  1. I totally dont understand the Bmi and size thing as well I'm 5'7 half and 209 19 weeks out but I look so much smaller and I'm thinking like if I get to normal Bmi I would look too skinny I've lost 90 pounds so far so rethinking my goal weight .. I also think the Bmi I chart does not take in consideration of body type and make or female some body type make you look more muscular which makes you look heavier then the small frame which make u look smaller but you weigh more than what ppl think it crazy but good luck and u look great
  2. Oh I have one hot boil peanuts if your from Louisiana u kno what I'm talking about so good

  5. I'm 1 yr and months out from being smoke free I read on this forum that stop smoking makes you gain weight and honesty it's true .. So the ppl who wanna stop smoking what of you stop a yr after being sleeved and gain weight it would be a waste of your money .. I gained 25 pounds when I stop smoking at the beginning of my journey .. I just thought it was something to think about its something I think about .. I'm struggling everyday w staying smoke free because I was a stress smoker and eater and now that I really don't or smoke it's hard to deal w the stress .. Gaining weight back is more fearful

  12. In the beginning I did a lot of walking but then in April I had a emergency hernia pair due to my hernia becoming obstructed so I'm on exercise restriction since April but this coming Monday I'm being release and going back to work and I sign up for the gym because I have no strength
  13. Your doc is in Mexico hmm I'm not a dr but I would just wait the six weeks and just continue taking a shower .. It's shocking that you didn't leave the hospital w instructions on what the care is after words about your wounds and bathing who ever does your follow up visit maybe u should ask them .. Because its important to do a follow which is a week to two week after surgery maybe at a month
  14. I didn't weigh in they use the weight taken from the office and they ask me my weight at the hospital oh but u will be taking a pregnancy test which was shocking because I took one at pre op

  20. 4 1/2 months and down 87 pounds I want to lose 12 pounds by my 5 month mark
  21. I wouldn't say it's a bad thing that you can eat a 6 in sub I'm 4 month two weeks out and can't eat that much but I'm kind jealous of some of the food ppl can tolerate I was a big salad lover and still have a hard time w it and bread swell up in my stomach .. If the weight is still coming off its good and if it helps u some take one of the breads off next time u have one
