  1. it is nearly two years for me... and i am really off track. i swore that i would never be this person that would do the surgery and then go back to how i use to eat.. guess i am not who i thought i was. i am that person. i am so made at myself. i need to bet back on track.. is it too late for me? did i stretch my stomach so bad that i don't have the benefit of my sleeve anymore? i need serious help.
  2. i am so sorry to hear about your loss... i will pray for you... i haven't been on hear in a long time and i am so surprised to hear this devastating news... I hope God will heal your heart.
  3. I would get in touch with the surgeon as the painless doesn't sound right.. just to be on the safe side. Good luck.

  13. Last January i went on a cruise... i wasn't sleeved yet... i really enjoyed the cruise but felt somewhat conscious about my weight. i wasn't able to do as the others did on the cruise because of the weight. one thing they did was rockwall climbing. i have never done that but i had to decline doing it cause i just could never have held my weight. even dancing was a struggle and i do love to dance. This december i am going on another cruise and so looking forward to it... i have a good portion of weight off now and i am excited to see if i notice a difference. if i feel up to it, this time i will try and climb that wall as far as the food goes.. i think you can meet your goal.. the dinners are so delish and they don't come in EXTRA large portions so if you pick something and stick with that i am sure you can do as you are planning.. good luck and enjoy your trip! you are doing great .. keep up the good work!
  14. Fantastic!.. keep it up!
  15. best wishes! You got this!!!
  16. just keep trying to gt the fluids in.... in time as your stomach heals you will be able to get more in.. don't worry. just keep sipping.. as long as you don't dehydrate you will be fine. my doc told me i had enough fat for me to survive for a very long time so just keep drinking. Good Luck and you got this!
  17. i do have thin hair also.. i have been losing my hair for years now... i just hit 3mths out and it is really falling out now... i don't know what her result will be .. best of luck to her!
  18. Congratulation! So happy for you and proud that you are sticking to it.. keep up the good work.. you got this! Enjoy working that sleeve!
  19. thanks for the warning!
