  1. I feel your pain! My hubby eats way more than me & although he is TRYING to eat healthier...he does snack at night & he's keeping right up with my weight loss! I say the same thing to him...it's not fair....I got 85% of my stomach cut off & he still looses as fast or faster!! Oh well, like ^^^ said...at least we're loosing!!
  2. I get mine at Sam's...about $19
  3. It's totally normal! This is the beginning of your new life! Good luck!
  4. I love this site...but I will not pay for ANY site!
  5. I have been dizzy lately too! Heaven forbid if I look up!! :-/
  6. Some insurances do, you just have to check with yours!
  7. I never had any trouble eating anything! Just take it slow & easy...you will learn your limits & when to stop.
  8. Wow! You had surgery at 159? I WISH I was 159! :-/
  9. I did not have a drain tube!
  10. Just keep reassuring him that you love him & aren't going anywhere! My hubby & I have been married since I was 15 (I'm 52 now), deep down he knows I'm not going anywhere..but it is nice to see him jealous sometime! He is loosing right along with me, so I just always remember to tell him how sexy he looks & I love him! Guys like to hear those things too! & I personally do not keep these things to myself...we have learned its better to be open. We live in a small town & there are always someone around who knows someone..if he heard it from someone else it would be way worse.
  11. Hubby's still fuming! Loving it!! Lol
  12. No, I politely declined...then ran home & texted everyone I knew!!!! Lol
  13. I got asked out today!! Made my day...but hubby wasn't too happy when I told him!!! :-P
  14. Liquids are much easier than dense proteins.
  15. Mine was very short, about 15 min. But I have heard others saying they had to take tests...so guess it just depends on your evaluator.
  16. I've had stalls...but not Long stalls. It all evens out. Don't want to eat junk just to up calories.
  17. Girl, I'm 5 months post op & can't get in 1000 calories...even when I cheat!
  18. I know how you feel...I'm close, & u would know it...this close & hit a stall!! :-/
  19. I don't think I will ever have that issue Amy....wish I did though! :-/
  20. I'm 5 months too 12/17...I'm at another stall! :-(. But this too shall pass! Like they said....it didn't come on over night...not going to come off overnight either! I'm wearing clothes I haven't worn in ten yrs...so I'm happy...just as long as the scale moves in the right direction!
  21. I slept on my tummy the second night.
  22. Has anyone in Texas had surgery with this? My Niece is on it & can't seem to find a surgeon who takes it?
