Wow! What a difference!!

I've had 2 experiences of "dumping", once when I ate a banana and once when I had 2 glasses of wine.

I am so sorry for your loss! Certainly do what you need to do to grieve and be good to yourself and lean on your husband, family and friends.

I can related to you! I just found out that I am PG (totally unplanned/thought we were done surprise)- and I have my 6 month check this thurs... not even sure how far along I am but I've lost almost 75... I really really really hope I only gain 1 pound!! I gained 60 and 70 with my 2 previous pregnancies!

Thanks everyone! We are happy, it just was not in the life plans. We have 2 already and I have given away all my baby stuff. In the back of my mind maybe I did want one more but i'm in my late 30's and was not sure I'd have the energy for another tiny one... its all good though, we'll figure it out. For the record, the doctor didn't warn me!! Hopefully I can help get the word out here for others who didn't know.

I started to deal with anxiety and anger after a few months actually - I was told its about the loss of hormone receptors that are in your stomach that disrupts the mood for a while. knowing that helped me to deal, then I tried some medications which helped level me out. It takes a while for the body to adjust.

Apparently women become very fertile - or at least I did... My six month post-op appt is next thursday and I have to tell him that I'm pregnant! Whooops!!! I think he is going to be mad - I'm scared.

OMG! Awesome!! Congrats. How are you feeling??

A good friend of mine had the LBL and arms at the same time - it was hell for her and she had to hire a nurse to help her with daily care... I have not had anything, but from her experience I would say option 1.

Kristie - Awesome work in weight loss!!! I'm curious why you choose this one over say a lower body lift? I'm just trying to educate myself here... thanks

Kids first! What is a corset trunkplasty? off to google..

What do you mean by eating "clean" exactly?? I have heard this before but am not sure what it means.

Keep up the great work!!! You mentioned needing Jillian for the head part - maybe its time to find a good therapist to work on the psychology stuff...

I have yet to try rice - I am scared from all the negative chat on it here. I have yet to try corn too - seems like it would be hard to digest. I also worry about the corn chips - they call those slider foods. You can certainly still do foods with this type of flavor though... might take a while to get back to this actual recipe.

I would feel like crap if I didn't eat either. Find some good high protein foods that satisfy you!
