Recommended Posts

Like getting on a bus and not seeing the look of dread on peoples face at the thought i might sit next too them..

Like sitting on a bus and not have my body "spill out" of my seat onto the person next to me.

Like going in to a clothes shop and not having little or no choice ... Or having to ask if they have it in a bigger size ( even in a "big girls" shop. )

Like eating out and not finishing everything on my plate... And the plate of my husband/ kids...

Like getting a hug from my kids and they ate so so happy that their arms now go all the way around me!! ...

What small things make u happy?

I love your post! Congrats on you successful weight loss and so happy your life has gotten easier! My surgery date was March 5,13 and have to say I have been on so much pain in my incisions I lost track of my goals to a healthier life. Your post was a wonderful reminder. Btw--so far loving the feeling of my double chin getting smaller. It's noticeable when I lay down with my IPad and type. God bless!

I am a RN in a hospital and I have to say losing weight has given me more energy for my 12 hours shifts. I feel better about myself and am way more positive.

I also love that I don't obsess about food anymore and I eat to live not live to eat. There are so many positives from this surgery...

When I shower now I can wrap the towel all the way around me.

I had this conversation with myself earlier...there are times I forget to eat until I get a bit queasy or shaky. I NEVER dreamt I'd ever be someone that could forget to eat!!!!

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
