So what's y'all's weight loss been and where ya from? From FL and moved to TX in July. Surgery was 10/16 SW 273, DOS 257, CW 203.

Meant to put 120 as my goal, not 220! .

I'm with ya! I don't think I'm going back to him. I really don't need to my anxiety is getting better the more weight I lose. Thank GOD!

Lmao! My girlfriend calls me tits! My son was about fourish and he was holding both our hands walking into a restraunt and tells the waiter and everyone sitting around us, "these are my rainbow mommies, she's sleezball (my friend) and she's tits (me)!" Lmao I wanted to strangle both of them! I had a fiancé that passed away in a motorcycle accident and I was sitting around with his friends one night reminiscing and they were telling me the story of when Dave told his friends about me. Yeah, the only discription they got was, "her tits are huge!" Lol it's true they don't know what we look like from the neck up! Oh the stories! Lol one of my senior gag gifts was duck tape with a label that said, "this is not for your mouth! Put a leash on them puppies!" Lol fortunately I'm not offended by the jokes I just tell them to shut up before they get knocked out and not with my fists! Hehe

Iggy your a freaking trip!! I don't have a. Notdstroms, it's either jcp or sears and they don't make em big enough. I used to buy from a mastectomy shop but by age 22 after wearing granny bras that cost $70 through my teenage years, I found lane Bryant and felt like a woman with real breast. I'm going to measure this weekend I'm just cheap and don't want to spend money on something that won't last. Lol ill get over it! I use to do competitive clogging as a girl/teen and my dad would always come to me and tell me to freshen my makeup because I had black eyes! Lol My mom and sister are both my height, 110, and perfect perky C's. b*****s! Lol I am 4'10 and just hope they continue shrinking so my high school nickname doesn't come back to haunt me...Weebel! even if I fall I don't have far to go! Hehe

Oh wow, I put mine at 220 but even that is considered overweight for my height, but when I told my shrink my goal he laughed and told me not to expect it! I took that as a major challenge! Look out here I go!! Lol I was 107 my senior year of high school 20 yrs ago. But, that was after losing quite a bit and even then I didn't feel like I was "skinny." Time will tell.

I'm 4'10, 12 weeks out and down 70 lbs. my starting weight was 273, 257 surgery, and 203 now. I don't think my pant sizes are decreasing as quickly as someone average height as I've only gone from a tight 24 to a 20, however, the weight loss is great. Just curious what someone my heights goal weight is?

A cup or two depending on how thin you'd like it.

One more thing...do you love them? I've always wanted to love my boobs but they never gave me a reason to! Thanks you've given me hope!! Lol

Wow is right! Lol talk about reducing your risk of breast cancer! I think mine will probably shrink a lot. I haven't broke down and bought bras yet but I need to. I was a 44DD and have lost 70 lbs my cups need cups! Lol I just don't know what size to buy. I order them from Lane Bryant and there's not a store where I live. Anyway, congrats on your weightloss and your boobs!!

I was a Pepsi girl and I withdrew so bad after surgery I went out a few days a week and bought a Slurpee. I was only able to have a few bites but it took care of the craving. I no longer crave it at all. I'm not saying to do this, but I know the feeling! I still haven't been able to give up sweet tea which is bad, but the way I look at it is...I don't drink, don't smoke, don't do drugs, don't gamble, and I'm still losing weight. If it comes down to me stalling ill cut back but I'm down 70 lbs so far from my pre op diet. Surgery was 10/16.

Ah huh I knew that subject would strike some attention! Lol! Anyway, I'm just curious to know if there are any vets who were big breasted before, if you are still? I was a 34f at 107 lbs. However, I've nursed 2 kids for 2 yrs and gained 164 lbs since then. I'm curious to know if they'll go or if they'll stay. I really want them to go so I can get a lift and implants, but, I know my life isn't revolved around my wants.

Sleeved 10/16, BW 273, SW 257, CW 205 I was hospitalized at post op week 3 for a week for dehydration, uti, and kidney stones. I had a lactose intolerance that has since gotten better and I can tolerate some dairy now. The 1st 6 weeks were hell, but I'm doing great now.

Wow you all look so awesome! I was sleeved 10/16 and have lost 68 lbs. but having that said...I've only gone down 3 pant sizes and maybe because I see myself everyday, but I don't see as big a difference as some of you. I haven't taken a pic in about a month, but the one attached was 15 lbs heavier.

No prob! Anytime. That's what we're here for! Most of my recipes are just things I've thrown together and hoped it turned out. I'll list a few of my favs and you can see if you like them. Congrats on your sleeve. I was sleeved 10/16/12 and down 68 lbs. the first 6 weeks were hell, but once I got through that I am doing very well. Anyway, here's a few of my fav recipes for full/soft foods: Canned chicken breast chicken marinated in Italian dressing. (Best after few hours in fridge) Egg salad with dill seasoning Cream cheese on saltines Canned chicken breast chicken with pesto, goat cheese, and sundried tomatoes (I put 3 canned chicken undrained in crockpot with pesto, for few hours then top with goat cheese and sundried tomatoes (I use Classico Sundried Tomato Pesto and Knorr Creamy Pesto Sauce) I make tortilla soup with a store bought rotisserie chicken, taco seasoning, black Beans, chili powder, can of rotel, 2 cans of cream of chicken soup, one soup can filled with Water.

I'm not sure how many ounces it is but it's about twice the size of a can of tuna. I usually just but the cheapest no certain brand. I only use one can but you can put as much in as you want. I read that someone did cook it on the stove with good results.

Hey Chris, where in TX are y'all? San Angelo here.

Liz, so glad your getting better! My fav mushy meals were: Canned chicken breast chicken marinated in Italian dressing Egg salad with light mayo, mustard, and dill seasoning Taco soup (I posted the recipe on this site) Canned chicken breast chicken with pesto, goat cheese, and sundried tomatoes I had the lactose issue until about week 6 and lived off the first two until then. Still praying for ya girl! HAPPY BIRTHDAY!! Julie

You can add some chicken broth. It should be creamy but not a dip.

Texas

Sure, as a PI wannabe, I'd be willing to do that! . Do you need an intern? Haha jk

What kind of business is it?

It comes in a can and is a salsa like mix.
