    Fallenangel2904 got a reaction from kcirym2vp@yahoo.com in Cake?   
    Also want to add that for me personally I had this surgery to live a normal life. A lot of people will say things like 'Oh don't eat that, it's not on plan' but for me this isn't a 'plan' this is my life. I'm not saying to go crazy and cram a sheet cake down your throat, but I don't want to deprive myself. If its my birthday and I want to have a tiny sliver of cake I'm going to work it into my calories for the day and do so and NOT feel guilt. If this surgery guaranteed I could never do that again I never would have done it. Part of the reason I didn't do RNY. It's a life style and a balance- for me anyway. Everyone is different. That's how I justify eating something like cake on a special occasion, just incase anyone was waiting to wag their finger at me lol.

    Fallenangel2904 got a reaction from BeagleLover in What Was Your Final "straw That Broke The Camels Back"   
    I injured my knee last year causing my to gain 40+ lbs (possibly more- I don't know my heighest weight) I had always been very mobile and active for someone mg size (300+) and after that I felt truly helpless and immobile. It was the worst feeling ever. My knee is still kind of messed up and I know weight loss will help. Honestly I feel like I've 'outgrown' this city- NYC it's just NOT a good place to be fat in. There is so much walking, stairs, turnstyles- it's almost impossible to be far here and live okay- at least THIS fat. I want my life back, that's what I realized and that's my main motivation for surgery- to live a normal life here.

    This is not me telling you to go ahead and do it but I'm able to have little bits. My birthdays just passed (I'm 2 months post op) and I had a tiny piece on my birthday. No nausea or problems. Almost wish I did have a problem so I would never want to try again lol (no not really. I'm thankful for no problems!) but alas my sleeve is basically made of titanium and has handled everything I've thrown at it like a trooper. My experience is not average however so yours may vary (my disclaimer lol)

    I wasn't quite 400lbs but close. I was over 380 at my biggest but I think I was closer to 400 then I thought. I was too big for my scale. I have got down to 359 for surgery. I'm 2 and a half months out and down to 305. All together 74lbs lost so far.
    As a heavy weight is is a longer journey but it is completely doable. I wasn't sure I would be successful with the sleeve at first at my weight but I'm convinced I can now. There is a BMI over 50 board on OH and some of the people there started over 400 and have lost a LOT. It's very inspiring.

    I wasn't quite 400lbs but close. I was over 380 at my biggest but I think I was closer to 400 then I thought. I was too big for my scale. I have got down to 359 for surgery. I'm 2 and a half months out and down to 305. All together 74lbs lost so far.
    As a heavy weight is is a longer journey but it is completely doable. I wasn't sure I would be successful with the sleeve at first at my weight but I'm convinced I can now. There is a BMI over 50 board on OH and some of the people there started over 400 and have lost a LOT. It's very inspiring.

    Fallenangel2904 got a reaction from VSGAnn2014 in 13 yr old getting sleeve. Need recommendations in Mexico   
    As a morbidly obese child then teenager I feel for you and your daughter. At 13 I was probably a little over 300 pounds and began looking into weight loss surgery around that time. There were no surgeons in the US that would perform surgery on someone my age and back then Mexico wasn't an option. Though part of wishes I would have been able to have surgery then (I wound up having it 10 years later at 23) I don't think at 13, as much as I read about it and studied it that I would have been mentally prepared for it. Not by a long shot. Though part of my definitely wishes that I could have grown up and had my teenage years without being morbidly obese. Just want to wish you all the best and lots of luck!

    Fallenangel2904 got a reaction from B Autumn in Size 30 Jeans! Maybe this doesn't sound good to you, but...   
    Congratulations!! I can relate. At my heaviest (over 380) I was pushing the size to the very end of what most plus stores carried. I was a 26/28 with some things very tight. It was frustrating to not be able to shop in even plus size stores that didn't go past a 24 and a lot of the trendy cute ones don't. I always said to myself when starting this journey that I would be SO grateful to just get back into regular plus sizes. Now I'm down 74lbs and a size 22 and its AWESOME!! I went into H&M recently (they now have a plus size line here in NYC which is awesome) and I tried on a 3X top and it was TOO BIG!! That has pretty much NEVER happened to me! I was too big for the last size in most stores like that just a short time ago and now a 3x was too big! It was a surreal feeling!!
    Anyway I can definitely relate to what your saying. Can't wait of you to get down to a 28!!
