  1. How big of a nono is sweet tea? I am completely ok not drinking cokes, but I'm growing sick of water and the flavor packets.... I'm really wanting a cold glass of sweet tea!!!
  2. Yesterday I tried on a size 20 jean... and I am about 10 lbs away from being able to comfortably wear them. I went from a size 26/28 down to almost a 20 in around 2 months!!!!
  3. I'm a little over 2 months out and I still don't want food. I know I'm supposed to eat 4 times a day but I'm lucky to eat once because I just DON'T WANT FOOD . I don't think I have experienced a hunger feeling since before surg
  4. Omg these past few weeks have been driving me nuts!!!. I don't want to eat. Things I'm supposed to eat I can't cuz it makes me.sick and I hate the taste. I'm lucky to eat once a day and hold it down. I miss dr pepper and sweet tea. I want bread and I didn't even like bread that much before surgery! I wanna cry. Seriously. I had my sugary may 18th and I'm down 40 lbs. I'm so thankful for the sugery, but hate not feeling "normal"
  5. It kinda makes you have buyers remorse to a degree doesn't it? The only thing is my doc wants us off of the shakes at 6 weeks and eating. I just don't see how that's possible. I'm almost a month out and the things that they said I can / should be eating make me feel like crap afterward. On a positive note im,dropping the pounds like crazy ????
  6. I feel sick every time I eat ????
  7. The mind games after surgery are all most too much for me. I don't want to ear at all. Period. I went from trying to stop myself from eating to now I forces myself to eat. I've lost 37 lbs since my.surgery date 05/18.,but I don't SEE it at all. My clothes are a little more loose, but my mind tells me nothing has changed. I don't like eggs, cottage cheese, or chicken anymore like I did prior to surgery.... I'm a mess
  8. it a just crazy to me that I want it in the first place! I rarely ate bread but I severely want a ham or turkey sammich
  9. Thank u! Glad ur feeling better
  10. This is so crazy. I hardly even ate bread before surgery, but now I miss it. I miss eating a sandwich lol is that not crazy? I can't imagine trying to eat beead. The thought of it makes my stomach hurt, but the craving is still there. Anyone experience similar?
  11. It's an upper resp. Infection :/ I wanna go to bed. It's kicking my rear.
  12. I'm at a doc now. My pcp couldn't see me til Tuesday and my surgeon is 1/2 way across the state. I decided to go to a diff doc just to make sure it's a bug or somethin
  13. I just wanna know if anyone may have developed it if that was any of their symptoms. I would hate to drive 3 hours one way over a cold
  14. Hey guys. Everything has went so smooth after my surgery! I judt got back from vacation, but the past 3 days I have had a horrible cough and now my throat hurts pretty bad. No fever. I did forget to pack my spirometer... could it be pneumonia?
  15. My sister is overweight like me and she has been a thorn in my dang side. I don't know if it's a jealousy thing or she's just hating on me or what. When I told her I lost 18 lbs in 8 days her response was well if u lose it fast u gain it back fast. Made me wanna punch her in the throat lol. I've learned to just over look her though. Haters gonna hate right?
  16. I tried and it didn't go so well... it was super dry and not good to me lol I'm scared I'll get sick or I'll eat way too much...
  17. Did/does anyone have a fear of eating post op? I am literally afraid to eat alot of times. They put me on soft foods now and I'm scared to actually do it....
  18. Amazing job! I'm 8 days out. I'm hoping to be in ur shoes!
  19. I'm glad I haven't been weighing at home. It was kinda fun being surprised at the doc office ☺ thanks:)
  20. Congrats. It all goes by pretty quick! U will be back home and dropping lbs in no time!
  21. My doc wants us off them at 6 weeks
