  2. You must FEEL amazing!!!!!
  3. Congrats - and the best of luck! Keep us posted
  4. I eat a third of a banana with real Peanut Butter almost every day- and I'm 10 weeks post op and have lost 56lbs- since surgery- some peoples bodies handle it! Fruit is good carbs! And they help me to lose every day!
  5. I am~ It's hard, my brain hasn't caught up with all the inches that are gone yet tho! :-)
  6. Thank you! I think it only gets better from here!
  7. My pleasure! I always love to look at images of people changing their lives! I do mine at least once every two weeks, and take measurements! :-)
  8. You are going to love your sleeve! I wish I had done it sooner~ But I had to wait until I was READY! and if you are ready, you will be successful!
  9. Thanks everyone~ Yes, I will take dry skin any day over my body hurting, my feet aching, and my Dr wanting to put me on medications for the rest of my life! NO THANKS! :-) I'm good with just getting sleeved and leaving all the unhealthy stuff alone the rest of my life! I ate crap for the first 36 years, NOW IT"S TIME TO LIVE!
  10. Thank you! I think I am going to buy stock in the lotion I use, cause I have to lotion up ALL THE TIME! I am so dry since surgery! :-)
  11. I'm 10 weeks post op as of yesterday, and today I am down 60lbs total, 56 since surgery May 15! I am loving the sleeved life! I feel almost normal again! Size 24 to 14-16 now! The hard work is paying off now!
  12. I took a shower- the day after surgery- about 25 hours after- and oMg it was the best thing ever! It felt incredible - I had a drain- but I tucked the tube up under a boob- and stood in the shower with the water on my back for a good long time! It felt great! And it helped me sleep. I needed a LOT of help because having had my GB out also- I was in an enormous amount of pain- and needed help from my wonderful husband- (in everything)
  13. I eat one or two a week- after I do my miles- I will sit in the sun and eat one- I love them- and I'm losing like mad.
  14. this iis why I reply frankly to the "So I'm post-op, when can I eat french fries, Doritos, cheese Doodles, etc.?" posts. I'm not trying to be judgmental. There are just some folks who do not change their eating habits and I want to help" OMGOSH this makes me crazy! But their money- (or insurance) their health! I can say for me- NO THANKS!

  16. I started mine (not on time) one day post op- sinc then it's been 28 days away from that day- super steady- and on time. I'm always surprised when I comes on time - and is super light- and three day
