  4. Thank you! I really haven't exercised ive gone on a couple walks here and there but don't have a gym membership. My weight loss has slowed down a lot so im getting a membership this week. I think doing this in my twenties has helped with the weight loss too.
  5. Hi everyone, this is my first post and I'm a little nervous but here goes!! I had my surgery on January 1 2013 and at my biggest i was 295. I had a really easy time with the surgery, no troubles at all! now almost 9 months out I weigh 190! I still want to loose 40 more.
  6. Thank you! you are too best wishes on your surgery!
  7. And I didn't have any complications or side effects. I still get heart burn which sucks. I was released the day after my surgery, barely any pain, no gas pain. I was up and walking around right after I woke up from anesthesia. I think I stayed in bed for three days then I felt like I was ready to get back to house work. I guess a side effect would be I'm always cold but it's an easy fix!
  8. I have adjusted pretty well, I still feel like I need to eat at night. Most of the time I'll eat like a mini bag of popcorn when I feel like that. I wake up and drink a protein shake in the morning and by lunch time I'm pretty hungry. I really like cheese, it's easy to eat and it doesn't hurt. So I'll eat a cheese stick with some turkey or chicken. And dinners I make normal things for my family and eat what I can. I'm still doing good with my portion sizes. I have not been the perfect patient, i do go out on the weekends and have drinks and I have been getting into the Halloween candy but I think it's ok to enjoy every now and then. As for my pre weight loss, I lost 20 pounds. I wasn't required to loose weight I was just supervised by the doctor for 6 months. She put me on phentermine, and it helped me loose weight but it made me really mean and short tempered. Overall I'm so happy with my results, now I really need to step it up and work out more and make sure I get in all my protein. Thank you all for your nice comments!
  9. Thank you! I have not done anything special to help my skin I think just working out had helped it go back
  10. Thank you guys! I havent had any problems with my skin it went back to normal on my stomach I might have a little on my arms when i loose the rest but hopefully working out will help tighten them up.
