I agree with this! Definitely make sure there's a pillow in the car for the ride home though so you can hold it against yourself when going over bumps or anything.

My clothes!

Yup. I’m five years out and still noisy as heck.

Yes, my original supermodel goal weight was 180. As I neared that I have lowered my supermodel goal weight to 175.
I'm sitting at 179 today and feel that 175 is definitely achievable and I think I will actually pass it. It seems crazy to think I will be that light!!! Blows my mind!

I get this all the time, but I'm super proud of myself too for doing such a great job at getting healthy. This does not bother me because these people all care about me and are genuinely proud that I'm getting healthy! Go me!

I know that I way over packed. I definitely was not in the mindset to read or anything. I maybe watched some TV when I wasn't sleeping. I stayed in the hospital gown until I was discharged, just easier this way and I did not care.
Take what you want, I don't regret over packing or anything.

I usually play on my phone in between bites. Also I think about what will happen if I eat too fast, I’ll get sick and have to vomit it up!

I agree with "the stages are not written in stone". So so true. Give your tummy time to adjust!

This!

Personally I'd stick with your prescribed diet plan for at least 6 months.

My doc said that the stages are not written in stone. Also what are you making the purees out of? Could be whats in it? There are a lot of foods that are on restriction cus of what they do to your stomach even pureed

It took me from May 5th to January 27 to lose 100 pounds. From 327 day of surgery to 227 approximately 8 months post op! Almost 26 months post op and still losing! I think I’m down 152-ish at this point.

I echo this. Best decision I ever made for myself!

Bariatric fusion chewables! They seem to be less expensive than other brands. I prefer the strawberry flavor.

Hello everyone !!🌸

I finally made my decision to have the Bypass, I have an appointment with my surgeon on July 3, 2018 .
I decided on the bypass because I felt it would be the most effective in my weight loss journey . I at times suffer from heart burn and I have heardvthat he sleeve could possible make this worse. Also I have over a 100 lbs to drop and I believe the bypass would be a better tool to help me accomplish this goal . Prior to my 24 week required classes I weighed 336, I am now 305. My BMI is around 48 , and I am 5’7. I’m thinking my surgery will be late July or early August . My Doctor is Dr.Zorn And has done Bariatric surgeries for many years and has earned him the reputation of being one of Southern California’s most experienced Bariatric surgeons , so I feel like I’m once good hands . Anyone abt to share their bypass experience ie. weight loss , other body changes, malabsorption, Hair loss etc

Congrats and good luck! Best decision I ever made!
