  1. Totally agree 100% , Im 5 months post-op. I don't get people that go through all of this hard work (which I tried to have surgery 3 times, so in 3 yrs) just to throw it away. It's a lifestyle change, not a miracle surgery, so many people gain back weight when they revert to old ways. Even if you do stay thin and eat crap, your health will still diminish, it'll j/be on the inside instead of where everyone can see it. I'm pretty passionate about this & think people who want to go back to eating crap are STUPID!
  2. Girl I feel you, I was the same way. I was afraid my child would grow up w/no pictures with or of his mother. Now I love taking pics & shopping!
  3. I don't know if this depends on your doctor/weight/health or what but my doctor only had me do a 24hr diet pre-op. eating a little after surgery wasn't a big deal because your stomach is so freaking small it takes nothing to fill you up!
  4. Is anyone having problems only bleeding after intercourse! I think this things gotta come out
  5. It's probably your system changing getting ready to be able to conceive! Yay! It took is 3 years to get pregnant I have PCOS I went through all of these "top" doctors ended up doing Accupuncture & even though I only had one child, I got pregnant w/twins. Our bodies are crazy! But he's my little Angel & I guess I'm really not ready to go through all that again, it was a very rough pregnancy.
  6. That's just what my surgeon @ Vanderbuilt told me
  7. I'm scared to get pregnant again, my child is 2 & I j/had V Sleeve 5 months ago. I know you hv to wait 18 months that's fine, I just don't want to get fat again. Anyone feel this way or going to do this?
  8. There is a PH Balance "all over & special place" body wash & body powder made by Summers Eve & Vagasil hope it works!
  9. I have it, it was painful for two months, it's been "bothering" my husband the entire time. I've had the strings cut 3 times, i'm still bleed after intercourse & still bothering my husband. I think I'm gonna have it removed, the bad thing is it hasn't stalled my weight loss & my skin looks great!
  10. The GNC brand Lean shake is really good, best I've had yet & at Krogers I've found Simple Truth Protein bars 21 grms of protein!
  11. Started out 266lbs 2/25/13 now I'm 192lbs 7/21/13
  12. Girl you look fantastic! Great job!
  13. Oh yes totally normal, I'm 5 months post op & I burp ALL the time! It also doesn't take much to make me pass gas
  14. Try upping your Water intake. Are you walking/exercising? Just double check all your food choices it's not hard to pick bad habits back up, I should know! Keep up the good work & j/keep making healthy choices! ????
  15. That's awesome! U look great!
  16. Yes no pasta at all, try spaghetti squash. I cut out ALL starch's
