mytime2shine 229 Posted June 10, 2013 Along with pictures' date=' measure yourself as well! I took my before shots in capri yoga pants and a tank top (don't own a sports bra) and started an Excel spreadsheet on my computer for measurements (i.e. bust, thigh, waist, neck, etc.). I know there will be times the scale may not be moving, but the inches lost will! Definitely excited to have "after" and "during" pictures to show off someday![/quote'] Great idea!! That will def show results!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CCRNonherway 78 Posted June 10, 2013 Before pictures:::: make sure everyone takes before shots!! Trust me!! You will have days that you feel that your not losing' date=' your bad days... Look at that before shot and it will help you remember!! This is my second go around..( so to speak) I've list 36 lbs since my first appt with my doc in dec... The 19th is fast approaching and ill say that I'm more nervous this time around. My biggest fear is to wake from surgery and it could not have been done again for the second time. ( first time was due to a mass on my stomach) so this is all a second chance for me... The surgery saved my life once and now it's time to go again. I have a friend who is having the sleeve in the same day, same doc. We are sleeve buddies! Looking forward to the other side if the sleeve! [/quote'] I took my "before" pics this morning. What an eye opener!!! I am headed to my pre-op appointment shortly and start my pre-op diet tomorrow. I think I will be good this week since I will be traveling alone (for work) with no one to influence me. At least I am hoping so! Wish me luck! 1 DeezJeanz reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cheer Mama 166 Posted June 10, 2013 walk people walk. The gas pain is sooooo intense it's CRAZY! I thought gas pain would just be in the abdomen. nooooooooooooooo For me, it has gone to my neck, on the right side, to make a headache so intence that it is worse than my migranes. It hurts to swallow. It hurts to touch. i'm on incredibly gross tylenol3 every 4 hours.... It doesn't last long enough at all. 1 Museum-Mama reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
