  1. Just found out I can't have kids. Miss food so much right now. I almost regret surgery because I really want to curl up in a dark room and binge until I pop.

      Thanks, everyone. I'm doing the m&m wallow today, and vowing to pull myself out of the dumps and start figuring out what I want to actually DO about it tomorrow. We already started talking possible donor eggs, but I'm going to a fertility center in the area to find out more about maybe how much time I have left to decide while that's still a viable option.

  2. Sigh. Freaking 6 pounds from ONEderland and only ONE pound from 100 lb loss. Of course I'm stalled!! ;)

      Aww, that's the slowest pound EVER, isn't it? You're doing an AMAZING job, and you'll be there before you know it!

  3. Anyone know anything about MCT oil powders? Or the Truenutrition brand that lets you mix your own protein stuff? I've been reading and thought about going 95% whey / 5% MCT in a protein blend, but haven't found much anecdotal information about people trying it post WLS

      Did the liquid seem to make any difference for you - either for weight loss, energy, metabolic stuff? I went ahead and ordered a 90/10 whey to MCT blend and am going to give it a try.

  4. Finished the Ugly Sweater 5k in less than an hour with dilly-dallying at the hot chocolate station to take pictures of inflatable reindeer. There was a time I would have had to push to my limits and taken over 2 hours...

  5. Ahh stop! I got a pair of 10's buttoned! I couldn't sit down or breathe, but I got INTO those bad boys, lol

      Thanks! Yeah, I left them at the store, but not before I thought I was going to have to ask for help, lol. My birthday is in about 5 weeks, I'm aiming to make those my "snug" jeans then :)

  6. Intrigued by, but afraid of, the calcium patch...that's the one supplement I have trouble remembering through the day and I'd love to be able to slap a patch on and call it done.

      Right! I like mine (I got orange ones, they taste like starburst, lol) it's just the timing when I get wrapped up in something at work. Sometimes I don't even hear the alarms I've set.

  7. I am really mourning my clothes. I have a lot of nice clothes, some European designers and a pretty extensive shoe/boot collection. I just tried on my boots and realized, they are all too large in calf already :(

      roundisashape

      Isn't that the craziest feeling? We want it so much, but still find things to miss. I passed all my clothes to my niece and sometimes see her wearing something and think, "I miss that top." :). We're just gonna have to go shopping, right?

  8. I'm an idiot. Found a FWB, started having feelings, now he's gone and all I want to do is cry until I throw up and eat cinnamon rolls.

      I wish I could post his picture here - he's so cute! Today he finally learned to latch onto his bottle so I could stop feeding him with a dropper. It's the most adorable thing EVER.

      Thank you! I tried to sneak him into work but he wasn't having it - screeched so loud one of the guys said I should name him Squeak, and it stuck :). My awesome sauce manager said I could bring him in until he's big enough to leave at home for a few hours at a time.

      All true, thank you. I found a kitten last night - he's only about 2 weeks old, so now he's getting smothered with attention, lol.

      Thank you both...I ended up sharing one cinnamon roll with the dog, then concluded that backsliding wasn't worth it and stopped. I just hit the 100 pound mark this weekend and I don't want to look back.

  13. 60% of my excess weight is gone as of today. According to the surgeon's office, I'm now a textbook success - I'm not done yet, though!

  14. 5 lbs to get to -100, 6 to be under 200. These few pounds are taking FOREVER, lol.

    1. roundisashape

      roundisashape

      That's hilarious! I think I am, I'm getting into stuff I couldn't before - but once I'm under 200 pounds I can skydive without an extra charge. REALLY want to do that!

      Thank you! I'm at the 8 month mark, and even though I'm pretty careful sometimes I just forget myself. It's always a surprise, lol.

      Thanks! I ended up giving myself the Heimlich over the sink at work, lol. Grateful no one walked in on that!!

  18. 10 more lbs to go until I reach my goal weight!

  19. Went to the movies for the first time since I got sleeved. Fit in the seat like a normal person. It was wonderful :)

      Right! I flew at about 3 months and it was tight, but it worked - I'm with you, though, I want to try again!

  20. Why am I so hungry this morning?? Ever have one of those days where no matter what you eat, even high protein options, you just can't get the gnawing stomach hunger to quit? It's barely 10am and I've consumed about half my calories and almost half my protein for the day. And I've been drinking my water.

    1. roundisashape

      roundisashape

      Yup! Those days suck. Tomorrow you probably won't want to eat at all!

  21. Pay day as an adult is depressing- 1 minute of Yay! then the brick wall of realizing all that beautiful money has to pay bills and buy groceries. Boo.

  22. Sleeve is working, so why did I find myself ALMOST biting on some ridiculous miracle weight loss drops one of my friends is using? Dumb, dumb, dumb - get it together, girlie!

    1. roundisashape

      roundisashape

      It IS some crazy programming! It's also funny how, when you start losing weight, people who don't know what you're doing all of a sudden crawl out of the woodwork and try to sell you diet aids. There's no better diet aid than cutting out 80% of your stomach, lol.

  23. Got started with Match.com and Plenty of Fish. This is hard, why didn't I do it when I was younger?

      So far, one super nice guy that I'm sad to not be attracted to (he's THAT nice), one that has a job and makes me laugh so he sounds pretty promising, and one creeper that "has a good feeling about me"...and so does his kid. That seems pretty aggressive, lol.

      I definitely appreciate the tips! It's a social skill I definitely waited too long to learn.

      Ooh, I hadn't heard of that one - thanks! I kind of suck at the early relationship stuff. Plus I guess I have this weird hangup about wanting to be pursued since I never have been, but it doesn't really work that way anymore. I'm trying to get past that and reach out first. Hell on the ego, though.
