    Where are the 50s ???

    You can gain wieght back if you don't eat right. If I ate high calorie high sugar milk shakes all day I would not lose weight. Same with Cakes and cookies. Eat protien first than veggies than healthy fruits. You will loss fast and keep it off.

    With any life changing event you have retrain yourself. I think people get nauseea is because they think they can eat like before surgery. You have to llearn the sign of being full. You will throw up if you eat to much. Certain food still make me sick. Especailly fried or greasy foods. The old saying slip slip chew chew and walk walk reaally works. Hope this helps.

    You will be amazed how much better you will feel. I had my surgery in Sept. and I have lost over 60 pounds and doing things I have never done before. Just got back from a cruise. I swam with the stingrays in a bathing suit. I walked the Mayan ruins. There was a lot of hills and walking and I did it without havving to sit down every other second to catch my breathe. And that is just the beginning. I signed up for my first 5K which is in April. It is the best thing I ever did for myself.
  6. Hey girl, I am doing great. How are you doing? I am so glad I did this. One of my stitches wont come out so I have to see my doctor for that but other than that everything is working good.

  7. I was sleeved September 20th and feeling great. I am having problems with the sweetness of the protein shakes but I forced myself to drink them.With pre-op and post -op I have lost 22 lbs. I am doing great. I find it hard to stay in the house I been shopping everyday and walking the park when its not raining.In two week I will start going to the gym. Next week I will start mushies and I can't wait. My stitches are bothering me and I can not take them myself so I have an appointment with my doctor to removed them. Glad to hear everyone is doing good.
  8. I was there Sept. 20th through Sept. 23rd and the whole time I was there I never felt unsafe. I even knew about the robberies and I still went. I feel the forum favors certain doctors over others. I am sure if we dug alittle we would find some bad event that happened to patients at other doctors in Mexico. I think I find it funny if someone post about Dr. Aceves or Dr.Kelly, they get many responses. If someone post something positive about their experience with Dr. Almanza, you either get no responses or some counter posts something negative about him. Just who pays for this site?

    San Diego Hotels

    I stayed at the Days Inn/ sea world. I think it was under $65 a night. I didn't get free shuttle service to the hotel from the airport but they do offer free shuttle to the airport in the morning but make sure you pre- arrange it with the shuttle driver.

SN-------------SW-------CW--------GOAL-------Pounds to goal Lorip............. 258............... 240.............. 220 ........... 20 lbs. I hope this is possible. I haven't lost any weight since I got home. I hope once I move to mushes it will kick start.
  13. I feel shes wrapped up in the attention she gets from the men on her website. As long as the men are admiring her, she will never change. Usually heavyset women don't get attention from men. I feel she has an addiction to the the attention she gets from men. I look at her face and see a beautiful young lady hiding inside. Hopefully she will see the light before its to late.

    Breast?

    I have been on a Pre-op diet for two weeks and I can tell the difference. Of course I am in my 50s too, but I seem to be losing substance to them. I don't care if I am flat chested once I lose this weight as long as I loss the BIF (butt in front).
  19. I can't wait to shop off the clearance rake and actually find things that will fit.
  20. My son is getting married next year in the fall and I can't wait to go shopping for my dress. I will be able to pick what I want to wear instead of taking a dress only because it is all that available in the plus size department.
