Thank you. I feel great! I hit the gym 6 days a week. A lot of hard work but feeling this good is worth it.

Congrats on your weight loss too. You should be proud as well. Keep at it. More will come off! :)

I keep trying the shakes but they seem to sweet tasting. I hold my nose and drink the Protein Shots. Lol I did start my Fluid meds again and I have been going to the restroom every 20min. Got to weigh in the morning so I will keep everyone posted. Thanks so much for the support.

Wondering if anyone else has become sensitive to milk products since having the RNY? I've become quite sinus-y with it, I used to react this way with wheat, but haven't eaten wheat now for several years. I'm just very curious? I tend to use cheese, or evaporated milk etc. in each meal, so it's becoming a bit of a hassle.

wanted to check in with everyone, went back to work full time school full time, dealing with medical.issues, and trying to make this work is really hard, so not much time to log in multiple sites, but I'm so glad you guys are successful, losing weight and still helping each other I do mfp more though I have decided that I am cutting some people out because instead of asking why I do certain things or actually reading my journal correctly they rather "make up their own ideas" which is a shame we each have our own journey own fight man I struggle for every freaking pound my situation to begin with was diffrent and I think thats why people stop logging in, its easier to just stop logging in than to just say hey maybe thats not correct? I hope you all have a wonderful blessed day, whatever your journey is may you find the guidance your looking for, much peace and love , happy loosing

Have you tried Syntrax Nectar? I've tried the fuzzy navel and the Roadside Lemonade. I find the roadside lemonade a little sweet. I'll add 1 pkg of Crystal Light to it to make it taste better. Love the fuzzy navel though.

I also had the Protein issue and couldn't stand shakes. I tried the Syntrax Nectar the others are talking about in the fuzzy navel flavor. I mix it with 4oz Water, tastes like slightly watered down Sunny D to me. :)

Ok has anyone at all had chest pains? Mostly like shooting pains in your breast. I dont know if its a heart thing or i have strained something or what. But its right in my boobs mostly the left one. Through nipple to back. Been off and on for a week. Started when i was playing my Wii. I rest its there no problems when i sleep then when i wake up there again. Anyone have problems like this? Doesnt hurt to breathe. Or take deep breaths.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
