Amusement Parks and your new tummy
Tina1977 replied to cindyt's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I am a little over 9 weeks out (sleeved on 3/20/15) and went to the fair today. First time in 10 years I was able to fit into all the rides (and not get asked to leave due to the seat belt not being able to lock properly) and I had a blast! No stomach issues, found some Protein (turkey on a stick) and made sure to keep a bottle of Water at my side. Good Luck! -

Weight Loss Attention -- how to handle
Tina1977 replied to Vikingsfan8178's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I only told 4 people in an office of 65 about my surgery and at first the attention was horrible. All the "wow, you look great " from people who never spoke to me before was hard. I was almost in tears, feeling like I was a horrible person before surgery. My boss told me to smile and say Thank you. So far it has worked. Now people are asking what I am doing to lose weight. My response is eat less, drink water, drink water and exercise plus more of the drinking water. Which is all true. I bust my behind at the gym and truly eat a lot less. I had to get mind used to the compliments. It was very hard. Good luck to all! -
Surgery Buddies, who was sleeved 3/25/15 or that week
Tina1977 replied to tamelntre's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I was sleeved on 3/20/15 and total weight gone is 35 pounds since surgery. I hit a 3 week stall that just ended a few days ago. I changed up my exercise routine and food intake and the scale moved again. I actually fit on the ALL carnival rides today..... first time since 2007. I was so happy I happy I cried. Good Job to everyone! It's not an easy journey, but it's YOUR journey, make the most of it. -

New to this site. Sleeve on 3/20/15. Hit a STALL!
Tina1977 posted a topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
New to this type of online stuff and don't usually join in, but I feel like I have hit a wall and might help so I don't want to give up. I was doing so well until 2 1/2 weeks ago. Down 42 pounds since January, 28 pounds since surgery on 3/20/15. Now, nothing in over 2 weeks! I am taking it very hard and feel like I should give in and get a Big Mac with extra sauce (just a thought... I have not caved, I try to exercise instead). I expected to lose tons of pounds at first like the people on TV. Has this happened to others or am I broken?
