"You're Melting"
Comeflywithme replied to JamieLogical's topic in Weight Loss Surgery Success Stories
I'm 10 months out and I'm in shock everyday when my coworkers tell me that I'm melting away, shrinking, they call me Skinny Minnie! GASP! It's so surreal to hear this. I honestly don't see it, I mean, I know 75 lbs is a lot but I don't see the extreme of it so those comments shock me but it does feel nice... Keep it up (or should I say down lol) peeps, this is not the easy way out by no means but it's so worth it, right? I love it! Good Luck to us all.... -
Awsome, good luck! From hereon the scale will begin to go down down down and in about 2 weeks your energy level will begin to go up up up! You're going to love it!

Did your success trigger people you know to have surgery too?
Comeflywithme replied to Katie Loesch-Meyer's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
YES OMG after people seeing me and hearing me gloat about how happy I am how great I feel, 4 co-workers and 2 personal friends have gotten sleeved and another one JUST went for his first check up last week!! I feel so happy for them and so proud and I constantly coach them. They too tell me all the time how I was their inspiration, what a great feeling! -

Ugh feeling your pain... from all of you and I've been bad with these new Dove Dark chocolate Covered cranberries, OMG!! LOL! I can't wait for better weather to continue with my walking and staying OFF the chocolate! Dammit! LOL! Good luck my Sleeved Sisters! ♥ -
I'm 9 months post-op and I have a LOT of hair, well used to... my hair too is thinning out big time and brittle so I started 1000 mg Biotin two weeks ago and my doctor said that is fine and that my new hair should be growing out now due to the fact that I am getting more Protein in. I hope so. Even my ponytail looks skinny now lol!

Good Luck!!! All will be fine, stay positive and MAKE SURE you get walking the next few days to help with your bloating and gas discomfort, if you do, then you'll be just find.... Yayyy! You're going to love it! -
Feeling weak... need motivation... :)
Comeflywithme replied to TeacherMommy's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
YUP I can relate and I too am guilty of being "bad" in the last few weeks --- I turned it around this week when I saw I gained 2 lbs! NO WAY I said to mysefl!! Indulge if it makes you feel better -- ONCE but don't make a habit of it. Pull out an old picture of the "bigger" you and I guarantee that will make you eat a teaspoon of Peanut Butter, rather than munch on something less healthy and full of cabs and calories. Good Luck to us, we CAN do it!! We've come too far....! -
Any research on changing relationships?
Comeflywithme replied to mercy96's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Hmmm... it's all about jealosy.... Wait till the weight starts coming down ... then you'll REALLY see it then. I have family members as well as coworkers treating me very differently too. I shrug it off. You just go about your happy self with this tremendous decision that will change your life -- for the better and not mind the opinion of others my dear. I choose to IGNORE those who either used sarcasm or negativity towards my WLS and I am just too happy to deal with that. -
Best tasting protein shakes?
Comeflywithme replied to smile121's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Premier has the MOST Protein and that's what you really need to look for --- sure taste is definetely important but we need our protein intake. To me, besides it having the most protein, I like them the best! -
Patience my dear... the weight WILL come off and it DOES GET super much easier and you're going to LOVE it, I guarantee it!!!!!!!!!!!! YES buy a new small swim suit for summer as your old one will be hanging off your body. The energy will begin increasing in the next two weeks or so and then.....you'll be unstoppable!!!!!! Enjoy this new adventure in your life, the BEST is yet to come! You'll see............. Good Luck, stay positive!!
