jaded

I had surgery in September of 2012.

Thanks so much everyone! I was having a minor freak out but feeling much better now! :-)

Sorry, 13 months post op, not 11!!!

I was 373 at my heaviest, 357 pre surgery, currently 255, have gained 3lbs since pregnancy. I am no where near goal. Pregnancy was not planned but I know I wasn't careful enough. Am I totally screwed? Are my chances of reaching a healthy weight decreased because I got pregnant before I reached goal? PS when will my hair grow back?! :-(

Sleeved 9/19/12 Surgery weight: 340 Current weight: 285 A little over 3 months out & down 55 pounds. I expected more. O.o

Sleeved: 9/19/12 I'm down 53 pounds, started at 340, now 287. I really can't see the difference, but I can feel it. My major issue right now is that I am not eating & exercising the way I should to optimize my tool! I need to get off my butt!!!

The pain was bearable most of the time but every once in a while I would bend or twist the wrong way and get this excruciating burning/tearing feeling, but like I said the girdle helped so so much!

I was in pain for about 4 weeks & couldn't take the pain pills because of work. What really helped me was I wore a girdle that held my stomach tight. They also make binders you can wear. I saw one at Walgreens for about $30.

I was sleeved 9/19/12. I have lost 42 pounds but all of a sudden I'm able to eat more than I could before. I'm worried my losing streak is over. :-(

Thanks guys! I'm no where near goal but I have hope again! :-)

For the first time in 7 years, I am under 300 pounds. I just need a moment to take this in...

I have trouble with eating slow. My bites are always too big. :-( I bought a food processor and its a huge help, but I do miss red meat! :-)
