Great job!!

These look great!! Thanks for sharing!

36F, he is convinced it has excellent results with fewer complications. So far, at least in my case, he is right!

You are beautiful!!! Congrats on all your hard work!

I did wonder that, especially when I hit a stall last week. WHen it ended, and the pounds just fell off, I was amazed. Now, I just really don't think about food. It doesn't seem to rule my brain. I think that is what helps this tool work!

I hated the Isopure with a passion. I know some on here love it though!

I was told I could take a bath, swim, whatever at 2 weeks post op. I have been swimming twice and taken a few baths. No infection here. I think as long as your incisions are closed, it is safe. The only thing my doc cautioned me on was working my abs... no doing that until six weeks out! Hope this helps.

Awesome!!! What an inspiration!

You look wonderful!! What a transformation! Thanks for being such a motivation!

I am doing well also. I can only eat at a max 1/3cup at a time of anything though. They only thing I have had issue with is a spicy Indian dish. I have NO IDEA why I even tried that.... I am walking about 2-3 miles a day, swimming, and doing upper and lower body weight lifting. I am not allowed to work my core yet.

YAY!! I am glad your surgery went well! See... you survived!! No worries about leaving yoru kids now! You will be healthy and happy and around for a looong time! Blessings and speedy recovery!! It gets better every day!!

It gets easier I promise. It will help your liver be in good shape and reduce your carb cravings. I know it sucks but you can do it and you will be glad you did!!

I had a hernia repair with the VSG and I think it definintely added to my pain. In fact, it MAY have been the majority of it. I wouldn't let the fear of the pain from surgery scare anyone away from having it done. The pain is temporary but the weight loss is worth it.

Your liver likes to store carbs and sugar. I would recommend doing a low fat/low carb diet for at least a week. That way your liver will be depleted of its sugar stores and be nice and flat for surgery.

"I affectionately smiled at my adorable husband, and said " you can stop hiking your leg on my thigh". That night we had a long discussion about my weight loss, and I point blank told him "I'd leave you fat too!" " That is toooo funny!!! Sounds like something I would say! I wouldn't worry too much about the Acai supplements. I agree with a PP, give him a hug and tell him you love hima nd appreciate his concern.
