  11. Lmfao... Yes. I think we've all have. Try to remain calm. Its normal. I have been at the same weight sometimes for 3 or 4 weeks at a time its called a plateau... Then weightloss follows eventually
  12. Everyone tolerates pain differently... I have a higher pain tolerance I guess.. Lol
  13. You guys will be fine. Recovery from this surgery is quite rapid. I Stayed in the hospital two nights, and was walking the very next day following sugery. As soon as I returned home I resumed my normal duties with no problem at all. Good luck. And congrats on your great decisions to change your lives!
  14. You will see, they will make a huge difference! I shocked myself when I realized how thin my thighs had gotten... Lol
  15. Yes.. The fainting was due to low blood pressure. Just becareful and stand up slowly. I fainted 4 times in two months but the first time I got a concussion.
  16. Well I feel great now, but around my 7th month post op I felt awful! I would feel dizzy upon standing and began having fainting spells that lead to hospitalizations. It was determined by my doctors n other specialists, that the reason for all that was the rapidness of the weight loss. Keep in mind... That by 6mons post op I had already lost more than 100 lbs. The weight has been slow now so it has given my body time to adjust. No more fainting! Thank goodness.
  17. thanks ladies... the weight loss is much slower this far out and i still have about 40 lbs that i would like to loose. its getting hard.to not give in to tempations lol but i know i can do it
  18. im sure u will soon! im 26yrs old, i currently weigh 167, and im 5'8...
  19. im sure u will just stick to the new eating habits its easy to get side tracked as u get further out.
  20. [ATTACH]1662[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]1663[/ATTACH] these are my before and after pix. i am currently 9mons postop and down 125lbs.
  21. That was my understanding as well. But each surgeon is different, as to what they want us to eat or stay away from.
