I love my growing confidence. I missed her, she's buried a long time.

I don't think this surgery is by any means easy or the easy way out but I don't understand why it enrages people who do so much? You're entitled to you opinion but I just can't understand why it makes people so mad when they have no idea what your story is or what you are going through. Also, when someone is in the news for losing with the surgery they get tons of hateful comments about how they are lazy and the surgery was too easy and they should have to struggle with trying to lose it without.
People would be a lot better off if they would just let others live their lives and quit judging.

I went to a Christmas party three weeks out one glass of white wine and was violently ill not long after drinking it. I thought it might of been too soon

The exterminator in our building came in this morning and says - "you look completely different, you have lost a lot of weight"! I said yes 60 pounds, he walked away shaking his head, "wow that was in a short time and you can really really tell"!
Yea - I feel GREAT now - lol

My first NSV
I have been reading a lot of nsv in this tread and most of them are happening to me too, the one that really surprise me was this one, I was shopping yesturday and I always wants to buy color bracelets with matching earrings when I shop for my vacation stufs but the bracelets were always to small for me and I always tell my friend that those bracelets are made for skinny people only but yesturday I tried one that it look nice knowing that will not fit like always but IT DID and I start trying all of them and all fit, I was so happy and surprise that i called my husband to check how they look in my hand, It was my first time in years that I was able to purchase one of those bracelets!!!!!

Right a bunch of roid heads have opinions on WLS that matter? In reference to the article itself: Wow people really need to not comment on things they have absolutely no understanding of. As I've learned it's one thing to be thought of as foolish and quite another to open your mouth and prove it.

The GYN stories are funny and familiar. Mine has known me for 20 years. He really wanted to see "my work!" (My scars) What a nerd. Lol.

I just wanted to share how thing are going since banding back. n November. So I've lost 33 lbs which is great but I pray it speeds up or at least doesn't stop. I am eating less have a whole list of foods I've tried that the Beast won't tolerate. I've had one fill about two weeks ago and now I'm down to a 1/2 cup of food. I eat more than that and it's a world of pain for me. I feel full for hours but I'm still battling head hunger in earnest. I wonder constantly am I doing this right? I eat till I feel full which is approximately when the hunger stops. I struggle with slowing down still and taking smaller bites (alot of eating on the go to undo) I pray constantly that I don't screw this up because I truly don't want to have to do any kind of further WLS if I can avoid it. I'm thankful for the support group here. Was curious about how your journey is going?

Woo hoo my doctor was good to his word and I had my surgery yesterday!

I've got two NSV. I could zip up my winter coat this year, last it didn't fit and my stomach doesn't touch the steering wheel in the car anymore more! Down 21 lbs

My doc said no but not why but four things occurred to me
1. Can you imagine if you accidentally swallowed it? It would block the stoma. Not a pleasant thought.
2 chewing gum gets your stomach juices going and may make you feel hungry (I do when I chew)
3 chewing gum causes gas ESP the sugar free. Same with mints.
4 with all the chewing you must do with the band why add extra stress with gum (I have TMJ preband so gum is off limits)

Your story broke my heart. Prayers that it gets better for you and your angels. Glad you know you must do what best for you and your children with or without him.

I've lost 30 lbs!!! Im 4 lbs away from being under 300 I am so excited! I am learning everyday what is friendly and what's not. Like today I learned that Peanut Butter for me is a no no. The Beast was not happy. I have named my band Beast because it's a beast when I screw up.

Yeah I,think that's what concerns him he wants me to be good for me not what everyone else is doing. I'll get over it but for now im stewing about it.

My doc won't tell me how much is in there or how much he recovered or put in. Im kinda aggravated but maybe it's a good thing. He knows im very inquisitive about all thing medical and ESP my band. I think he doesn't want me to be obsessive about it? Im not really that way just curious really. I don't know, I feel that this is mine and I have a right to know but he won't tell. I love him to pieces but this is annoying me.
