Im 5 1/2 months out and still cant eat it. I use to put salsa on everything eggs, porkchops, fried potatos and so on. I also use to eat jalepenos with fried chicken cant do that anymore either. All hot and spicey makes me really sick vomiting andsevere acid reflux. Becareful try very little to start like maybe a couple of drops on your tongue first and go from there. Good luck

My liquid didnt go so well either. I promise to do better tomorrow! We got this Laura I know we can do this.

I need a motivational speaker(sp) lol.

My eyes cant stop crying! It feels like my heart is being ripped out of my chest. Those poor babies.

Please everyone pray for these families who have lost their children. 24 third grade children have gone to be with the Lord today. They drowned in the basement at the elementary shool while seeking shelter from the F-5 tornado. Oklahoma needs all the prayers they can get. My ex sister in law and my neice and her daughter live there in Morre, Ok, thank God they are ok. Lost everything but they are alive. So please if you can find a minute or two pray for the people of Oklahoma.

I walked for about 30 minutes. Still working on protein. Tomorrow will be better.

Yes we got this. I figured first thing in the morning 24oz of Water along with 1 protien shake and start walking. And I will figure it out snack and lunch when I get back. We CAN and WILL do this! !!!

Im here. Lol. Im reading everything everyone has posted. Im trying to write out a plan for eating and what I should eat and drink. Im starting to go walking in the morning for at least an hour and then raise it next week to 30 minutes to hour more. I appreciate each and everyone of you. You all are my true VST family. Thank you

The TDEE calculator said to consume 2062 calories with 1 gram of protein per lb I weigh. Thats alot of protein. 202 grams wow.

Ok Im gonna try everything suggested. Laura you maybe a slug, bu Im a boulder and cant move lol. I just need to figure out where to start.

I weigh 202lbs height 5'3 1/2. I get about 1000 calories and Im lazy lol. I do housework everyday and on the weekends I mow the lawn and some gardning.

Im wondering how to reset my metabolism. I know I need more calories and excersize, I just dont know where to begin. Any info would be greatly appreciated.

Maybe use some skin bleaching? I would ask the doctor forsure. Or maybe google skin darkining.

110 to 120 for my height 5'3. I would like to weigh about 135. Started at 256lbs.

I used dr kim he is a great surgeon, but to me and my family he liked bedside manner. I only got to meet him once and that was on the day I first decided to have surgery. He was there to make sure I had chose the right surgeon. As for aftercare I have only gone to the one week follow up. I did not see him again after surgery at the hospital or that day in his office. I had no complications with the surgery so far. I believe its your choice in what you are expecting from the surgeon as in bedside manner or aftercare. I was sleeved on 12/4/12. He nor his staff has even once tried to get a hold of me, to see how things are going and that I am doing ok. This is just my opinion.

:-)

Pictures? Im needing to get reduction and lift as well. Im afraid they will look hideous(sp). Ive lost 60 lbs so far 40lbs to go. I am so happy for you. Congratulations

I am soooo happy for you! To me and alot others you are one of the greastest supporters on here. I am so greatful you didnt leave us. And you know what, its about time they reconized you as being a great role model for everyone on here. Thank you from all your friends for the unconditional support you give.

Im so happy for you. Anytime you need someone to listen Im here. Just PM me.

Wondering which shoes would be best?

Laura is right. I have left a few months ago for these reasons and I have to say I might as well be leaving again. Nothing has changed one bit. Things have been out of control for the past 6 months since I have been on here. Im sure they were probably the same before. Its a shame no one stops these post from getting to the point that people decide to leave because of the harsh judgements and name calling. I am no angel that is for sure , but I would never come on here and say that everyone is a liar if they dont agree with what I say or believe, and then have someone who supposably works for or is a rolemodel for this sight to concur with the person who is belittling everyone. I hope for the sake of new people who join or even the ones who have been here awhile that someone who is in charge will step in and stop these verbaly abusive people from ruining this forum and losing very informative and helpful people. So for now goodluck to all.

Ya know what to be honest WHO THE f**k CARES!!! This thread is sooo fucked up with small minded people who cant see that some people are sick and tired of other people judging them. IT DOES NOT make them a pedifile, rapest,child molester, murderer or anything in that catagory! So the few of you who have a problem with people not telling everyone their business get a life and stop judging us. Nosey ass folks thats what you all are! Its none of yours or anyone elses business damnit. Go talk to each other and tell your oh so truths. Thats it Im done with these so called truth thumping people.

I love when people are chronic liars, they actually believe what they lie about is the truth. And to them we are the liars. Lol some people are so full of sh*t.

Ok this thread has went way out of control! If you are willing to tell people about your surgery then please do so. If you feel its none of anyones business that is your right. Thats why there are the Hippa laws now. We have the right not to disclose our info if we feel its no ones business. That is a fact with all medical and law professions in America and also in most churches. You always can plead the 5th Amendment that is your right as an American. For those who want to tell the world you had WLS more power to you. With all the advertising on billboards, tv and radio commercials people already know that there is help out there if they desire to get the help. This is 2013 everything is advertised these days you dont have to find out from another person about WLS. You can google anything and find out.
