I hope you’re right!! I have a terrible sweet tooth and sometimes I’ll eat a yogurt to avoid the skittles or something else sugar.On 03/29/2019 at 07:59, GreenTealael said:
It may not be that way at all in your case!
You seem to try new things while keeping it very healthy!! I love seeing what you post!FluffyChix, GreenTealael and Orchids&Dragons reacted to this -
I feel like yogurt is filling. I add raspberries and blackberries to mine too. Stays w me until lunchtime. But I’m also 7 mos post op so maybe that won’t be the case the further out I get.

I'm just curious to those with low bmi, can you do a surgery in the us with a 35 bmi no co-morbidities?

No dumping here either.

No I don’t drink any. I was not a big drinker before my surgery so it wasn’t hard not to drink any after. Plus what I liked before was a Coors Light and I don’t do any carbonation at all since my surgery. I don’t miss it. To me it’s an awesome trade off. I’ll take losing a whole human being off of me to occasionally having a alcoholic beverage.

Surgery was at 1pm. Stayed overnight and went home before noon the next day. I didn’t have any pain. Just sore. Welcome to the group!

Except sweets....still a weakness I’m working on.On 03/27/2019 at 07:18, Frustr8 said:
It feels good when Mystery meat is History, when Fast food holds no appeal, and sweets are no treat. Then the New cocepts and New Habits can work for you and you find out this works and is quite doable. And then the rest of your life becomes the best of your life. I may even invest in a t-shirt that says just that!

Bc when you get liposuction it’s not from inside your abdomen. The fat inside there has a lot of vessels. When they Lipo they are doing subcutaneous...they do not lipo inside the abdomen.On 03/27/2019 at 11:07, Orchids&Dragons said: -

I’m doing the sleeve. Did you have the sleeve as well? Just finished packing my overnight bag and alarm set for 3 but I’m sure I won’t need it. They gave me this stuff I believe I’m supposed use to clean the area of the stomach

Are you doing sleeve or bypass?

BTW easy recovery. I was nauseous but I get sick from anesthesia. Little gas pain from CO2 they use to inflate your abdomen. But that clears up on its own. Recovery was a breeze!

Good Luck tomorrow!! Let us know when you can how you’re doing!!

Don’t scratch at them. Put lotion on them. It’s the healing process that’s making it itch.

60 pounds is great!!! Don’t discount that. It didn’t all come on in 8 mos so give it time to come back off. Now that you’re measuring, slowing down while eating etc maybe you will start to see more results in the scale. Meanwhile keep forging ahead. YOU CAN DO IT!😊👍🏻On 03/25/2019 at 07:09, thatch said:
HI folks, I'm a little over 8 months out from my surgery and lately I feel as if I've failed. I've only lost 36 pounds since my surgery (just over 60 pounds from my heaviest weight last year) and my surgeon is concerned. Things I'm trying:
Drinking lots more Water -- I was stuck on 60 to 64 ounces for months but now I shoot for 80
Measuring, measuring, measuring -- I was just eyeballing before and after actually MEASURING what I was eating it was eye opening to say the least 😕
Eating like I just had surgery -- tiny bites, counting my chews, putting my fork/spoon down between bites and taking a long time to eat -- I've always been a speedy eater and it's been a hard habit to break
Adding a HIIT day to my workouts -- I lift 2 days a week and walk at least 45 minutes every day -- doctor wants me to do more cardio but I HATE cardio
Tracking every damn thing I put in my mouth -- even those Trader Joe's samples
Getting at least 90 grams of Protein daily
What piece of the puzzle am I missing? Any words of wisdom from you vets? I'm trying not to compare myself to some members' AMAZING weight loss progress, but it's hard not to get down about it.

If you ask the restaurant for modifications on your meal most will. If you are in the soft stage then order stuff like soup/mashed pot.
Room service has eggs etc. you can do it!!!😊👍🏻 -
Wow! Congrats!! I’m 7 mos out and I will def need a lift and implants. I’m trying to wait until I get to my goal weight and keep it off for a year but my girls are SO SAD!! I’m not sure I can make it that long. Plus it’s very expensive and insurance won’t pay for cosmetic surgery. 😩On 12/18/2018 at 02:18, logicwand said:
My weight finally stabilized around 145 (original goal weight), so I went forward with surgery for a breast lift with implants (Dr. Ciaravino in Houston is amazing). I lost 72 lbs total after the sleeve but added approximately 1.5 lbs of implants (Mentor MemoryGel Smooth Round High Profile 350cc). I cry when I see these photos side by side. I got sleeved on 2/28/2018 and got these boobs 9 months later on 11/30/2018. What a year.

It’s good to get away from coke type drinks...esp since they hold zero value to all of us on this journey. It’s ultimately up to you and what your surgeon and team recommended but I’ve gotten away from all carbonated products about two years before I had surgery and now I’m 7 mos post op and still haven’t had any and I don’t plan to. I know it’s hard. Good luck to you

Omg!! Thank you!! I have the worst sweet tooth that did NOT go away with sleeve surgery!! (Some people say they lose their sweet tooth after-I did not unfortunately)On 03/24/2019 at 09:46, GreenTealael said:
