Tanisha Nolen Sanyang

I had my reconstructive surgery at the same place I was sleeved: Puget Sound Surgical Center. I could go on and on and ON about how wonderful that place is, from the surgeons to the nurses, all the way down to the receptionists. On the day after my reconstructive surgery Dr. Harris stopped by MY HOUSE with his nurse to check on me. Unheard of.
I could not stand to NOT do my thighs the way they were. I figured what was the point of having a flat stomach if I wouldn't get in a bathing suit (not a bikini, thankyouverymuch) because of my thighs. I miss swimming. The waterfall of skin running down my thighs had to go. I don't think it added too much to recovery. As far as pain went, stomach hurt the worse BY FAR. A distant 2nd was my thighs and my breasts didn't hurt at all. Dr. Harris said that last one was unusual.

U lok great and I have gain back about 8lbs.im 15months out.i lost a total of 128lbs in 12 months but im jumping rite back into the groove..i feel real bad about my weight gain..it look like I gain 16lbs and I have pics and I rilly look small on them but now I lok at myself and say damn..but it will be ok very soon.

Wen ur new out..try hard to follow guidelines pls..u dont want to get sick..eat and drink intil ur tummy says no ok guys. Ps I luv my sleeve!

I eat wen I feel hungry and thats why u have to make sure wen u go grocery shopping u bye only gud things thats low cal and sugar free. I admit to snaking on candy sumtimes wen its rite in my face so thats the reason I try not to bye junk and bring it home..sumtime I make me a pj sandwich using sugar free jelly and I jave used the regular to but I dont practice it or just the penut butter and low carb bread.it help me with my sweet tooth.. I still have one..lol.im alot better now that I have the sleeve..my hunger isnt great as it was before sleeve..remember everyones body difrnt and u have to do wats comfy for u so I dont put my body on no schedule wen it comes to eating..its not how many times ur eating..its ur food choices..think low cal sugar free oh and exercise and u wil be so fine just as I am.

My weight loss is slow but I am down 28 lbs starting a week before surgery so about 7 weeks. I have decided that I eat so little of food that I am just going to eat what I want and when I want it. I decided that I didn't do this to be on a diet. I wanted to be able to put down the fork when I felt full like a normal person. Which I am now able to do since I have that restriction. Anyway I am only getting about 1000 calories a day and I think I should be able to lose on that, so I am going to try it my way and see how it goes.

Stalls are gud for us sumtimes..i stall to..but wen I start bak losing again..i do excellent..im always eating but wen I do..i eat gud things and another thing I notice is wen I drink my Protein Shakes im less hungrey and I loose more weight that month opose to not drinking my Protein everyday. Im almost to goal and it seems the last few lbs take forever losing but I do get hungry alot but thr key thing is to choose healthyfood and Snacks.< /p>

Hello Everyone, I just found this app today and I'm super excited to be able to read the different journeys u guys have to share. I'm 32 yrs old and work as an Ops Manager at a mortage co...married with 4 beautiful little ladies. I'm 5'2 with a BMI of 69.9....no I didn't make a

typo, 69.9 is correct. I was always told I had a pretty face which wasn't a compliment in my book. As the years went by I didnt want to do anything outside of work....I missed school activities and family gatherings so after this year's family vacation and having to rent a mobile machine to ride through Sea World I knew I had to do something fast or I would continue to get bigger and eventually die. In order to reach my goal weight I'll have to lose around 220 lbs. My surgery date is scheduled for 9.10.12, so pls keep me in your prayers and I'll keep u guys posted on my progress. Thx

Did u guys kno that ur weight can go up or drop down 7lb due to access Water in ur body..ur wait depends on if ur bowls move regular or not and if ur not urinating enough then the scale will read more..I put it to the test..I took a water pill one day and I was 2lbs liter after my pill was infect.. and wen I'm regular wit the bm I'm about 4to 5lbs liter than I was before I did the two things and don't forget to weigh urself nude.
