  1. Note the word US in the subject line....Interesting US Bariatric Surgery Statistics Yes I do note that. I am not dumb.
  2. Hi all! I has surgery June 6th. It hasn't been easy but definitely worth it. I've lost total of 32lbs. Still trying to figure out how to eat properly without getting sick and getting all my nutrients in. I've been doing light exercises but hope to get to a proper class or the gym. Good luck everyone!
  3. Does this include Mexico numbers? It would be much higher if the people who went to Mexico were somehow included in the numbers!
  4. I don't believe this is shallow. There's nothing wrong with liking a man or woman who has become fit and more attractive. This is human nature. I'm sure we've all noticed someone who is fit and attractive- and wouldn't think so if they were heavier. I'm not bad or evil for liking fit men. Try not to feel so negative. It's a slippery slope to judge others as we feel judged. If men are interested in you when you lose weight---then be happy because it's your attitude that will keep them.
  5. I have the same question too and I really like the advice of no eating after 30mins. I find myself starting to graze which can lead to a slippery slope.
  6. Great story and wonderful encouragement!
  7. OP: Wow Wow Wow ..WOW! Incredible. Great work!
  8. Congratulations...It's been about 6 weeks for me. I've become a cheap date...can't order my own plate, no drinks. Saving money though!
  9. Great to hear! I went to Mexico too and had a positive experience. Goodluck fellow Canuck!
  10. No one knows except my husband. Don't tell anyone. It's none of their business and they aren't the ones to support you. Find support here.
  11. You know your option if you don't want to continue, you can also carry a child after a sleeve. It's a tough decision.
  12. Wonderful! Great Inspiration.Id like to know how you started running?
  13. Please continue with thread, some great ideas here. I start pureed and I'm actually scared of eating because I often over did it on liquids and felt sick.
  14. Great qustion. It's exactly what I want to know.
  15. I'm on the plane right now, heading to Tijuana. Will be in San Diego and driven to Mexico. Not sure how I feel. I hope this will be worth it. My sleeve surgery is scheduled for Friday June 5 at OCC. I will be in the Marriott if anyone wants to find me! Short, long dark hair. Wish me luck!
  16. Mine is June 5 in Mexico. I'm bloody excited and nervous and I can't even believe I'm doing this.
  17. P.S A LOT of people love food and aren't overweight. Just looking at the Cooking Channel, FoodNetwork etc.
  18. Great article. Informative and 100 percent accurate. I used to smoke. 25/day. I would pick cigarettes off the ground, in ashtrays and from the garbage in my numerous attempts to quit. I quit 2.5 years ago, thank Goodness. and I still dream about them. not THAT is an addiction. Not food.
  19. I would love to have low BMI friends! I just got on this site and your stories echo mine. I'm 34 BMI and my sleeve surgery is scheduled June 3rd!
  20. Bone brooth is great! Cheap, easy and full of so many nutrients. I just stared making it and it's much tastier and chock full of goodness than store bought. Google it or buy Broth Cookbook through amazon
