That was so funny! I did have a woman ask me when my baby was due and I looked at her and said "about 4 o'clock when the bus pulls up n drops her off"!!!! The look on her face was priceless.
My last appointment is dec 2 and then it'll be time to talk to her and get everything scheduled.

Congrats Sherry!! It'll be here before you know it. I went to my first nut appt and a physical therapy checkup. The nut put me on a diet similar to Atkins and the phys therapist wants me to use a spirometer three times a day to strengthen my lungs before surgery.

I wouldn't mind having a nurse all mellowed out on weed. She'd be less bitchy than the other nurses. Lmao

Lol with Medicare it's just if you meet the criteria. Ifound a Dr I liked at a Center of Excellence (required) and they do everything. The only reason I have a wait is because my bariatric center -not Medicare- requires 3 NUT appointments a month apart. They also require you to watch their seminar, a sleep study, stress test, 1 physical therapy appt and a psych eval. I have all of those already lined up because they schedule them for you. Shazaam! Easy as pie! Or a Protein smoothie, I guess...

I was stalled for 2 weeks starting right at my 3rd week after surgery. Cool thing was that I had kept up taking my measurements and the inches were still melting off during my stall.

Wow. I already have National Geographic boobs that, when unleashed, point straight down. And I'm pre-op....

Haha! I had my neighbor say that. I said "you drink a shake for Breakfast and have a small piece of meat and some spinach for lunch n dinner for the rest of your life and see how long it works for you". She shut her mouth after that.

This thread is ridiculous.

All you really need are thigh high red boots with a 4 inch heel and a whip. With that you could wear a burlap sack and be sexy.

I could totally dispose of a body. Just sayin

Even when I was a small size seven I always had a pooch above my c-section scar that I referred to as "super fatty". Maybe one day once I reach goal for a year, I'll get to change that with plastics. Lol

I'm 4 months out and have lost 45 pounds. I still have 10 to go to meet my goal. I have to say it's been tough!!!

Our center of gravity changes when we lose weight and we walk differently etc. Or bodies ache as it adjusts

I'm 18 weeks out, 48 pounds lost.

I'm happy to announce that my weight loss stall has broken. Finally! I lost 3 lbs this morning and I'm officially in the 250's! I didn't change anything related to my diet, but I did start seeing my trainer again.

The vomiting does not sound normal to me. Dumping usually involves diarrhea.
My surgery was feb 18 and I've lost exactly 70 pounds. 50 since day of surgery

My NSV today!

I think I am ready to run a 5k. I just won't run my first 5k in the Southern California heat. So I'm looking into some in the fall. I have been pretty MIA. Hubs got a new job which is going to be amazing and we are getting ready to move out of my parents house. We are very excited and stressed all at once.
How is everyone else doing?

15 weeks post op - down 48 lbs and finally broke into Onederland last week!! Had my 3 month check up a few weeks ago and I was so proud I have to share. Dr said they have only seen one other patient have blood work look as good as mine in the last year. I was off the charts on my Protein levels and was above or right where I needed to be on everything. I have a friend who has dealt with serious malabsorption issues since surgery and is on twice the supplements as usual so I have been taking mine religiously and without fail. And...it paid off! I am experiencing some Hair loss but thankfully it hasn't affected the overall look of my hair...hoping it stop soon! So proud of you all and am excited to see everyone at your goal weights, healthy and happy!
