  1. Omg you'll be the thin sexy version of kevin james :x - Kaylee Ann ~ Surgiversary: 6/11/12
  2. How exciting! - Kaylee Ann ~ Surgiversary: 6/11/12
  3. You should have gotten her fired. What a horrible person. My most embarrassing moment was a few months ago (so I was already trying to get my rny) when the south florida fair came to town. I was with friends and kept ranting about my favorite ride and how much fun we'd have on it. Getting in the seat was hard enough because not only was it small but I had to jump up to even get in. I was then told to change seats 3 separate times in front of everyone there (which meant awkwardly jumping and squeezing my ass into the seat 3 times) until they finally told me sorry I was too fat to ride. I left while my other friends who were already strapped in got to ride. I have never been so humiliated in my entire life. I cried so much. - Kaylee Ann ~ Surgiversary: 6/11/12

    I don't even think I'd call this a 'recipe' since it's so simple, but I just made it tonight and wanted to share. I took 2.5 oz of shrimp, cut it up into 1/4ths and grated parmesan and smoked gouda over it after seasoning with garlic powder and fowl/fish seasoning then microwaved it for 30 seconds to get the cheese somewhat melted followed by broiling it for about 5 minutes or until it looked all melty and delicious. It was like shrimp mac n cheese - Kaylee Ann ~ Surgiversary: 6/11/12
  10. My BIGGEST issue was quitting smoking. I smoked 1 to 1.5 picks a day for years. I was able to successfully quit with the help of the patch for about 2 weeks (which got me over my smoking&driving trigger) and then I switched to the 'finity' e-cigarette which you can buy at walgreens. I used the e-cigarette for a few weeks and one night while having wine I was using it and it made me so nauseous that I never used it again. Everyone i worked with, all my friends and my parents (who I live with) smoked while I was quitting, so that can not be an excuse. It's one of the hardest things i've had to do but now I'm 3-4 months without cigarettes and it feels amazing. I save so much money (I suggest doing what I did and using some of the money you save from not buying cigarettes as a gift to yourself for quitting. I.e. I now get my nails done regularly which costs me $80/m which is way cheaper than smoking which cost me $200/m. It also keeps me from picking it up again because I just love having beautiful nails.) You will love being a non smoker believe me. Having your entire life not surround around cigarettes is awesomely liberating in a way you just can't understand right now. And it's true, smokers smell like SHIT. - Kaylee Ann ~ Surgiversary: 6/11/12
  11. Doesn't it seem like doctors blame every medical problem you have on your weight? "Oh you have tumors all over your body and are bleeding from your eyes? Get on the elliptical fatty" - Kaylee Ann ~ Surgiversary: 6/11/12
  12. Omg right? - Kaylee Ann ~ Surgiversary: 6/11/12
  13. 1. Be able to fit a towel around me 2. Stop hearing "you have such a pretty face" 3. Boys giving me the time of day 4. Water park/beach/bathing suit 5. Falling not being as embarrassing... know what I mean? 6. No more chaffing 7. Not being embarrassed at how huge my clothes/underwear looks off my body 8. Not sweating all the time 9. No more panting because I went up one flight of stairs 10. No more wearing a cardigan every single day (in florida!) because I hate my fat arms - Kaylee Ann ~ Surgiversary: 6/11/12
  14. I'm post op and can't imagine it coming off either. I've lost 26 lbs but am waiting for the weight to stop coming off because me being thin just doesn't seem like it could happen in reality - Kaylee Ann ~ Surgiversary: 6/11/12
  15. I had a very hard time using my stomach muscles to sit up from my bed and really anything abdomen related like coughing hurt. Walking made the pain less noticeable, though for about 2 weeks I was holding the left side of my stomach while standing/walking because it hurt not to (mind you I later found out I had an infection on my left side so that could have been the culprit) - Kaylee Ann ~ Surgiversary: 6/11/12
  16. Is this level of anemia normal? - Kaylee Ann ~ Surgiversary: 6/11/12
  17. What's that - Kaylee Ann ~ Surgiversary: 6/11/12
  18. What brand - Kaylee Ann ~ Surgiversary: 6/11/12
  19. I had a little bit of fruit juice mixed with a few blackberries and 1/2 a banana and a little milk with my Calcium powder blended with ice and half way through my drink I had to keep myself from vomiting at work for 25 mins today - Kaylee Ann ~ Surgiversary: 6/11/12
  20. You can not mix solids and liquids. Only broth - Kaylee Ann ~ Surgiversary: 6/11/12
  21. Anemic due to surgery? - Kaylee Ann ~ Surgiversary: 6/11/12
  22. I've been told by many people that post-op you are no longer hungry and have to remind yourself to eat. This is not the case for me at all, every 2 hours or so after eating i'm starving! Some people say it's head hunger but it sure doesn't feel mental since my stomach is growling like a beast inside me. I eat about 80g of.protein daily so that's not the issue. It scares me how often i feel the need to eat post op - Kaylee Ann ~ Surgiversary: 6/11/12
