  1. Man it's hard not to! I've had a pretty hard time in the three weeks and I think my weightloss is pretty good. Literally 21 lbs in 21 days. Truly, I'm fine with that. But then you log in and see someone whose breezed through everything and lost 50 lbs in 6 weeks. (Halfway to goal which means she had 100 to lose just like me) I'm positive I won't lose 30 more lbs in the next three weeks since the dreaded stall is about to find me most likely, and even though inWAS just fine with my weightloss, now I'm dissapointed. Lol. I try not to read those threads but sometimes it just creeps up on ya. So. I'd love to hear from others whose weight isn't just falling off them.
  2. Well heck. They are sending me home on Coumadin. what jf that happens to me!? I so desperately want this to be over. At least the pain and worst of it. I'm nervous about taking Coumadin. all the side effects etc.
  3. I realize that we are to eat very slowly in a 30 minute time frame and never eat more than we feel comfortable with. But what should that look like? More like 2 tablespoons or 1/4 cup? Week 3 Thanks.
  4. You can't take anything? I'm on tramadol an it helps a ton. I'm 2.5 weeks out
  5. I'm 29 and I remember the sardines being like that when I was little. I miss them. There was something cathartic about doing that.
  6. What the heck? I've missed hairy cooches!!
  7. Thee heave been angry couch pics on vst?
  8. I went to mi doctor. Loved dr. Garcia. As far as American type hospitals, I'd say go with Aceves in Mexicali or Alvarez who is just over the border from eagle pass Texas.
  9. I plan on doing lots of those old buns of steel moves my mom used to do when I was a kid. They burn! I'm gonna have a round bum!!
  10. Well, I guess since this is rare, chances are you won't get it. But I had severe stomach pain for a week. Doubled over on the floor crying out to god pain. Was mis"diagnosed" 3 times because noone wanted to take me very seriously. Sigh
  11. Amanda, I'm in the hospital with blood clots in the vessels in(on?) my intestines. It's rare, they say I'm an "interesting case". Had I waited, parts of my bowel actually could have died and I'd need sirgery. I've been here since yesterday and I seem to be improving already. The pain really seems to Have subsided quite a bit. But. My butt. it looks like an old ladies rump.
  12. I have been feelin all good about myself until I saw my reflection in a full length mirror yesterday. Sure I'm losing but oh my lawd, my butt is taking on a stupid shape. I'm only 18 days out and I'm blaming this butt shape on lack of exercise. Sitting on my arse, trying to heal and figure out what's wrong with my gut (whole other story). You know how some people have that flat spot then it gets round on the top? Like you can see where they have sat for years and years? That's now MY butt. NOOOOOO! I can't WAIT til I can exercise and get my fat redistributing. Dang.
  13. Like its any of her business. Some people are so clueless when it comes to boundaries. *Thoink* My grandma gave me the whoooole spiel that I'm taking the Easy way out, Al roker got that surgery and lost all the weight but he gained back 30 pounds and now he has to eat EVEN healthier. What makes you think this diet will be any different than any other diet? Why don't you just eat what sUrgery patients eat and skip the sURgery. You've got to stop being so selfish and only thinking of yourself. Have you had your thyroid checked? Another THOINK Sigh. Nunya
  14. I'm with you. I'm craving fish so bad!!
  15. What do your instincts tell you? I'd probably ask him to go ahead and stretch of at all possible. What if it doesn't resolve itself? I'd want to get better ASAP rather than wait 6 more weeks without proper nutrition.
  16. I didn't realize it was posted in a gay forum, as i just click "recent topics" and read. nor did I realize the gay forum was for posting photos of yourself half nude. Since this is vst and not eharmony. *shrug* . I'm not sensitive necessarily, I just think its more respectful to yourself to just pose natural and modestly. You've come a long way op.
  17. Lol they did in the er. My lee is so dark tho, I am gonna ask for more. I THOUGHT this little Baggie was heparin and Fluid so I shirked my drinking responsibility then I realized it was just the heparin. Oops.
  18. Deleting my comment even tho you can see it below in quotes. I should have politely made my siggestion privately. It was rude of me to do so in public. I'm sorry op and you have a pm
  19. I'm correctly having a similar pain because of my pancreas. I can't eat any fat right now. Worth checking into.
  20. Two MONTHS out. I was so confused. Lol lookin good
