  2. I had some of my moms famous mac and cheese on Easter, prob 3 noodles and top cheese. Do I regret it? Heck no it was so good. Dont beat yourself up it was a Holiday!
  3. I have to say, everyone says Sex is better being thinner but Ive has thin sex, fat sex and thinner 43 lbs less sex and its the same. Maybe its my partner lol. Ive been married 19 years to the same man but wouldnt trade him in for a gazillion years unless Nikki Sixx comes a knockin lol. Its all the same to me, still good.
  4. Being a valued employee of 9 yrs. I had gobs ofsick/vaca time. I have a great job and great boss.
  5. I am so Thankful for this surgery, thankful I have great Federal Ins that covered it. The whole process was so easy for me, no preop diet. I sometimes dont believe Ive been one of the lucky ones, no complications etc. the weight is falling off ( 44 lbs). I see so many people on here tempting fate by why? Its not easy by any strech but Im working my tool.
  6. What I was told was once on solids, only 1/4th cup of food protein first evrn if it means all chicken and 1 green bean. So 1/4 cup 3 times a day. I was told no eating between. Then at the 6th month mark only 1/2 cup 3 times and at 1 yr 1 cup of food. Maybe At some point, certainly not now, I may be able to eat more but not gonna. Ive lost 44 lbs in 9 wks so Im doing somdthing right. I should be at goal by July. I think you need to hit reset and call your dr. Something is not right.
  7. Just because you can eat that much doesn't mean you should. You need to measure out your food. You are not supposed to eat til full just satisfied.
  8. I LOVE the movie Outsourced, saw it again yesterday!
  9. Bending down in the shower to shave my legs without the big belly in the way and being able to complete the job without coming up every few seconds.
  10. Its sad that some people are so addicted to soda. Check how many tablespoons of sugar are in it. You might as well just open the sugar bowl and pour into your mouth. I mean that in the nicest possible way.
  11. Maybe its for the best that she left. Maybe she will find a forum more suited to her and they can stroke her ego. Its akin to her saying Im prettier than you. You can win friends and influence people by calling others Fatties. And alsoadding if you have nothing to add move along. Its just plain rude. I had many people say Im not big enough for surgery and I told them all Im big enuff. They were trying to be nice I mean who knows what to say? I was 240 when in early Dec 12 I found out I was approved. During tbat time before surgery I ate up to 247, stupid I know! We are all on here to support each other regardless if we are 200 or 600 we have the same struggles. I was scared to death of dying to table and so many women and men here calmed myfears, Im forever grateful!
  12. The most pain I had were those Lovinox shots in the tummy. Yeoh! Im so glad I didnt have to do them at home.
  13. What ate you're post op instructions. You have to go by that.

  15. If people knew what was in Soda diet and regular. No one would drink it. I liked Dr Pepper when I was in high school until I found out whats really in it besides sugar water. I got my husband and kids off it but I cringe cuz I know my 13 yr old son gets it at school.
  16. I'm with Olivers mom I dont drink it ever. I learned a long time ago that they color it with motor oil. Google gross things in food and you will see.
  17. Sat night before my surgery on Wed, We went to Fuddruckers( best burgers) I've never been a big overeater, tremendous sweet tooth. It was so good. The night before my surg. I had a BLT and said goodbye to the thing that I was addicted to: Ben and Jerrys Phish food fro yo its not yogurt its ice cream, those liars but I knew that.its been 2 mos and 1 day since Ive said goodbye to my beloved and no longer crave it. Down 41 pounds. Surg on 1/30/13
