  1. The surgery was a life saver for me. It's one step at a time, one day at a time. It requires life changes. You have to decide if it's worth it to you. There are risks. There are rewards. I still don't like looking in the mirror. But it sure is fun being told you are sexy. Lol!
  2. I have between 6 and 9 lbs to lose. Depends on the day and the fluid retention. The last 10 lbs are so slow.
  3. I would imagine you go back to the basics. Heating pad is a great idea- try walking more and talk to your doc about pain meds. Drink your fluids- sip sip sip- dehydration can make you feel yucky.
  4. Kinsse- try it now. It suddenly started working for me. Put a new post on rants called help or something like that. Alex is still working on it.
  5. I was told no travel for two weeks due to the risk of blood clots. Then up and walking every hour. This was not up for debate by the surgeon.
  6. Being cold is still a problem. I doubt that will go away.
  7. The butt pain will pass. I am 19 months out and around 152 lbs. It was bad for a while- but I guess it toughened up.
  8. Can you ask for a special plate? Maybe soup? Or with me I'm Gluten free- I always have an excuse. Lol!
  9. Usually dumping happens after high fat or sugar. Sugar can translate into high carb items as well as sugar=carbs. Tomato soup has caused some to dump. Check your sugars in every processed food that crosses your lips. And your serving size. Measure or weigh your food.

  18. The Last page of each thread is not coming up for me. It keeps telling me that it doesn't exist.
  19. You need to seek help in the purging. This could cause permanent damage or death to you. One step at a time. You can do this-
