Welcome!!! This site has a wealth of knowledge. Just pick and choose what you need and disregard everything else. Follow everything your team says and enjoy your journey!! Again Welcome

I say whatever it takes to put a smile on our faces. My hubby always tells me to go buy stuff that I want and sometimes I can resist but not always. The sad thing is you know how they tell us to be careful that cross-addiction is a biggy thing for WL People!! I can say yep I got it!! Hubby wanted me to become Sex addicted, NOPE didn't happen...shopping YES MAM!! It is so sad...I look in y closet and I have stuff I haven't even worn. At first, I had people that could wear some of my clothes that got too big. But now I don't have anyone to give them too. I guess I am a creature of habit for sure. I find a blouse that I like and I get kind of stuck on them. LOL Go shopping and love every minute of it!! We do deserve it. Have a great day!!

I'm so glad this helped you. Another thing "Take it one day at a time"!!! Just think you are getting so close to your journey. Keep on doing it for yourself!!!

I think Congratulations will be in order!!! Having your revision, getting healthy and then getting married!!! What a cute picture. Love it!!

Hi, I also have Fibromyalgia and since my RNY I have pretty much continued to walk. I walk 3 to 4 times a week, 3 to 4 miles each time. This is the only exercise I do. It has got better as I lost my weight. I can't say that I don't have pain, I never had problems with my knees before my surgery. Now it is bad!! I have had Ultra-sound guided Gel shots in my knee's also Steroid shot. I ask why it happened after I lost my weight, my DR told me that if I hadn't waited I would be in a wheelchair!! I am so glad it waited to plague me!! I find that walking is great for me: I call it my attitude adjustment time!!! I can be having a rough day and go for my walk and I come back happy!! Good Luck

Remember why you are doing this. Keep your eyes on the prize. They do make these add to ur water packets. They are SF and come in Root beer flavor also Orange Crush. They taste like POP without the fizzy. Good stuff and they only cost $1.00. You can do this!! KEEP ON KEEPING ON!!

I would love to go horseback riding again!!!! My love for horses has never changed. I was 12YO when I got my Mare Taffy. I rode every day. One way or the other I got up every morning went to the pasture and away we went. We got home just before dark!!! I had her from 12 years old until I had my 2nd child. I was 23YO and at first, I took my 5YO son with me but....I didn't know how to take 2 with me. So I ended up getting rid of her. She was the joy of my life until I had my babies. I still miss her so much, she was there for me so much more than anyone else could or would be. I hope my visions of her last days were resting and grazing on her sweet hay!!! Taffy, I love and miss you so much!!!

The chicken noodle is yummy!!! Also, the hot chocolate is good too. If you are a coffee drinker I can share something with you. Make your coffee add the Hot Chocolate drink and whisk. YUM YUM Plus you get protein in it. A win-win in my book. Good Luck and keep us in the know.

YAY!!! Nothing taste as good as getting the weight off!! YOU'VE did great!!! KEEP ON KEEPING ON!!

It is so hard!! Protein drinks can be so hard to swallow. There are other options. You might need to check out some stores that sell and ship protein stuff. I have used a Chicken Noodle Soup from BariatricPal. There are very few noodles but you can strain them. They are really tasty, and they have 15grams of protein. You might need to get creative and try mixing some nonflavored Protein in Sugar-Free Pudding or Jello. I buy GENEPRO unflavored Protein I add it to my ESPRESSO. You can't taste it at all. To be honest I tried so many proteins I would hate to know how many $$'s I spent. GENEPRO actually saved me. I can hardly use protein drinks now, sometimes it makes me shudder. LOL Good Luck with your WLS surgery.

If it doesn't quit you might tell your Surgeon about it. Might be a Stricture. Easy fix. Don't wait too long, we can get dehydrated really fast. Sorry, this is happening. Take care of you!!

Yes, I have been COLD up until about 3 months ago!! I am 4 years out too. My hormones have been crazy and I started having hot flashes and night sweats again. I even had to start taking Estrovon. (over the counter hormones) I shouldn't be doing this as I had a HYTRO 30 some odd years ago. LOL But up until this I was always freezing!! It is pretty common I guess, we are losing our insulation!!

Good for you!!! You are doing GREAT!!!

AWESOME!!! KEEP ON KEEPING ON!! Good job on your weight loss.

YAY!!! It feels wonderful doesn't!! It makes you feel so good, nothing taste as good as seeing the scale go down and feeling so much healthier!!! Great Job!! KEEP ON KEEPING ON!!!

YAY!!!! Cottage Cheese is a great choice. When you are thru all of your steps try this. Cottage Cheese with a small amount of SF or low sugar Strawberry Jelly. It kind of taste like strawberry cheesecake. YUM YUM
