What was your monthly weightloss?
SouthernSleever replied to june13sleever's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
You can see mine in my signature. As for month 10 I still have 3 days to go and I've lost 6 lbs. -
10 months out, 100 lbs down, with pics!
SouthernSleever replied to SouthernSleever's topic in Weight Loss Surgery Success Stories
Thank you for all the wonderful replies. I'm seriously smiling from ear to ear I was in a size 22/24 and they were tight. The jeans in that pic are 11 juniors I wear a 10/12 depending on the maker of the pants. Size medium or large in shirts (depending on the boob area). That shirt, which i adore, wouldn't button in the boob area which is why you can see my bra. I think size 8 will be goal clothes wise for me. Pre op **** 10 months Pants 22/24 **** 10/12 Shirts xxl **** M/L Bra 44F **** 36 D Panties 9 **** 6 Shoes 10w **** 9 1/2 Reg I'm still pretty stoked about going to victoria secret and getting a matching bra and panties set when we have the funds. I've never ever ever worn anything from VS. -

SouthernSleever replied to laladotdot's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
Shoot pig out but the week before surgery go LOW LOW carb and get that fat off your liver, you dont want any complications. -

I had a PE back in 2003 and I went with the copper (no horomones) IUD and I LOVE LOVE LOVE it! -
How many times and for how long were ur stalls?
SouthernSleever replied to Loooou's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
What you are eating looks good however I wouldn't include popsicles as anything but a treat. Sure they count toward fluids but they do nothing nutritionally for you. I would add in some veggies or fruits as you are bound to get constipated on that diet. Maybe have a hard boiled egg for a snack instead of popsicle or some peices of fruit. -

SouthernSleever replied to LilMissDiva Irene's topic in Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery

5 days post op... white tongue?
SouthernSleever replied to smacbeth's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
It's not ketosis it's thrush. Eat some unsweetened yogurt, take probiotics, and get some mouthwash from your Doctor. No biggie. -

You aren't eating enough. Up your protien and calories and watch that weight drop faster than a drunk chick at a frat party. -
When people starting treating you nicer
SouthernSleever replied to USMCwifeandTEACHER's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Oh yes, I get treated so differently even by family. I know that they loved me but it's like how anmals and people in general tend to shy away from creatures who are dying and we were. If someone was sad and unhappy and it showed externally, like it does with us fat people, then you would find those people excluded more often. Since our major reason for being live is to reproduce I think a lot of the Men folk have it ingrained in their head to try to lure the women who would give them the best offspring which is not someone who is obese. I am just happy being on the other side and I always make it a point to be extra nice to those struggling with weight issues. -
Woke up choking on acid!!
SouthernSleever replied to kellyw74's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Happened to me all the time around month 6. Do not eat 2 hours before bed. Lay low on fluids an hour before bed. Take your PPI the same time everyday and have tums on hand. I'm 10 months out and it's pretty much stopped. -
Am I being a brat?
SouthernSleever replied to CultLogic's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I wouldn't say you are being a brat however the big holdup seems to be the class you missed. I would call the office and ask if there is another way you can make it up, perhaps meeting 1 on 1 with a nutritionist or tell them you will be on call anytime they have a cancel. Call the day of ever meeting and see if you can nudge your way in. If you want you could call your surgeon's office and just say, "I'm a little perplexed at the speed things are going. If I were to change surgeons at this point would have to start all over?" They might tell you yes just so you won't change but it also might kick their ass into gear. Also call around and ask some other surgeons what would happen if you did switch. -
DEFECTIVE SLEEVE?????
SouthernSleever replied to italianlady13's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
On another note I wouldn't go for fat free, your body needs the fat but the mashpotatoes gotta go and so do icecreams fatfree or not! -
Eating Slowly
SouthernSleever replied to Bryn Dawson's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I don't eat slow now nor have I ever. I did measure my food carefully when I was first out so I didn't overeat (thougth I still did sometimes and got the slimes). Anyway it's not that big of a deal IMO -
FINALLY I figured out what was going on!
SouthernSleever replied to mp8btpc's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Hey girlie! Good to hear from you! I was on pain killers for ankle surgery in 03 and straight got addicted to them as in when I stopped taking them I would go through shakes and sweats and nausea. I stopped taking them but it sure does make you realize a little of what an addict goes through. I gained quite a bit of weight drurring that time too. Keep in touch we miss you! -
I don't mind, I'm sure a lot of work goes into maintaining a site. THOUGH I will say having to log in everytime i come to the page is on my last nerve.

SouthernSleever replied to wendy1974's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
No, go back to liquids and give your sleeve a rest. Broths or shakes. -

What is the one significant thing in your life that you can do now...
SouthernSleever replied to LilMissDiva Irene's topic in Weight Loss Surgery Success Stories
Shop in the regular women's section. I have been in plus sized since middle school. I cross my legs without thinking about it. I love to have my picture taken. I'm able to live my life without what I'm eating that day (ooo i can have doughnuts in the morning) consuming my thoughts. I don't daydream in the same way. I used to always dream bout being thin, what I would sacrafice if I could have one wish, I don't do that anymore. It's freeing.
