  1. Ohhhhh me too! Was sleeved 3/18/13 and I got the stomach flu on Friday!!! That was a most distasteful adventure. However, on the bright side? I lost 5 lbs over the weekend! Not a recommended way to do it though!
  2. My insurance has discontinued installing the lapband due to how many reconstructions they have to perform. The lapband they have found can grow into your stomach and then your stomach grows around and over it. I had my sleeve done 2 1/2 months ago and I LOVE IT!!! It is one of my top five things I have ever done!
  3. I am sad that you think that "all the men's eyes are on me" and that most men are piggish and brutes. It is really ok if men want to look at you don't you think? Most men do not want to attack and rape you, most men like to admire a pretty woman. The more victimized you feel, the more of a victim you become but be careful of hitting the other end of the spectrum as well. If you put on your witch face. You might find yourself becoming unapproachable and therefore undateable. Prince Charming will not fall out of the sky....it is ok for you too let someone in. If you think that all men are pigs....then they will become so and you will lose.....

  6. The dreaded three week stall! Oy!!! I was sleeved on March 18th, 2013. My pre surgery weight was 230 and surgery day it was 218 and my current weight as of this morning was 194....I had hit my 3 week stall right on schedule but thankfully it lasted only 9 days!!! I am grateful for every single experience that I have had.....even the stall...I am happy to say that I have once again picked up on the weight loss and I only look at the scale 2x a week....!!!
  7. Hello, I am 3 weeks post op and I am new to the clothing exchange. Would some one please be kind enough to tell me how this forum works?
  8. Also, no more than 4 ounces at a time, or three slices of deli meats (thin sliced...chicken or ham). If my chest starts to hurt....then I stop!!
  9. A scrambled egg (olive oil....no Pam), yogurt (Greek non fat low sugar no fruit), low fat cottage cheese, soups, deli meats, soft cheeses, super soft chicken, carrots....I chew 30 times per bite and I take 45-60 minutes per meal.
  10. I had my sleeve done one March 18, 2013.....how are you doing????
