  2. It's been 3 months, going into 4... I've had 3 fill ins, still trying to get into my green zone. I loose, but not as much as I hoped for. I think I need to work out more. Starting weight at 257 current weight 219. Here's some Pixs: Me before surgery Two weeks after surgery I think about a month? 2 months ago Last month, shirt fit me big I got my old size but it didn't fit well, sadly I wore it once, and not again This is me now, with a shirt that marinated in my closet for two years. It fits and loose now.... Well everyone, I can really only count with the honesty that you lovely people can give me. It least I know you will be honest. I can handle it!
  3. Hi hunny! I got a lot of pain to, my surgery was may 1st, and I explain to my doctor that I was in a lot of pain, some days worst then others, and some days it would throb or feel extra warm, she told me not to worry because in order for it to heal its gonna take 6 months to year after surgery was done. Now if you have it more then a year call your doctor ASAP, see what's going on.
  4. Well my surgery was on May 1st, I went from 257- 224. I am still having trouble trying to get my protein in, and trying hard to loose and it's getting difficult. I did not get a fill in last month and felt I could have eaten everything, I got one this morning, I am up to 3.6cc; I am slowly but surely getting there. My diabetes is under control now, went from 4 pills a day to 1. All and all, I'm happy!
