Hi had surgery June 15th and had 1st fill 1.5cc mid July. I have lost about 19lbs since start I do fine it very slow as I didn't lose for 3 of these weeks but didn't gain I suppose I shouldn't complain because it is suppose to be slow also if it wasn't for the band I would still have that 19lbs on my ass.... I still get a lot of head hunger and find I can have a little of the nice things without feeling to much guilt. I have upped my excercise and try to do 5k walk 3 times a week I feel much fitter and more healthy as I can't eat bread ( best news ever) it won't stay down no matter how much I try. Also I started to lose weight again when my husband hid my scales and I only get them now on a sat morn I was becoming obsessed and when I didn't lose I comfort ate which is my problem.

I'm sorry you have to experience that. I hope you find the support you need here or elsewhere. Take care both physically and emotionally. Remember that you are worth it and are very brave to do whatever you have to do to get healthy. The easy way out, really? I need clarification....which part is easy? Pre-op diet? Post op diet? Dealing with post surgery gas ? Redefining my relationship w food?

Great job!!! You sooo got this!

Hi surgery went well but I can't sleep... It's 1am and I feel like someone has punched me in the chest the nurses are great druged as much as she can for now. Having a walk around and a cup of tea that seems to have helped. We got Soup earlier and I couldn't finish it that's a first.

Congrats I am in the 15th so a little nervous

Best of luck have u got a surgery date yet.

Hi my surgery is tommorrow im very excited, is anybody experiencing any nervousness or feelings... Lets support each other, god will help us to have a perfect surgery and great recovery???‰
I haven't been nervous but now I am.., lol

As of yesterday, i'm officially down 60 pounds since my surgery date of Jan 25, 13. Today I celebrated by running my first 5k.
I never thought in a million years i'd be in a 5k, voluntarily, let alone JOGGING it.
WLS surgery has been the hardest thing I've ever done in my life, but little moments like this remind me of why I did it.
I attached a photo of a very happy me at the finish line.

After 3 years I can say 143 lbs down and keeping it off has been achieved!
