In speaking with my Dr I could possibly be at goal at about 175 lbs. I on the other hand would like to get down to 150 lbs. (probably because I'm familiar with myself at that size). I'm having a hard time trying to figure out which should be my goal weight. How did everyone determine theirs? As an FYI, I'm roughly 5'11" and hourglass shaped (not sure if that matters). I've been as low as 140 lbs. although that was in college (before twins). Any suggestions on how to figure out a goal would be good.

Just thought I'd share since I didn't have a clue what my girls would look like after 75lbs lost. I had NO idea how big my girls were - until I lost them. Bra in photo is 42DD. My girl is (all skin, I think) now 38C. It was good for a laugh today as I was cleaning out my closet.

I'm 5 days out and feeling really irritable (I yelled at my dogs for barking, not caring that they are dogs and that is what they do). I think a small part of it is that my surgeon took me off my BC pills to reduce the risks of blood clots. But I've now started my period again, even though I had it a week before surgery. Small things are p*$$ing me off and I just want to scream and throw things. I'm not usually like this and I don't like being such a moody b*+ch. Anyone have any advice on how do deal with being so irritable? Also, does anyone know how to delete a post? I accidentally posted the same reply 4 times on another thread and I can't figure out how to delete th…

Hi this may be tmi, so let me apologize now but this is the ladies room right? My surgery was 6/26/13 and it triggered my period no biggie I was too loaded on anesthesia effects to notice any change....fast forward to a month later and my first "real" post op period and I'm noticing I'm much much more exhausted from it then any period I can recall preop...I've mostly stayed in bed all weekend (which is unusual for me) Do you ladies have any good food suggestions that I could incorporate in the future in the week leading up to and the week of to help increase my energy levels during my time of the month? Vitamin suggestions? What works for you?

I am 2 days out (I have surgery scheduled for Wednesday 7/31/13). Let me give you a little background. I have had my tubes tied in 2010 and a Uterine Ablation in 2012 so I haven't had a period in over a year. Now I am assuming becuase of my diet it has my body in a state of chaos and I have started spoting. I have emailed my doctor, but now I am stressing that they won't be able to do the surgery if I am on my period? Any advice??

It's been 9 days since I was sleeved and my husband is already acting like he has issues with the upcoming weight loss. He expressed to me days before the surgery that he would rather split now rather than to have me become slim and leave him for the first guy that smiles at me and that he is waiting for me to get fully back on my feet before he splits because he doesn't want to get hurt (what kind of simple minded foolishness is that?!). Anywho, I have endured a lot of manipulation and mental abuse over the years from my husband and I feel this is another plight to get me to do what he wants me to do which is to make myself invisible to all other men, and some women, in …

I got my monthly on 6/3 it usually lasts about 4-5 days. I was sleeved on 6/24 and then on Friday 6/28 I got it again. So now I'm feeling crampy it's 7/28 so I guess I can expect to get it around this time. Is it the body adjustment? Did this happen to anybody else?

I really don't know what his problem is and I definitely don't have enough time out of my day to find out. I have enough going on. It seems like there is no interest there anymore. Like I have to ask him for an appointment to have sex. So i don't even ask anymore. That's fine with me because he knows what happen last time someone else found interest and he was not a happy camper. So I advise him to stop and its not even about sex because trust me i can always find my own satisfaction (and it was more satisfying) it's other selfish, rude things and I'm not the one to keep pissing off because you won't like to see the end results. Help!!!

This might be TMI but I'm too embarrassed to call and ask my male doctor. I am 3 1/2 weeks out from my surgery and have lost about 35 lbs. The past week I have had a huge increase in vaginal discharge. It is like the kind you get right before ovulation. Has anyone else experienced this?

Okay so I'm still in planning stages for my VSG. When I first decided I was going to do this the next thought was, who do I tell about this ? or do I not say a word, hop a plane to Mexico, get it done and come home then tell everyone that I'm having "fabulous" results with Weight Watchers. But I REALLY want to share this with people as I'm so excited that my new life will start soon. But as soon as i think about it the reality hits that truthfully not all my friends and family are going to see it quite like I do. Here's what I face. I have a few friends that will smile and say "oh wow" and "how exciting" and offer no resistance. Then they go home and sa…

I am still in the beginning stages of this process.. but I was just thinking. My husband is part of the my weight problem I believe. He is very emotionally abusive and bipolar. He throws the words fat A$$ and fat b!=ch at me in every argument. Oh I didn't mention he is almost 300 pounds himself. Anyway, I have been with him for 20 years and we have 4 beautiful children together, but I really feel like the new me going to want to throw him out with the other 85% of my stomach. I just don't think he realizes how his words hurt not only me, but the kids and I have a feeling once I feel better about me, he's gone. I wanted to know if anybody else had this issue?

I have been working out nearly everyday for over a month now. I decided I want to have the best success after my surgery, this would be best achieved through exercise and eating right. Recently I started stalling on weight loss. I decided it was time to change the exercises up. I asked my husband whom is physically fit to teach me how to properly lift weights. He said he would do so. However, today he become annoyed with me after I asked him twice "what time were we going to the gym". He behaved as if he was getting dressed twice to go, but he would always end up back in bed playing games on the IPAD. This hurt my feelings for I felt he is not taking my commitment to…

I had a Mirena IUD put in the first week of November. Not for birth control but to control my endometriosis. So far, it's doing that spectacularly well. I used to live in constant pain, had pain during sex and it got even worse during/around horrendous cycles. Now I'm living almost completely pain free, the two periods I've had since it was put in were easy and light and sex is fantastic again. But I also noticed that my weight completely stalled out for a bit there. I'm also moving, and our orders were put on hold AFTER we'd left Germany but BEFORE we hit our next assignment, so we're hanging in limbo and it's definitely a stressful time for us. I don't want to b…

I post a lot of stuff on Facebook and a few days ago I posted a pizza dip that I made. Immediately I started getting comments from people I don't really know that well and one I had never met in person (friend of a friend), all telling me that my dip was too high in fat and my diet should be low fat. I told them that my doctor told me count carbs and Protein and not to worry about anything else right now, so this dip was low-carb, high protein and it was fine for me to eat. Then they kept insisting that I need to eat low fat because they knew someone who did and lost weight and someone else knew someone who gained the weight back after lapband surgery because they were…

I am getting scheduled for surg and have a question regarding boobs. LOL, anyway, I am top heavy, 44/46 DDD, wondering if anyone has any tricks to tighten things up as they start going south. In the past I lost 25 pounds on the south beach diet(only to gain back plus 15) but I happened to notice how I lost in the breast area, which worries me they are going to be "2 eggs in a sock tacked to a wall" after I lose a significant amount of weight. Any advice would be welcome- exercises, wraps,(or a good plastic surgeon! ha!)

I have had a hard time since surgery with a stricture and hospital stay last week. Anyway today was my first day back since the EGD. I'm exhausted and Walgreens messed up my meds and is probably going to charge me again for them at another store. Anyway my sister and I just started arguing over no reason really. Then she started to apologize and I threw it back at her! She goes "I'm not mad or anything" and I said I didn't give a crap if she was to which she said something not nice at all. Been crying for a while now- was crying before that anyway so it didn't help. I don't know why I lashed out like that. I'm an emotional mess and I feel like none of them understand. …

At first he was all supportive and into it. Now that surgery is only 10 days away he's gotten really snippy. He told me that I'm so obsessed with this surgery that he's tired of hearing about it and he even went as far to say that I'm being selfish and not putting my family first. He also said I'm neglecting my "duties" as a housewife/mom because I'm so obsessed with surgery. Part of me thinks he's scared and insecure, but when I ask him he denies it and says "if your going to leave then just leave". Maybe that's his ego. We've been together for 5 years, married for 2, and have 2 kids together. We usually have a pretty good relationship too. Anyone else dealing with a …
