Congrats! You look fantastic! I can't wait til I can say "goal"!

Hi SexyMama....It sure does sound like this is right for you. You've been doing your research (and have found this website full of helpful information). Just keep in mind that you are an individual and what happened with your sister doesn't mean that you will have the same complications. I wish you the best with the surgery.

okay....I must be dense because I don't get it

Welcome! It's one of the best decisions you'll ever make. Hope you get approved!

I use a baby spoon and then I eat no more than a half spoon at a time....good luck.

My doctor told me it was ok to take nsaids as long as it's not on a consistent basis since it could irritate the stomach. If you're feeling fine, then it's probably ok. Just keep the Tylenol and Excedrin far far away from each other

Enjoy that massage! I'm sure it's a well deserved one.

So maybe what Dr. Oz is saying is that everything is okay as long as its in moderation.

So far no regrets at all. Now, if I don't lose all the extra weight or if I can't maintain the weight, then there may be some regrets. Just wish I knew about the sleeve sooner.

Friday evening, I visited a friend with a broken ankle. We're sitting there chatting and watching tv. I looked down at my lap and realized that I had my legs crossed and my hands weren't holding my legs or pants to keep my legs crossed. Nice feeling!

How about non-fat greek yogurt? I was able to have that as part of my full liquid diet.

It will be before you know it....good luck.

welcome and I hope you get your May 6th date!

have you tried using a baby spoon? I use a baby spoon and only eat about 1/4 - 1/3 of a baby spoonful at a time

try something warm to see if that helps.

Good for you! Very informative letter without any hostility. As you can see, I would not be good and writing such a letter.

Looking good! My eyes zoomed in on the lobster tail.....wish I had some lobster now....may have to talk hubby into taking me to Red Lobster this weekend.

Congrats! You're looking great!

That's how much the surgery cost was. So glad my insurance covered it all after my $5 copay

maybe try getting in a cup of fluids before you attempt to eat....good luck

Yea, I can totally relate. I'm still working on figuring out when I've eaten too much.

Get lots of rest and I hope Tuesday is still your day! Good luck!

Yep, I say you're on the right track. That's great weight loss! I mix up what I do. I walk at different times of the day (since I don't go back to work til April 1, due to hand surgery a week and a half ago) and different distances. I also increase calories about 2 times a week and I drink at least 9 cups of water a day. I'm trying to not let my body get into a routine and think it's time to stall and hold onto the fat/fluids. This is after my stall broke about a week ago. Keeping my fingers crossed that I don't hit another stall any time soon.

Good luck with the surgery and I hope you have a speedy recovery.

Hope you get approved quickly!
