  4. I've lost 55 lbs in 3.5 months and I'm 5' 3". I'm very happy with my loss. I think you're doing great as well. Word of advise, never compare your journey or loss to anyone elses. We are all so different and no two journeys will ever be the same. Be proud of every single pound lost. You've worked hard for it no matter the time it takes to lose it...fast, slow or average. Keep up the good work.

  9. I also wore those tight full leg stockings they made me wear for surgery, to prevent blood clots. Works great for high altitudes.

  11. I PROMISE YOU this will pass quickly. I had a leak and even still, would do this again. I'm 3 months post-op and 54 lbs down. Worth every single moment, both good and bad. This will be your life saver just as it is mine. Word of advise, ditch the protein for now. You need to focus on getting your clear liquids in and staying hydrated before you work on protein. I couldn't and still can't stomach plain water. I highly recommend Mio. It's much better than Crystal Light. Keep your chin up. You can, AND WILL, do this.
  12. My suggestion....don't walk at all. Get them to wheel you around the airport as soon as you get in, on and off the plane. Only walk to get to the bathroom. And don't carry your own bags. They will do that for you too. You don't want to over do it. Once in the airport and past security, I purchased a couple of bottles of juice for the plane. Then when I transfered, I bought another for the second plane ride.

  15. Likely not a leak. I had mine at almost 3 weeks out and that was late, so 4 months seems not likely.

  17. Congratulations!!!! I'm 3 months post-op and 53 lbs down. I recently made it to Onederland myself. I'm 197 as of this morning. We rock!!
  18. Zip lining, hiking, playing at the playground with my baby, walking, buying clothes I like and looking good in them and of course, more fun in the bedroom!!!
  19. Smooth Move Tea....tastes good and works wonderful. I use it about once a week. You can find it in the grocery stores tea isle.
  20. Yah, I'm pretty happy with my results!
  21. I've lost 53 lbs so far. Have 37 to go to reach my first goal.
