grats!!! I have about 26 lbs to go to get myself to onederland lol

I have lost 50 /bs so far and right now I really look forward to being able to run and jump. They seem such simple things but It physically hurts to run and jump. My fat and my boobs make it really hard to do that. So i look forward to in the future after I have lost most the weight, trying for the breast reduction and tummy tuck.

Me and my sister both had ours done on the same day. My mom and dad drove us there and checked us in and visited before the surgery and were there after to see us in our rooms but they couldn't stay at hospital with us so they stayed at hotel till next morning when we were released. My hubby had to watch my kids, but boy did I really want him there. It is much better to have someone to stay with you.

I am from Natchez,MS but I had mine done with Dr. Bellanger in Baton Rouge,LA and he is THE BEST!!!!!! it has been 4 months since my operation and with no complications at all

ty all for the advice. I will try to add some more exercise and I do need to watch sometimes what I eat. For the most part I do really good. I hope all the walking I do in Disney World in 4 days will help lol

I am wondering about some advice to help with a stall, I have lost about 43 lbs in 3 months, and I am hoping that is really good. But I am kinda stalled now and don't know what to do. I go to the gym sometime 2 times a week. But just not seeing a major difference. Any advice???

I look forward to linking in the mirror and just seeing where the weight is coming off. So much to go that with what weight is gone I just can't see it. I also look forward to being able to really shop in the stores and not online. One big one for me is also when i fold laundry or pack my clothes they are not so overwhelming. Being so big its like 2 of my shirts is like 4 of normal ones. They are so heavy to hold and to wear. One reason I cant stand jackets, you put ur clothes on then it and ur like suffocating cause how heavy everything is. We have DisneyWorld in about 38 days and hoping to lose more weight to be able to actually buy clothes there and get on most rides. We went in June of 2011 and was not able to fit most rides. Even stood in line with hubby,son, and niece for 1 and half got to the ride finally only to be pulled out of line and told I cant fit. I was in tears from embarrasement and mad at myself for the weight I was. It was defiantely an eye opener.

ty for the help it worked!!

was trying to fix my Ticker on here, anyone tell me where to put my code in at to show up on my signature???

Thank you all again for the comments, It defiantely made me feel better lol. I go the 25th of January for my next post op visit and am excited to see what their lovely scales weigh me in at lol

I know that alot of people have said that SPANX is great for tighting up those bad places. you can try that

Thank you all for the great words. Just wanted to make sure I was doing right. Yall are so wonerful and thank you again

I am wondering if 36 lbs lost in 2 months is good. My scales weigh me more than the doctors WONDERFUL scales lol so am not positive and it could be a few lower who knows. Sometimes I feel like I am not losing the right amount, so I am seeing if anyone else can tel me if I am on the right track. I finally bought my first REAL pants a week ago. Only have been able to fit into stretchy jeans that were wayyy to big in the leg and butt areas. And some shirts feel a little easier going on. I just can't wait till i can really see the difference for myself. You are your own worst judge.

I had shoulder pain for a few weeks after surgery as well, I just couldn't figure it out. It only hurt when i would sleep though, really weird. But then it just went away.

I went to my 2 week apt. post op and loss 18 1/2 pounds, now a week later i have lost like a pound. Is theere anything wrong with that or not normal? Not sure what is wrong I have been going to the gym as much as my schedule lets me and not barely eating anything cause I get so full so easily. If anyone has any advice or something please let me know I am so confused and worried bout losing the weight

Well went yesterday for my 2 week apt with the nutrionist and got on her magic scales lol I have lost 18 1/2 pounds and 12lbs of fat mass. I was so excited. Still wish it would have been more but time will bring me more pounds gone lol. Just had to share. Fastest I have ever lost weight in any of my years of different dieting.

I also would love to hear the replies if any has had them done and how it all went.

ty all for the advice

Ok I am wondering about how the weight thing works? I am doing way better on getting alot of my protein in me and tommorrow is my first day for solid foods like eggs and such. I was wondering if it helps the weight come off better if u get your recommended amount of protein in? Does it hurt the weight coming off if ur not getting the right amount? was just curios about that? so far lost about 16 lbs in 13 days. I hope that is good. I have heard of others with like 20 and 30 lbs taken off in thier 2 weeks so I wasn't sure.

ty all for the help and advice

My doctor sent me home with liquid pain meds but my nasuea meds was pill form so I assume as long as they are real small it would be ok

ty all for the help, today is day three and I have been eating the Jello and broth, tommorrow i should be starting the shakes and I hope that goes well and I can get in more of my protien. Hopefully the vanilla Cake Batter flavor is good lol I have been making sure to drink tons of Water and slip in some protien, it sure takes alot of getting used to. Though if i could just sleep on my side it wouldnt be so bad lol. It wont be long now I know.

I am 2 days post op and my stomach hurts I can't turn over to sleep on side but I guess I am handling that ok but what I am concerned is that I can't seem to get enough of the protien in.. I am drinking the chicken broth and alot of Water.. is that ok? I know after 3 days i don't have to be on that whey crap anymore, I also have some sharp pains that likerise up then disappear? not sure what that is about. But for the most part i am doing ok. Just ready to be on the shakes. Also taking meds by liquid...ewww lol I have more sympathy for my kids now when i give them thier liquid meds lol... Hope someone has a bit of advice

Ty all we are both in car and on way home! Can't wait for my own bed and family.
