Yay! Get to report my first nsv! I've been wearing my size 18 jeans that I alwAys wear and they've been looking awful and falling off so I tried on a pair of size 14 jeans I had in my closet and thought there is no way but they fit! So so excited! Oh yeah and it's easier to put my shoes on! I don't breakout in a sweat when I do:)

That is awesome! I can already say I have actually enjoyed life more in the few activities I have done post recovery than I ever did before:) it's like this whole other world that doesn't center around food opens up and it's great and I actually want to be there:) I'm super excited for you!

I sort of miss this but the reward is so great it's worth it! I'm 17 days out and down 26 pounds ( 10 of those pre surgery) and feel great. I was so scared about this because me and my partner and family always bonded and spent time together doing things that involved food so I didn't know what we'd do but have found much better ways to spend time with my family:)

I've done natural child birth and it definitely was not that painful but for me the first day out was quite painful but I was on so many medications that helped me get through. It's been better every day since then:)

Does alcohol cause ulcers??

Yay ! Congratulations and it will just keep getting better:)

I love how you said that Sparklette. That you are worth it. I'm worth it too just don't realize it sometimes. I love that attitude!

How much biotin is everyone taking??

I felt the same on day one but not anymore. It will get so much better:)

I am 13 days post op and feel the same way you do:). Trying to listen to my body but I totally get that it is frustrating;)

To me that sounds like a good workout considering you Are only so many days post op. we are eating so much less and our bodies still need time to heal. I think that is what your body is telling you and I think you're doing great!

Yay! So happy for you. Glad to hear you're doing we'll:)

Yes yes! Me too! My skin was sooo broken out before and now is as clear as can be. Love it!

OMg you look amazing. You look like you should be the daughter in the second pic!! Awesome congratulations:)

Yep and I can say its true. I was drinking with a straw and had horrible gas pain. Now I know better:)

Of course that makes sense. Thanks so much:)

I was told to use dial antibacterial

Is a straw bad??

I also really feel that people like this are jealous of the thought of how you may lose the weight and look great! And of course feeling that way, they have to tear somebody down to make themselves feel better. It is so sad. My closest friend is like this and has started a diet and exercise thing and is so proud and keeps talking about the weight she lost but totally won't acknowledge mine even when I talk about it! People like this are toxic and totally not worth our time. Needless to say, I hardly talk to her. It is important to surround ourselves with people who build us up in our lives:) you're doing awesome and this is far from being the easy way out
