hey welcome to vsg talk. how have you done post sleeve. i would love to chat with you since you are 15 months out. or post some what has happened since surgery. just interested in how it is going. thanks, laura

hey girl. i thank you for the compliment on my new picture. i don't feel tiny. i feel so fat and i hate it. i can't seem to get under 200#. i did for 3 days and then i jumped back up to 200#. i hate what my body is doing. i weighed 197 for 3 days and then i gained 3#. i don't really understand. i am doing something wrong.. it has been 5 months and i am not at goal yet. what do i need to do. thought about taking some diet pills i have left over from last year. some days are better than others,but i am snacking like crazy. not on bad stuff but am snacking. i hate what i am doing. feel like i am messing up big time. HELP!!!

is this karla from the gnc store in fort oglethrope,ga?if it is i am so glad that i found you on here!!!!

hey rachel, hope you are doing well. haven't seen or heard from you in a month. please e-mail if you don't want to come on here. again i hope you are doing well. i am concerned about you. love you girl and keep your head up.

hey girl- how are doing? that is great about your sons being with you on easter. hope you have a great time. hope you are doing well and this finds you with everything going your way. you are a great inspiration!! way to go. i love reading your post and it keeps my head up.

hey girl. glad you are doing well after your surgery. don't worry about the water gain it will come off once you can get up and move around. just continue to drink your liquids and get up and walk. it will go away.

i was sleeved back in dec. on the 8th. i have been doing really good. well that's not too far.

hey tennessee. how far is spring hill from chattanooga,tn. i live about 30 min from chattanooga in ga. i had my surgery at erlanger,in chattanooga,tn. it would be nice to have a buddy going through this with me.

i am going to post a recipe that i made tonight in the crock pot. it was really good going down and it would be a great recipe at any stage. look for it guys and lots of love and keep your heads up because the weight is sluffing off of us!!!

hey loser, thanks for the compliment. believe me i don't feel very pretty!! i still feel really fat. i have a great day today and am so glad for that. i am still eating in between meals. i usually eat yogurt, string cheese or a spoonful of peanut butter. food is like a drug and wish my body didn't hang onto food like it does. i work at a hospital in labor and delivery with a bunch of women and most of them can pack it down, and never gain an ounce. i hate these type of women. i also believe we are the stronger sex because weight loss is one of the hardest things that i have ever done. how are you doing with eating and keeping it down-loser?

ready2bhealthy- i am doing really well. glad that i had the surgery. i am down 54# since nov. and i couldn't have kept it off without this little tool in my abdomen. some days are harder than others. today was not a hard day and food stayed down really well.

good mornig ready2bhealthy, we should chat because we have alot in common. i had my surgery 12809 and am doing really good. i am only experiecing acid reflux. i take prilosec twice a day to keep it at bay where i can eat. not everybody has it. hope your surgery goes well. talk later.

hey dawn, are you on clears or full liquids? if you are on clear- i don't have many choices for you other than soups you can see through like broths, popsicles,jello, tea, juices diluted etc. but full liquids you can have more of variety of soups-vegatable beef pureed and strained, tomato, cream soups, pudding, we can have sf ice cream on our diet from my doctor but i don't know about your doctor. yogurt without fruit pieces. if you want a list of what our doctor will let us eat. just let me know.

I had my surgery on 120809 in Chattanooga, TN.

just wanted to let you know you are in my prayers and thought. hoping all is well tonight with you and you are recovering nicely.

hey shontel: when did you have your sleeve done? i have been trying more and more of solid foods but little bites and chewing them to a pulp also. it doesn't feel good sometimes but neither did pureed soups.
