    6Months Post Op Yesterday!

    Congrats! Keep up your good work
  4. Well, in 6 days i will be a year out of surgery. I am still diabetic, although the amount of insulin I am on is significantly less than what I was taking. My endo is going to put me on pills! No more insulin and needles! I'm down 92 pounds, with 15-20lbs to go. I will ge there, this has been one of the best decisions I have ever made, and I admit I could have never have done this on my own. I think for the first time I actually like what I see in the mirror, and to know what it fe...

  5. This was just what I needed today! This weekend, going out got me off track. Im five months out. I love the word 'fight' that u used. I needed this reminder to keep on track and fight for my health, my goal and my happiness. Thanks!

    My "large" Size Nsv

    Congrats! Cant wait until i get there! All these years walking by all the stores i would love to shop in! Ps. I love the sweatshirt & color!
  7. Thank you everyone, I really don't want to compare myself to anyone else, as much as I'd like a guideline or something. Like I said, the majority of the WLS people I know had gastric bypass and their weight loss is faster than vertical sleeve, so I guess I just wanted to know if others were like me...I am really excited to lose this weight. I feel the 'real' me is just dying to come out, and I'm on my way. My diabetes is the best its been in 13 years and I'm only 32! I love this site, the people on it. Its definitely been a journey, one that I am glad and thankful to be on. So thanks again, and best wishes for your journeys, health & happiness!
  8. Im almost three months out. I don't know anyone who has had the gastric sleeve surgery. Everyone that I know either has the band or has gastric bypass. So my question is, what is the weight loss for three months? I asked my Dr. but he said I'm fine but didn't really give me a number. I'm down 39lbs. But what is the average?
  9. I am almost 3 months out, and must confess I still eat too fast! The left hand idea is great, and i'm going to try that! Glad to hear you are positive, I like looking in the mirror too and seeing the changes here and there around my body. Congrats on making it this far with a positive attitude!
  10. Congratulations! That is awesome and look forward to the day that I can say this!
  11. Good luck! Prayers sent ur way! I'm 2 months out & it has gone so fast already. You will b great!

    The smell and the aftertaste!

    It can be exspensive, but its not forever & my food bills are cheaper. I go to a fitness store & purchase Isopure drinks, and they saved me. After surgery, I tried (and wasted) any type of shake mix but the smell and taste I just could not tolerate. There is 40grams of protein in each drink. Maybe try a few flavors and see if they are something that agrees with you. Good luck b/c just that smell nauseated me! Lol

    Spit - dont swallow!

    This is going to sound really bad...With Halloween just passed, my two sons came home with HUGE bags of candy! I know I shouldn't eat that junk. But---I love me some twix so I took a bite, chewed it and spit it out! LOL! All I wanted was a taste, and I was good to go!

    1 month out! I did it!

    My Dr. Told me that it may start off slow, so although I would LOVE to see more come off, I guess ill just be patient for now. Which is hard to do! Lol
