Now (2/4/13) and then (8/12/12)
I have lost 88 pounds

Lebim, I know you mean well. But people don't want to hear/read your negative comments. I'm just saying.

well being only 2 weeks out I'm drinking my protein....most of my intake is sf stuff like Jello, pudding, applesauce, etc....The only thinks I've eaten so far with Protein is Wendy's chilli and tuna but those were only for a few days....and I'm pretty sure I'm A Ok and the diet my surgeon gave me is perfectly fine....my concern isn't fats if that was the case I wouldn't have gotten the procedure...you dont know what I'm eating to assume anything....please keep your negative ASS comments to yourself...I didn't ask you for that and if you want to be bitchy then be bitchy on someone else's post....thanks have a great day!!

tonight had a small wendy's chili, and had about 9 tortilla chips.< /p>

I love the morning star "sausage." 10g of protein! I also like the Boca Burger... It has 15g of Protein. Tonight I had baked chicken and a small piece of sweet potato. So far nothing I've tried has agitated my tummy. That's good and a little scary. I almost want my body to reject something's so I stay away from them. I am way too scared and way too gung ho about loosing weight to try sugar or fried foods!

I'm having that problem....I'm also putting that pressure on myself... My sister just sent me this...

Its been almost 5 months now. Its amazing how much I have changed. Compliments are pouring in. My self esteem is up, I feel more confident, and most of all I got my sexy back. The reason behind my decision to have this surgery was primarily my health. But ive gain more than i expected. From 375 I have lost 95lbs in such a short time. I wore a size 30, i am now my way to a size 16. Its been over 12 years since i could wear a size 16. My husband is proud of me, my children loves the new me. I'm happy!

Swilkins, you'll be just fine. We all have our struggles.

First of all congrats on the weight loss!!! I don't like to lift weights or anything like that... But found a route I like to walk outside and faithfully do it everyday no matter what the weather... Key is find something you really like and just get off your butt and do it!!!!

Maybe I'm just jealous because I wish I was eating Cookies and soda and cocktails.

I passed my one year mark on the 10th of November with a total weight loss of 148 pounds! I only have 7 pounds to my goal weight! Woot!
my superpower is......

This to shall pass.... DL needs to provide you with some advice. !!! He inspires me !!

I went thru the "WTF did I do to myself?" As well after surgery. I was expecting to not be hungry, I always felt hungry. My doc had me on mush, I hate mushy stuff. Everyone around me was eating real food and I was in mourning that I wouldn't be able to eat again. I am now 11 Weeks out. I feel amazing. I can eat real food. The WTF's have passed and I am honestly able to say I am proud of myself for doing this, taking care of myself, putting me first. The hard moments are few and far between. Hang in there! This place is full of support and a great place to vent during those moments. Wishing you great success!

My BS was running 250 and up before surgery and after surgery I wake up to 105.
Almost off all my meds.

We didn't gain all our weight in weeks or months. It took years even decades. It will come off I hear there are ups and downs. I'm only 12 post op but it seems like its a journey not a vacation. We will all get there as long as we stay strong and postitive and keep moving forward.

I am a success story ...200 lbs since 2000/2001. Gained 40 back over that time and have since lost 60..workout, Water, dedication....paid off.
