  1. Amen! I felt like i was being attacked because obviously everyone is perfect but like you said everyones done it before and we all learn something new. Now i know one hour doesnt seem to be enough time to be sober.
  2. Yeah after the last comment i looked it up. I felt fine but didnt know i was still concidered intoxicated. I know know if i choose to drink again. We all learn something new everyday.
  3. Wait WHAT!?!?! You had five drinks and drove an hour later? :faint: Yeah i live like 10 minutes from where we were and was perfectly fine. I danced and pee'd it off. And we ate food afterwards so i was fine.The only way your body can get rid of alcohol is through your liver. Dancing and peeing will not help your body metabolise alcohol. Only time. You were a massive danger to yourself and other road users. I appreciate the consurn and i know how i felt and i know where your coming from. Thanks.

  5. Lol peanuts make me ruuuunnnn to the bathroom now but i had a quesadilla before i left so i think that helped a lot. Then we had food afterwards which helped absorb it

  7. What are bay breezes? Coconut rum, cranberry juice and pinaplle juice.
  8. Coconut rum, with cranberry and pinapple juice.
  9. UPDATE I drank 5 bay breezes (which has always been my drink of choice) felt the first 1 a lottle bit but felt it after the second one. I guess i can still handle my alchol because i got to a happy loopy buzz but i remembered everything and felt in control of what i was doing. And sobered up in an hour to perfectly deive myself home. Not saying im drinking again like that but i was able to handle a night out. Side note i could tell my stomach didnt like the alcohol because i felt a sting almost burning sinsation in my stomach. Thanks for the advice everyone!
  10. I havent drank as in a havent ordered a whole drink just for myself. When we go to dinner my boyfriend orders himself something so i like to try it out. Like the tinyest of sips. And thanks for the advice! I was a crazy party girl pre op haha! So not to drink now is nothing to me but it definitely will be exciteing to go out and have fun (im a grandma now and dont like to do anything but lay at home or the gym haha

    1 Question for everyone

    I learned two things! I got my nose pierced a year and a half ago. And i realized i did it to hopefully have people pay attention to my face and not my body. Also this is why i would dye my hair crazy colors. And i learned i have a hardcore sugar addiction. Im a baker so im always around it and i have zero will power but im trying. Its a constint battle everyday at work.

    Help! Feeling jiggly!

    Okay 6 months post op SW 259lbs Cw196lbs Gw1 170lbs Gw2 (if I don't feel too skinny 150lbs So my mid section feels jiggly and even if I hang down it hangs low. Same as when I bend down I feel like my stomach rolls most. Anyone have some fun suggestions on how to work on this problem area? I do bodycombat (mixed martial arts, kickboxing, Tae Boe karate class) and I lift. I get bored laying on the floor crunching. Yes I'm a gym class junkie lol.

    Anyone ever use Depo?

    Yeah maybe im just looking for an excuse as to why im not loosing. I had a bad eating week but other then that ive had a 2 month stla and now im going on a month stall again.
  14. I just want to know. are you at goal? If so how long did it take you? How much weight were you looking into loosing? Hows your mental state? I ask because im almost 7 months and my mind isnt catching up to my physical body. I somwtimes have trouble seeing the changes. Im 7 months out and have lost 63lbs. Im 196lbs and my first goal is a healthy bmi which would be 170lbs for my height. And from there maybe ill want to loose more. At 7 months out i felt like i would be at goal seeing as i compare myself way too much to everyone elses journey. I staled for 2 months and i believe im staling again. I just want these 26lbs gone!! Any advice on staling or just bettering myself?

    Help! Feeling jiggly!

    Thanks guys! I don't think I'm at the loose skin stage yet I feel like it's my last big bit of fat that's hanging on. I just don't want it to turn into loose skin! I'm just extra worried now ya know? I didn't think I was crazy big to end up with loose skin but maybe I'm wrong.

    I no longer like chocolate

    I've noticed now that I'm 6 months post op I actually enjoy Avocados and guacamole. I NEVER liked it before now I find myself wanting some!
  17. Loosing weight I've noticed people compliment how beautiful I am now. I went to my lung doctor for a check up and everyone was so nice to me and complimented me on how amazing I looked and how beautiful I am. My dermatologist even said I was beautiful and he said I should learn to thank people when they complement me it's all so new to me but also I can't help but feel like crap. Was I ugly before?

    Confession

    At 4 months post op I finally made it to 209. So I was supper excited to be close to onderland. But I got comfortable and ate like crap didn't keep up Protein or anything. After finally saying I didn't do this for nothing I changed little things. I started drinking more Water and upped my protein (mainly because my hair was falling out like crazy!!!) So at my 5 month post op appointment I found out I weighted 196!! Yup it took 2 months but I'm so happy but I am seeing myself go back to this slump where I'm happy where I am so I slack off so I'm back on Meal prepping for a few days and working out harder. It will take you a bit to jump back on but somwthing in your head will click and you'll jump back on the wagon! Good luck <3
  19. My mom went away on vacation for 2 weeks almost a month and a half a go. Ever since she left I haven't been able to gain control. My boyfriend stayed with me a couple times while she was away and I skipped the gym and didn't eat right all time. Since she's been back I've just been a rollarcoster of a mess I have a couples good days followed by some pretty bad days. I worked out twice this week 2 times last week then nothing the week before. The week I didn't go I had a stomach bug which made everything run right through me. I was on liquids for 4 days. Since then I'm having trouble reading introducing food. And also haven't made right choices. I just can't get a hold of myself I did 4 days of working out and sometimes meal prepped now I'm lucky if I remember to pack my lunch for work. Suggestions? I have 26lbs till goal and I just feel so hopeless.
  20. I feel like this might be a stomach infection. I've had this before but not quite like this so Idk I woke up did my normal poop and ever since then my stomach cramps up. Wasn't hungry at all like always so I had a Protein shake for Breakfast but I couldn't drink half of it without it feeling like I had to poop. So I switched to Water. I have a cramp almost like a period cramp but I bit higher. My butt feels like I have to release but every time I go nothing. The cramping is what hurts Any suggestions? Haha sorry if it's Tmi but who cares? Lol

    Type 2 (or ex) diabetic men

    Yeah I mean I'm not saying I wasn't big buy I was 259 and luckily didn't have any illness but I was almost diabetic. I know this surgery is great for those with the hardcore issues. Like my dad but the idea scares me it's weird. Thanks for your response
  22. So I've been super strick the past few days with Water I got 100oz yesterday. And was curious. As the day went on I noticed my pee go from dark as hell yellow to clear yesterday. Today I woke up and my pee is dark as hell. Is that normal or should I try to drink more at night? I know weird but I'm curious!
  23. Perhaps...but I feel very strongly about going back and gaining the weight as I have seen many others doa few years after the surgery....I will do what I have to to keep the weight off...This is life or death for me.. This is how I feel...Not that it means anything to this big world...My personal thoughts about me.... That's a great feeling but me personally agree that you seem angry. But the strive you have to better yourself and stay great is amazing. So keep it up and you do you.
  24. I agree although yeah I view fat people in a complete different way you seem more angry and disgusted. I still have sympathy because I was there and yes I was lazy but food fed my issues. And I'm still fat so I'm team fat still!
