3 I confess that I am scared that I am no longer invisible to strangers because I feel very socially awkward and it we easier being a b***h
4 I confess that I went to a party with co workers the other night and I felt confident and sexy for the first time in forever
5 I confess that I do cheat and have wine, chocolate, chips and carbs at least once a week but in small portions and one more
6 I confess that I am scared that at almost 4 months out I can easily eat 1200 calories a day

Buying a pair of size 12 jeans and a large dress from old navy. I use to be a 22. Also I started the couch to 5k program and today I completed week 4. I tried a new spot for running and most of it was uphill and I did it! Felt amazing afterwards!!!!! I am 8 weeks out and down 44.5 pounds.

July 3 here. Down 23 lbs and super excited by that! Hard to get in my liquid and Protein also! The Water is a little easier now but still have a tough time some days. Today is the first day I made it to 56grams of protein and I'll have a yogurt before bed putting me at my 60gram goal. Hate the Protein Shakes so much! Only can tolerate Syntrax Nectar fuzzy naval with orange juice. Everything else I have tried sux! Even the ones I liked preop I can't stand! I also hate every calcium citrate I've tried so far! Yuck!!!!!

I'm also on vaca at the beach with my fam right now. I am sitting on the beach with my legs crossed for the first time in probably 3 years! It feels amazing! Congrats to you!!!!

Thanks everyone! Lemon and raspberry are right up my alley! I'm going to check out those sites tonight! Thanks again!

I had them post op too. Probably for a week or so and I would also agree its from the pain meds.

I'm a nurse at a very large hospital so our vacations are picked a year in advanced. I was planning on having sx in June but scheduling conflicts and hurricane Sandy ruined that (long story). I would have had to wait until September to have sx if I didn't have it July 3 due to once again, scheduling and doctors vacations. We are staying at a beach house so it's low key and relaxing for the most part. I'm ok with going to the beach and boardwalk. I stayed home one day due to be being too tired. My hubby is just being a jackass bc I'm not my usual self. Gee I wonder why. So brave maybe, crazy definitely, but now pissed yes!

Where do I sign up for bariatric coupons????? Website please!

I have type two diabetes. My doctor told me to stop my meds, I was only on glucophage, and he will check my hemoglobin a1c in 3 months. Just got sleeved July 3 so I have a long way to go but here's keeping my fingers crossed!!!!!

I am 8 days post op and same issue! My sleep pattern is all messed up! Awake half the night and naps during day. I try not to sleep during day but sometimes it's impossible not to! Last night I actually slept a whole 6 hours without waking up and that was huge for me!!!

Just joined like 4 minutes ago but have been creeping awhile! Just had VSG on July 3. So far so good. Still on clears until Thursday which is now getting rough! My name is Danielle I am 37 with 2 small kids and a hubby, 2 cats, 2 fish and a dog. I am a labor and delivery nurse and I love my job. Was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes about 10 months ago and that's when I made up my mind about WLS. Diabetes is scary and I want it gone! Been on every diet and exercise program known to man kind. Struggled with weight my whole life always known as fluffy or big boned. My highest weight was 248 at 5'5. I have already lost 10 lbs since Wednesday but am having a horrible time getting my Protein Shakes in. On Thursday ill be able to mix them with more than just Water so I know it will get easier. Thank God for boards like this. Thank you for sharing your very inspirational stories! I hope to be one of them to someone else one day!!!!

I told everyone. I don't care who knows. I posted it on Facebook too. It's a personal decision and mine was to tell anyone.
