No game

Come on girlie, you are going through a rough time. We all have gone through them. It just sounds like you have a lot of them piled up at once right now.. I'm sorry to hear about your pain and your brother... I lost my brother several years back and I still miss him daily. Now is not the time to take a break especially if this is your main means of support. We all have good and bad days here and support each other. So don't feel like you are taking because I'm sure you are giving too

You could probably pick up a used one on Craigslist for a couple of hundred.. I used to hate my recumbent bike, but I'm liking it more and more these days.

Hey butter I got a delivery today but it had your name on it??? Did you order a new top???

Nope!

If you like pre made premier Protein Shakes are good 30 grams protein and 160 calories. At one year out though you can easily get your protein from foods. Unless you like taking a shake for a meal that is.

Hey, hey now! they don't pay me enough around here to know everything....

Here I am to save the day!!!!!!! NOT! Ummm.... Not sure why if you were doing good that it changed so suddenly... The usually suspects would be a stricture but it could also be just part of the fun of healing. I never threw up but for the first two months I would get times where I just felt nauseous on certain days... See no help

Protein and veggies! You can't go wrong! The sleeve can stretch but not back to its original size so if you stick to dense protein that should keep you satisfied. Why the ensure drink? That more of a meal replacement rather than a protein supplement

Oh that first month mark is notorious for anger and depression. I think in the first few weeks you are dealing with pain and healing. Now the real work sets in.. I really feel that this sadness and anger is us mourning food. Your old friend food is no longer there to medicate those feelings of anger frustration, despair and boredom. You are left to your own devices and need to come up with other ways to deal with life. Talking it out with friends and a counselor really helped me. And also knowing this is a really normal phase made me not feel so crazy.

I tend to agree with the poster above.. Besides being a major surgery it is a major lifestyle change, one that should not be necessarily rushed into. The classes really help people prepare for those changes and gives you the opportunity to start implementing small changes as you go. Instant gratification is not always what it seems.. not to mention it is part of the reason a lot of us ended up here... Mexico is a last choice for a lot of people that do not have insurance coverage, so why put yourself behind the eight ball by financing something that your insurance offers already? .

Ohio??? Meh.... You can have it!

Good news! Life without cheese though... is not a life worth living! (Kinda like Oreos) It sounds like your stomach and digestive system is on the mend though. So yay!

She's just jealous because they eat things like bangers and spotted d**k....

Lol brown. We see you our attention spans are short though Oh yes that dreaded exercise between you and I?? I HATE it But I try to get some in everyday because damn if it doesn't help (a little)

Ok looked it up.... ming Verb. To smell or look unpleasant. E.g."Yearghh, that's disgusting! It mings in here! Which one of you has farted?" GIRL GET OFF MY THREAD! I will tolerate a lot around here. But I draw the line at dissing an American CLASSIC!!!

Ok let me google that before I come back and talk crap to you... Brb

Hey revs, how's the gut today??? Sorry to hear about the incompetence of your surgeon. You are right though they usually look for the surgical way out!

Oh hi brown! Yep I'm going out of town this weekend for a wedding... Food and drink oh my! Cathy glad your husband is doing well. And Jane! You are such a strong woman, I know what you are going through is hard (and painful) But you are handling it like nobody's business!

Oh my lots going on here! Skinniness don't be down you are skinny. But I know being down sometimes isn't always about our weight.. Georgia throwing up? Ugh I wonder if it was just stress of the day also? Take care.. Cathy, Portugal? Such an exciting life you have! We go nowhere exciting it seems.. Swizzly, hang on there.. Thyroids can be tricky Daisy, 139??? Yay! (And jealous) Coops, I hope your headaches are over.. Clk, I'm glad you hormones are evening out again. It's so hard already without having your hormonal balance thrown off!! Glad to see you today Yes it's hard to catch up! I've been gone today and it's a lot off updates! So you just need to come back more often Yes were is sweetums??? Ok went to bed actually hungry last night... Still holding steady at 152.

Sadly they are banned in my house too. I cannot be trusted! sleeve or no sleeve I'm sure I can still take them down if left alone...

Ok 10 more down today 63 total to date...

You mean I could of just fed my husband bacon instead of getting a tubal ligation???
