I haven't had my surgery yet but I can only hope to have this problem. My poor hubby has been so patient since their is just no desire on my end. Hopefully things will be changing soon. Oh, whet does DH stand for, I new to this forum thing.

That's great.

Brag away! That's awesome:) keep going girl! Ur gonna be at goal in no time!!

That is GREAT! Don't push too hard too fast, injury is all too common in the beginning. KEEP IT UP!

Kudos! Do be sure to mind your body and don't overdue it. :-) I did that one day and the next I was very week. Learn from your new tummy.

Great job!

That's wonderful!! Just take it easy because you don't want a set back so soon after surgery.

I walked 4.2 miles today and I am only 2 1/2 weeks out from surgery. it took me 1 hour 49 minutes but I DID IT! I never exercised pre surgery so I am so estatic with myself! i just had to brag a little bit!!!!

The gym thing I totally understand!!! But you know the more weight you lose the more people are going to start cOming up to you and complimenting you! Believe me, I loved talking to the female body builders at my old gym and they were always so helpful with new exercises!
I know it's super hard but you know what- if anyone is looking at you they're going "wow, I'm soooo proud of that person for trying!" gym junkies are happy ppl and happy ppl don't judge like that
The cookie think is awful, but just enjoy the frustration (I know, I'm a weirdo) but - even when you're sleeved you won't be able to eat them for a longtime! And even then they may be too sweet for you and you won't like them! Relive that frustration you felt and use it to remind you why you're doing this! You're doing this so next time there's Cookies baking you will be like a child again- you will be happy to lick a beater or split a cookie with your son!
You know, sometimes I would get soooo obsessed with my food I couldn't dream of sharing it with anyone, I would hide it and eat it in secret so no-one could take it off me, if mum made brownies I couldn't enjoy even one because I sims wanted the whole pan to myself- noone else deserved or wanted them as much as I did!
Your son is still young enough to engage in normal food behaviours! He hasn't experienced deprivation and hasn't developed compulsive or maladaptive eating behaviours! By doing this you are ensuring that he will always feel comfortable sharing his food with you! As others have mentioned in other threads you will probably become a "cheap date" sharing a bit of hubbies and sons meals rather than ordering your own!!!
I'm so excited and proud of you! The sleeve is to stop you eating and eating but even without it, even for that one moment you worked your mind! You have started an incredie journey! I'm so proud of you and I know your son and hubby are too!!!

my dr told me that my hair may get thin if I don't get all my Protein in. try to up your protein and see if it helps

Hi!! I was sleeved on September 12. I weighed at home the morning of my surgery and was 324, this is day 4 since surgery and I got on the the scale this morning and weighed 314!!! I was SHOCKED!!!

I've been a member of Lifetime Fitness for years. Would go in spurts - some spurts longer than others. I'm now almost 7 weeks postop and I just started going back last week. I joined TEAM Weightloss, which is a small group of people (there are about 5-6 woman in my group) and we meet 3 times a week with a personal trainer, and also a dietician weekly. It's a 12 week long program. So far it's been kicking my butt. But I love it!

I was also sleeved on Thursday. I had a hard time getting my liquids in. Just keep sipping... I slept so much it was hard to get it in. It is much easier for me today.
I am feeling fantastic!! How about you?

DH = Darling Husband
If you're anything like me, you'll be (as the title of this thread states) a horny lil toad LOL! They say that fat blocks the hormones, so I guess with the weight loss my hormones are running around having a party inside of me. That's fine by me. Just wish I could get my rocks off... Sorry, TMI...

U might get information at ur next appointment about it? I wasn't told anything by my doctor, but just got an email from his assistant telling me about it.

Dr Kim!

That is ridiculous! it is amazing what you have done. i am sorry that no one in your life has commented on it. I am having my surgery on 9-6 and if no one comments on my hard work i would be upset too. thankfully their are others out there that can et you know you have done a wonerful job. keep up the har work
