Thanks guys

you look so good! keep up the good work

One month before my preop diet I went on a 7 day cruise...I remember my boyfriend and I eating so much that by dinner time he was too full to eat. He said he was skipping dinner and I freaked out! I haddd to have dinner!!!! (even though I wasnt even hungry) we faught and I ended up going to the buffet by myself lol...then ofcourse we ate pizza and Cookies later that night, I was just addicted to food...luckily for me I went to the gym on the cruise and tried to eat in small portions at times(therefore I had only gained 4 pounds) when I came back home from the cruise, I needed more food funerals...I ate big macs for no reason, pizza, french fries, oreos....I remember eating the whole carton of chineese food all by myself, and I mean all of it! I literally forced myself to consume it all. I had a bad stomache ache and just remember feeling really depressed as hell. Damn I remember that day like it was yesterday....Anyways long story short I started my liquid diet 1 week early because of my food funeral lol I didnt want my doctor to notice that I gained weight! So I did 3 weeks of liquids...I lost the 4 pounds and some more (prob like 16 pounds or so) Now I am almost 7 months post op! Since the cruise until today, I have lost 80 pounds! I do not think of food, I do not care for food the way I use to...I dont really like eating all that much...I just wanna see my body get sexier...It takes time but within a few months ur mind changes along with ur new body...U have the mentality of a healthy person. All you wanna do is excersize, feel fit and light....You will be amazed TRUST ME

wow thats awsome!

Yes I have. It works for that day, like if your going out and would like to wear a sexy dress, it takes off a few inches and makes your skin feel soo soft, but its not permament. I heard its good to do body wraps every few weeks to help tighten skin. But unfortunantly I wouldnt kno if thats 100% true because I only did it once lol its too expensive for me to do it every 3 weeks..its cost like $85 for 1 treatment

wow you looks great!! Congrats... May I ask what your starting weight was and how much you weigh now

WLS is not easy, I failed with the lap band (lost 60lbs then gained it all back) but was not goin to fail with the sleeve. With the lapband I ate whatever I wanted or was too tight to eat much and would eat slider foods such as cookies and other junk....It is hard, I still find myself cheating with the sleeve but I always know when to get back up! Dont ever give up, the only person that can help you is you. And it takes more then just 1 day. First week is the hardest and then it becomes easy. Give yourself a week and see how well you can do. But you have to start now, dont keep thinking "tomorrow" as I have always been the one to do that! So far with my sleeve I have lost about 80 pounds...I am super happy and im learning how to utilize my tool...You need to still remember that you still do have a tool, this is what you paid for!

wow awsome! we were sleeved on the same day!!!!

congrats! you look very good I kno u feel great

awsome! I cant wait either, I atually started 2 weeks ago, gave my mom and my aunt a few size 3x and a few 2x that were too big! I am now a 1x and will slowly transistion to XL! Cant wait! Congrats to you

you can stop by Ihop and get a side of eggs....or carry a protein shake with you....but when I find myself at McDonalds, I get 4 piece chicken nuggets. I know its not the best choice but it works for me!

Premiere protein shake from costco is great!! I prefer chocolate over vanilla...check with your doctor to see when you can start drinking protein shakes!

Aww thanks so much for all of ur responses! Each and every reply is greatly appreciated. I believe that I myself have an issue. My issue is letting go of him bc I'm comfortable...just like how I was comfortable being big and hiding in clothes...as I lost weight, I had a hard time adjusting to people looking at my body...I'm getting use to it now, but at times it is still wierd...I believe that it's time for me to enjoy life without me n him being enemies...I want to go out and have fun before I have kids...Im not looking for a boyfriend, im just looking to be appreciated, and to be happy...once again thanks so much

thanks...I may give him 1 more chance, then if that dont work then oh well..ill even suggest counseling again...n then I wont try anymore...cuz u cant change anyone Thanks guys!

I have felt like that with all of my exes! I think I will be really happy to move on, just need the strength to do so

thank u vsgaddict, it does feel like abuse, thats not good crosseyedtango, I guess I care so much for his family, as we have become real close...but at the end, if its not meant to be then oh well..maybe we will just be friends...and yes I am aware that the weight loss is not the issues, its deeper than that...He has always been the issue, we argue for dumb stuff..but now im just getting annoyed that hes pointing the finger and blamming it on me changing from weight loss...wow smh I do know that I can do better, people have always said that even when I was bigger...I think I have an issue letting him go, hes my comfort in a way..Hes my best friend, I share everything with him...Im very confused...it will take a while for me to figure out what im gonna do...thank you guys for all your comments, I do feel better

Thanks, but he's not going with me, he never does... I guess well see how this plays out

I swear to you I brought up counseling tonight! I really do care and really want to make it work. But his response was "well I dont need counseling, If I was the problem then yeah, but im not the problem"...so I kindly said u kno what, yes Im the problem and I would love to go to counseling with you, because I think it will help!...andddd I dont think he gets it...I swear I wanted to slap him silly but at the same time I was trying to be serious as Im trying to put in every effort to save this so called relationship that probably isnt worth saving..the more I think about it the more I wanna smack myself lmao but u kno, I just wanna make sure I've tried everything, dont want any regrets...weight loss is not the issue, hes making it seem like it is

lol he does try to say things like that to make me feel guilty. I guess thats one of the main reasons why I dont want to break up with him, because people are going to think that I broke up with him bc im smaller now...and I shouldnt care about what others say, but for some reason, it does bother me..I guess I do care what others think?
