I've talked to him a bit. He said some do so I am very hopeful! Thanks!

Congratulations!!! Technically due to my weight and height ratio, I am obese but I am not morbidly obese and I will take that any day.

Congratulations.

My son took mine recently. That's the good part of it, the bad part, I was slumped in the recliner, sound asleep and didn't have,my dentures in. So,although I could pass for 45-50, in this one I look every one of my years and more. Sent from my VS880PP using BariatricPal mobile app

Congrats!!! That's the thing that is IMPOSSIBLE for us to understand as normies before surgery! We simply can't compute a situation where we can cook normally for our fams and feel ambivalence about eating or tasting it! You know? I grilled a t-bone for Mr. F. last night and made smashed roasted cauliflower and sliced heirloom tomatoes and avos for him. He had a cab and this forking gorgeous meal and I was like, "Meh...that's a crap ton of food dude! Try not to eat it all at one sitting!" LOL. Then I had 1/4c of smashed roasted cauli, 1/2 sauteed chicken tender, 1/8c of brown gravy on the cauli, and 1/2oz of avo. I was so full! LOL. No deprivation or lingering cravings for his meal!

you look fabulous!!! Sent from my SM-G930VL using BariatricPal mobile app

I had morphine in my IV too. Didn't ask for it, they just put it in there! lol. I was sent home with Tylenol liquid with codeine. I'd say the pain was about a 5 for me. I didn't feel the need to take the Tylenol when I got home. It's really hard to believe part of your organ is missing and you're not in that much pain.

So last night I'm partying at a club in Rome and a lot of guys start dancing with me one after the other. I was really flattered by the attention for sure but the REAL victory is that I danced the entire night from techno to hip hop and everything in between. I was not even tired...next level [emoji356]

I used to live in Boston & know that place! In the more than three years since I was sleeved, I don't go to all you can eat restaurants any more. For me it's become more about quality than quantity. I'm lucky that my wife really supports me both at home & at restaurants. She's good about sharing. I mention this not just as a suggestion, but as proof that when someone helps you, your efforts multiply. Good luck. You are not alone.
