  1. Congrats keep up the good work! You look great!
  2. I haven't been on in awhile, it's not a real active forum. I enjoy reading the post when I do log in so I should make it a point to get on every day! I had gastric bypass 12-14 my beginning weight was 240lbs and as of today I'm 107lbs. Really I've finally stopped losing around 2 months ago. I got scared bc my intention was to get to around 125 and when I kept dropping I started freaking out all I thought about was if I didn't figure out how to stop it I would end up dying. I'm 42 yrs old 5'3 and I was starting to look like a meth user. I was a size 20/22 I am now in a size 0. I'm able to eat better and I do a lot of praying and talking to God.
  3. oops didnt realized I had already responded to this months ago.
  4. I found Unjury brand the best. All flavors are smooth and not gritty.
  5. It's all in the way you heal. Smoking causes vasoconstriction which prevents proper blood flow hence causing ischemia tissue death. So its not worth taking a chance. And you really do want that pouch to heal!
  6. How long will your body continue to lose weight after surgery? When do you reach where your body stalls and you're at your new weight. The maintenance phase. I don't want to be finished I want to lose more. Surgery Dec. 12,2015. Pre surg. Weight 240 Size 18 Today 140lbs. Size 6. Do I still have time before my body gets in that comfort zone. Those of you with loose skin on the arms Will it slowly shrink or is it just gonna be like this? Thanks~Laura
  7. After you walk sit on edge of chair like it is your toilet bend over massaging your lower belly and rock a little this will increase motility as well.
  8. So true it's really moderation and what you can tolerate if you stop right before you take the final bite when you're still in the comfortable zone i think you'd be fine but if you push it each time until you reach uncomfortable zone you're gonna have problems.
