Congrats! So happy for you!!

With my history as well, Biotin has really helped me. Thanks for reminding me to start taking it again!

Yeah! My friend Morgan said after a while it became habit, she knew what she could eat and how much but she still weighs things occasionally. Thanks girl!

Awesome! Thanks a lot! I need to invest in a scale!

I love Bed bath and beyond! i will have to go check it out! Thanks!

Oooh I didn't think about the smaller spoons! That will help wth the right sized bite! Thanks!!!

Same with me! I will be just cooking for myself so it may be a little easier. I have a lotof salad plates I can use, maybe keep a couple over if I have company... or make them all wat off small plates! haha. Thanks so much!

Hello all! Another question here. My surgery is in a few weeks and I read a lot about weighing out my food, using smaller dishes and things like MFP. I'm curious on how you all portion out your food? My weight loss Advocate swears its easiest to use small dishes? Sounds silly until she pulled out a small 3oz bowl when we were out eating and scooped what she was able into her bowl. I know there will be some trial and error but I just want an idea of how to make this transition easier. Thanks ahead of time!

Woo HOO! So glad it all went well!

How exciting! I love reading these because they give me a heads up. Surgery is in a few weeks and I CAN'T wait! I'm still nervous about the tube in the throat.. It just gives me anxiety thinking about it.. I'm not sure its the tube and not other things! Glad everything went smoothly for you! Best Wishes! xx

Hey, first off welcome and congrats on making your first step! I'm a newbie here too! My Surgery is in just a few weeks. I'm pretty nervous as well, the good thing is during that consultation you can ask as many questions as you want... at least thats what I did! There is a lot of people here that can explain how the actual surgery is performed etc. My suggestion is write down all your concerns and basic questions and make them known during the actual consultation. I'm excited for you and hope you get all your questions answered! I know I'm getting close to my surgery and I still ask 1000 questions! haha xx best wishes!

Im using TrueResults in Hurst, TX and I will have to say... they have been pretty amazing! TrueResults is great in general but like mentioned, because you're self pay, it may be easier to stay with the surgeon you have now, as long as you are confident and comfortable with them! TrueResults is really a great tool and advocate to use if you have to go through Insurance, as they help you with making it a much easier task then doing it on your own. Also my surgery is JULY 22nd... just a week after yours! woo hoo! Exciting. Keep us updated on everything!

Adored the story! Thanks for sharing!!! Congrats on all the extemely hard work!

Congrats!!! Excited for you! Woo hoo!!!!!

Aww this made me smile! I'm glad that through all of this, you still put you best foot forward! It is extremely inspirational. xx

Ahhh I'm so excited for ALL of you! congrats, deep breaths! xx

I have not started mine yet, but my doctor kept saying.. Variety variety variety. Try different flavors to keep in interesting. Hope the time flies by and everything goes smoothly!

I'm a newbie and I appreciate the heads up very much! I hope things get easier for you and things start to get better so you can start your journey! Best wishes to you, and hope you feel better! xx

Congrats on the Surgery date, its getting so close! I agree with everyone, trust the doctors and everything will be okay! Best wishes to you!!!!

I go to True Results in Hurst, TX and I've only had one time where I waited a long time. I hope all the other visits go smoothly!!!!!

I have a defect in my uterus and have my menstrual for sometimes up to 80 days, so this was my first question. My doctor was very sweet and said it happens often and they would give me paper panties and a pad to wear. The procedure is not long and they do there best to keep you covered and my privacy is there 1st concern next to my safety. It will be okay! Congrats on the surgery date!

Awesome, the tips are greatly appreciated! Thanks!
