  1. I am from Oklahoma and my dr was dr gorospe!
  2. Hope they figure it out and you get to go home some... Best wishes for a quick resolution
  3. Joan... Your story moved me to tears... Great job on completing your run. Hugs!!!
  4. mami... you are shrinking away!! Vicki couldnt agree with you more you just say it so much more eloquantly then I ever could. Nursie... no one is ever the "one" who doesnt lose weight unless they arent following pouch protocol. You will be fine. If you do have a stall, have patience and your scale will catch up with you. Hugs your way!!
  5. Congrats.. You will have something truly to be thankful for!
  6. Us older ones always have a hard time... Hell my daughter was having a bad day and I almost said let's go get a milkshake ... Just like we have always done... I'm glad you are giving her another chance.
  7. Weird how every surgeon is different.. Mine wants me to drink one Protein Drink a day.. 2 if I can.. And do that forever! I still get a good bit of protein from eating
  8. I would call the dr just to be on the safe side.
  9. Be careful of the shots.. Most contain the wrong kind of protein for the pouch crowd
  10. Just tried strawberry sorbet... It's good
  11. Ordered unjury for the first time on Wednesday... Excited that I got it today. I ordered the cheese sauce the chicken soup and the starter pack and I will let you know what I think of it all. Can't believe it got here so quick!
  12. slowtogo... ignorant to tofu.. what is silky tofu? and how do you add to cream soups
  13. Having patience doesnt end when you have surgery either guys.... the stalls with the losses will have you pulling your hair out if it isnt falling out already... Use the time to get physically and mentally ready for the changes coming your way. We can all empathize because we have all been in your shoes...It is rare for anyone to not wait 3 to 6 months. I can hardly wait for each of you to be approved.. It is an exciting time. Good luck to each of you!!!
  14. I dont know... I would have twisted it around and said something like... I have some tips on how to lose a ton of weight if your interested...people are ignorant... You are doing great... keep up the good work
  15. I hope that you can quit easily... It is an awful habit
  16. Timtammy ... All I can say is wow!!! The gall of someone saying it sucks to be you is just crazy. Keep your head up and ignore the jerk... Hope you aren't related.. And keep moving on to a healthier you!!
  17. Your not fluffy honey.... You look great!!!! Congrats!!!
  18. dont think you can drink too much water this early out. I would just sip til you cant sip no more. From what I have read about dehydration... You dont want that to happen
  19. welcome to the boards... Glad to have you here!!!
  20. It took about 3 weeks before I started feeling better. You have been thru quite an ordeal... I dont think I worried about anything those first few weeks except water because I didnt want to get dehydrated. Our bodies need time to adjust. I slept alot... it's what you need to heal. Plus most of us had or have enought fat to live off of for a week or so without malnutrion becoming an issue.
  21. The other girls hit the nail on the head. I have found exercise to be of great enjoyment now... used to hate it!!! Just started swimming again after not doing so in about 20 years. We have an indoor pool in our town. Love it! As time passes the dwelling on food will cease. Good luck hun!!
  22. Glad you still have your sense of humor girlie
