WTH? Protein protein protein!!! Eat every couple of hours if you need to. Just make sure it is protein. Stay away from fast food. It will eventualy kill you even if you are sleeved. You can puree any meat with a sauce or light gravy. Go to the site the worldaccordingto eggface.com. She has great suggestions and recipes for every stage. Good luck and remember protien first before anything. That helps curb your appetite.

I was just reading info on the post being resleeved( I think that one) and there was some info done on like 57 people and some their weight came back some had to get the DS. Im just wondering what will happen to us. Will the hunger hormone come back, did the dr remove enough of my fundus?
I actually scared myself while reading that info. I dont want to have surgery again.

Alcohol kills and its legal. Pot doesnt kill and its illegal. Why, for the life of me I can not understand. I dont smoke and I sure in the hell dont drink. If I had to choose between the two it would be pot!

Aussie reading your story just broke my heart. I feel the same as most on here. What broke the camels back for me was realizing that I just didnt love myself anymore. I had given up on losing weight and on life really. One day I woke up and remembered that my family loves and needs me nomatter what I weigh. I knew it was time to really do something about it. So that someday I will be here for when I have grand children and when 2 of my children get married. Also for my husband, I promised him we would grow old together.

Thank you for putting this on here. Im better today. You put 2 great role models on here for me to follow. I must say following you also with your success will help me as well.

Everyone looks great! Congratulations.

Get ahold of your surgeon or pcp soon. You don't want to become dehydrated and end up in the hospital. Good luck and keep us updated.

In my mind, sudden changes in how you handle food and drink, especially if they are for the worse, mean call your surgeon for input and advice. It may be nothing, it may resolve itself within a few days, but it could signify a problem and he's the expert who can help you figure it out. Good luck!

What state are you in? I have always dreamed of living in a place like yours! Lucky you!

I beg your pardon for the title but a young person of the male gender (won't refer to him as a man since that implies a level of maturity that he obviously doesn't possess) hollered at me whilst I was riding my bike "you have a saggy ass so you better move it!" Although it is true that I have a saggy ass and many other saggy body parts, I've gotten complacent I guess about fitting in with regular, non-obese, folks and was rather taken aback. Having been obese and for my entire life I have been on the receiving end of many a cruel remark or look of disgust, pointing, stares, snickering, even unwanted groping, more times than I can count, sometimes from members of my own family. I usually turned the other cheek and went on my way. Today, however, I found myself boiling over with anger. I caught up to said young person of the male gender at a stop light and yelled at him "my saggy ass is better than your flat dick!" Then I stood up on the pedals and rode furiously away. I'm feeling a bit ashamed of myself for stooping so low.

Im not sure where you are from, but here in Texas Dr. David Kim is doing surgeries for the summer for 4900 without insurance. Im not sure but I believe it's the sleeve. He is a great surgeon , has done I believe over 6000 sleeve surgeries. Good luck hope you find the best surgeon for you!

I believe so much has to do with your surgeon. RNY was tough on me too. Then last year I went to a different PS and had my arms done, and breast done with a lower face/neck lift. I had such horrible pain I couldn't believe it. But I knew I wanted and needed the lower body lift, so this year when I went looking for a new surgeon to do that, I found my new surgeon, he told me his patients usually do not experience any pain, I was like yea right, I know better, then after this major surgery he was right I felt no pain. When I asked him how that could be he told me it's all in how a surgeon handles the tissue and also the fact that he doesn't allow his patients to bleed, all that leads to a very mild recovery. So this is why I say it depends on your surgeon, it seemed to work for me...I was very pleased with my mild and uneventful recovery!

So hey found this

Measure your writ and elbow size and voila
It also says that bones weigh 15% of your total weight. So I think your docs office needs to use better math skills

me actually getting on the camel and breaking his back. lol

We have a little stand across the street from us that does this amazing birthday cake snow cone that's sugar free. It's my go-to and SO good!!
