WOW Meg... I'm so proud of you!!! As far as your co-worker... You handled her w/ class... She woudn't have been so fortunate w/ me... I'm gonna try and be more like you!! LOL.. You've done an amazing job!!!!

WOW!!! I'm so proud of you!! You are doing and have done an AMAZING job!!!!

What you are feeling is normal... I felt the same way!!! But, after being sleeved for 3 months, down over 50 pounds (including pre-op), down 3 sizes and able to do things I haven't done in over 2 years... It's so worth it!! .. Please continue to utilize the boards and read posts from others... I've had few complications.. (acid reflux)... but it's being handled w/ medication.. I don't regret a thing... I'm sure you won't either... Blessings!!!

Go Candance! You look AMAZING!!!!

Awesome job!!!

3 months post op.. I had tilapia w/ brocolli and brown rice...

Amen Time!!!.. You are doing great!!!

Congrats!!!

Water weight isn't like 'fat' though... A person can retain and/or lose upwards of 5 lbs in 1 day....

Yep, I had to have a scope before my surgeon agreed to sleeve me.. They give you good drugs, so you'll be fine!! LOL

Yeah!!! Congrats!! By this time tomorrow, you will be sitting on the Loser's Bench with me!!!! I'm so excited for you!!

I guess I need to try it again.. I tried the fuzzy navel and I thought I was drinking poison!!!

Hey Guys, Let's not diminish half of a pound or a quarter of an inch we've lost!!! We have made a decision to embark upon a lifelong journey to health and wellness!!! So, each step, each pound, each inch is important enough to Celebrate... Even if you gained... you were given fluids in the hospital, you had trauma to your cells, ... I could go on... but I'll stop!! LOL Congratulation!! And celebrate your successes!!!

Yep!!!.. High sodium intakes makes me retain Water... like, 2-5 lbs... That's huge for me because I'm losing a little slowly... And my blood pressure has been elevated since surgery... so, my nurse prac wants to me watch my sodium intake more closely.. I hope I can get a handle on it.. I definitely don't want to take pills for my BP any longer than I have to..

You look wonderful!!!! Congrats!

I'm sure some people have probably wanted to comment or something, but have not.. I, too pursued VSG due to medical reasons.. I messed my back up some years ago after a fall.. it was either back surgery or lose weight...

I do the regular... Sam's or Costco

I can drink Premier Protein and Muscle Milk.. but no other SF drinks... I was tolerating Crystal Light early on, but not anymore... Stevia caused me to have severe allergic reaction.. so... I understand... I hope things work out for you...

Awesome!! Have you tried roasted curry cauliflower??!!!! OMG!!! It's delicious... Either sprinkle or lightly toss in curry and a little oil and roast....
