@Unhappysleever You will just know... - i actually feel like i am going to get sick right away when i put any pork type products into my mouth.. or pasta/bread etc... but always go back after some time has passed & try them again, you body & taste buds are always changing... (some people dont have any reaction to food)

My Husband & I were on a power walk/jog... it had just poured... 1/2 way through the path was flooded out about 15 feet long... he picked me up and carried me through the Water (i had brand new sneaks on & HE didnt want them to get ruined!!)
First time he has been able to carry me! i cried tears of joy... he laughed... HAHA

@@LynRN the bottom... unless i was bending over,,, then out the top they came...lol i went from busting out of a 42DDD to 38D & really i think i could be in a 36 already... My mom came over one day & said "I think you need to go see Vicky about a Secret, cause whatever you are wearing under there isn't working anymore"

@Rogofulm - YES! love it! This is exactly what i did at a black tie event over the weekend. So many people did not know be "before" and it was a great feeling that WE didnt have my "before" to compare to... they just accepted me as i am right now. I was able to stand straight with pride and not feel any judgement.

I have line DRIED my clothes for as long as i can remember in fear that they would shrink... well i have been throwing my size 10 & 8's Jeans into the dry on HIGH heat in hopes that they shrink - i cant afford to go & buy MORE new clothes hahaha

When you feel the BEST you have felt in a LONG time...

She picked out 2 form fitting dresses - SIZE 10!!
I go into the dressing room with just her waiting for me, to coming out of dressing room to everyone waiting...
Ex-Husband says "HOT DAMN ummm.. REMIND ME WHY WE ARENT TOGETHER?"... my reply "cause you were an idiot" and his mother & Sister laugh agreeing with me...
how does the saying go....
Flight to FL $400
New Dresses $150
Expression on Ex's Face... PRICELESS!!!

I have celiac so it's absolutely essential that I avoid gluten in its entirety. I have several food allergies as well but none developed post sleeve, they were all pre existing.
The gluten free diet plays nicely with good nutrition post-op. Personally I think we have an advantage over those who are tempted by Cookies, Pasta, pizza, bread etc because we simply can't eat them. You just have to watch for hidden sources of gluten, like soy sauce, anything with modified corn starch as an ingredient, etc.

when the tall, skinny Barbie type receptionist claims for the last several months you are as skinny as her...
She ordered jeans on line, they came in & 3 pairs were too small for her... she made me try them on to prove her theory... and they all FIT...
in COMPLETE shock!
I just dont see myself that thin...
