!! I hate throwing up!! UGH!!!!.. But, she's feeling a little better.. I'm only going to give her liquids for the rest of the day as my way of apologizing...

I almost chickened out... I'm glad I didn't... One of the best decisions I've ever made...

I understand totally!!! I'm trying to budget and finish paying off bills and stuff.. I started preparing meals I can recycle so to speak.. If I can't buy fresh fruits and veggies, I get frozen (mainly due to waste)... I make casseroles, prepare chicken in my crockpot and use it for omelets, Soups, salads, etc. And of course it helps that I don't eat nearly as much as I used to.. Have you tried some of the discount grocers in your area?? I love Aldi.. they have good products.. I also clip coupons sometimes....

I need to get one ASAP... I'm allergic to Penicillin, iodine and shellfish... I wonder would just putting VSG patient suffice???

I take gummies... I purchased 3 kinds of chewables and I can't!!! I'd rather eat... well, I can't even think of anything that's worse!!!!!

Dorrie, it's funny how different our bodies are!! When I eat less than 900 calories, I don't lose a POUND!! Lately I've been trying my hardest to get in at least 1000 calories daily and I've been losing at least .5 per day...

Check w/ your insurance company or surgeon's office.. Most ins use your starting BMI and won't penalize you for losing weight...

Congrats!! Please give an update when you can!! Blessings!!!

I got you!! I'll tell you everyday how great and awesome you are!! Well, that's if I can move tomorrow!!! Worked out to night...gotta go back in 5 hours!!! LoL..

Great job!!!.. I'm 324 and wear a 22/24.... I can't wait to get out of the 300s.. I'm ramping up my workouts this week.. Thanks for the encouragement...

So, I'm in the midst of a possible career change.. All brought on by the confidence I gained by deciding to get sleeved... I love that I'm losing weight... but more than that, I think that believing that I deserve a great life, free of physical and emotional pain and suffering caused by obesity has totally transformed my life in every area... What about you??

The only hindrance to any person's success is that person's doubt!

For those who take the Vita Fusion... you take 4 a day?? The twice the rec. serving right?? Is there a reason you take so many??? I take them as well and I just do the two per day... Am I not taking enough???

Let me explain the vanity thing for me... I'm vain... even when I was a larger... I'm not obnoxious.. I just know I'm the bomb... no matter what size.. I may not be a person's preference, but that doesn't diminish my "the bombness" or the love of my many fans!! LOL..
