  1. I ALWAYS gain 5-8lbs during my monthly cycle and then loose it. I know it's coming and even though I was sleeved on the 6/17th I figured weight loss would slow...not that I would gain at all!! I gained .8 lbs from yesterday!!! How do I stop this before it makes me crazy!!! I know it wasn't even a a whole pound but it was enough to scare the crap out of me.
  2. How tall are you? Everything about you so far sounds like me. I'm only 1 week out though.
  3. Woohoo!! I'm hoping to keep up! my sleeve date 6/17 keep rock'n it!!
  4. How tall are you?? I'm 1 week out and started at a 20... thanks!
  5. I had surgery 1 week ago and I have to give my hubby some points! He's been making sure not to eat things in front of me if he even thinks I'd want it! he even tries my last couple bites of whatever watery soup I make for the day (or couple days) he's being a trooper for sure! My goal is to be 'smaller' than him. Even when we first met I was 180 he was 175...we're both 5'10. For the last 7 years I've been around 240-254 and he's stayed 185-200. My goal...my first BIG goal is to hit 199.9 by Sept 3rd. My daughters first day of school! I'm sitting at 223 today.

  14. I had surgery Monday 17th. Tuesday I slept and had a swallow study. Wed. I did clear liquids. Today I added thicker liquids, had my drain removed, and am on my way home. I can hold down 3 oz an hour every hour. If I do 4 oz's then I have a hard time doing it again the next hour. I'm so excited to go home!!
