  1. Going to a spa and having to wear a towel in front because the one size fits all bathrobe wouldn't close
  2. I'm not a surgeon but I think it's not the end PhD the world but of course you should be honest with your surgeon, that way you'll feel safe
  3. I'm embarrassed to ask, but I can't stop burping the past two days and its really embarrassing. Is this normal? If not any idea what its from? Too much food, eating too fast, or the kind of foods? Thanks I really appreciate everyone's help
  4. I have some bras from when I was 200 lbs skinnier almost brand new. I'm wondering if it's worth it to save it because I had a baby and nursed for a year, does that make a bigger cup, or its it only the weight and once I lose it will fit?
  5. If someone only wants you for your body, it's a bad sign. True love is beyond that
  6. Thanks so much Liz, I didn't think I'd get this much support, its very encouraging
  7. When will the next meeting be? I just joined and live in NYC
  8. Hello I just joined and wonder when the next meeting will be? I live in nyc
  9. Wow BeautifullyCreated1982 you are amazing!! I was actually given a three week pre op diet and cheated throughout...I felt horrible about myself and was honest with my surgeon but thank g-d he said it was alright and I didn't have any complications. But no cheating on the post op diet because that really is dangerous!!! Wishing you the best of luck!!!
  10. Thank you so much everyone for your support!
  11. Okay so here I am, two weeks post op and I lost 20 lbs so far thank G-d! I'm 21 years old and mother to one toddler. I need to lose 200 lbs so I know it will be a long journey... I was 180 pounds three years ago, since I'm tall and broad I was not fat but also not skinny. Then I became pregnant and gained 64 lbs...after my baby I tried losing weight. I tried OA, the blood type diet, Atkins...my problem was I would diet binge diet binge diet binge...so for every pound I lost I gained two...one year and a hundred pounds later I started thinking of surgery. I have a lap band , and am ready for the next chapter of my life!
