Yes- just last week a guy came up to talk to my hubby and I in the park- he mentioned how nice it was for me to be there walking with my DAD! Lmao! To his defense I dont wear my wedding ring right now because it's a size 9.5 and now I wear a size 6.5- but still! It was so funny

Yea- I'm short- and round like a ball!

Sleeved May 15- so two weeks in front - have lost 62 lbs so far- only 4 pre op. Having the same chewing, quick eating, and protien issues as many. I don't think I have ever once hit the goals- but I do the best I can every day without over stuffing myself. There must be something right. 250 day if surgery- today 192.

Sleeved 5/15/12 weighed 250 day of surgery Last weigh in- down 60 lbs. Size 24- now 14

When I had my surgery, I wore my upper and lower retainers. Hell I just spent 6000 on braces and had them in for 4 years, I wasn't about to have something get chipped or a tooth come out! I just put them in right before I went in, and had them in when I woke up, and gave them to my husband. They never said anything about them, and I was also one of the only people that didn't have a sore throat from the tube down my throat! :-)

I put mine back in the next day- hubby did it for me.

I was nervous about this also- The day of surgery I took out my navel piercing but that was all. I have other piercings- and those were not taken out- and no one asked or requested I take them out. One day after surgery my husband replaced my belly ring with just a curved bar- and everything ended up fine. I had my VSG in Mexico- May 15, 2012

I wouldn't do that- that's too much sugar and will make that new tummy wrench around!

* when my husband says he feels kinda guilty every time he holds me because he feels like he's cheating *when my scale goes nothing but DOWN every single day!

And I actually do it- and I enjOy it

I hardly ever do now- its kinda nice! You may be surprised after you get out of the oops I crapped my pants from thinking it was a fart mode! I maybe fluff twice a day now! BURPING louuuuuudly- well that's another story

Omg - me too - and bragging because they could tolerate a half of a McDonalds cheeseburger- or a kids corn dog sat well- or was able to keep down a diet coke with no issues- WHY have your gut cut out if that's your goal in life- to eat crap forever?!?!

Now there's a SMART girl!

I could not agree with you MORE! No room for crap in my lifestyle Amy longer! If I'm going healthy- I'm going 100%!!!
