  1. How's it going everyone? I'm wondering at almost 6 months in if anyone is having any setbacks or issues? I am at a stall but am hoping I jump out soon. I have had horrible bloating and gas pains for going on three days. Any advice on getting it to mosey on its way? I'm a 1st grade teacher so I'm always walking. The gas just feels "stuck"

  3. Hey there!! I'm at my half way point! Down 56 lbs since surgery! My dr actually told me I should be losing more. I was shocked. He said because I am so short (4.11) it will fall off slower. Grrrreat. But honestly I am very happy! I have not bought new clothes yet, just wearing belts but I'm thinking about jean shopping. With losing this weight I actually had a breast cancer scare but thankfully just a benign cyst that has probably been there a while. I haven't bought new bras or anything. I'm honestly kind of scared. I think I am still a 0-1x and I'm so done shopping in the "women's" section so will wait a bit longer.

  6. How many pounds SmileyBear? TeeNahh!!! You look awesomeeeee.
  7. It was not edible. I just ate the sauce. It had lots of yummy veggies and meat. I really can't tolerate noodles. It hurts but noodles are part of why I got into trouble in the first place. By the way, as tough as recovery was I have NO regrets. I'm down 48 lbs and tomorrow is our 3 month mark!! It's not as fast as some people but I am beyond thrilled. I'm almost half way!!!
  8. TeeNah, I tried to make the spaghetti squash but as I started forking it... It turned to mush! Did I cook it too long?
  9. Yep they told me that too. Argh!
  10. Have any of you guys had an alcoholic beverage yet?
  11. Oh my gosh guys! I am in misery! My sons bday is today so we went to chili's for dinner. I had a few tortilla chips and soup. Now, I feel like complete shit. I have been throwing up pure liquid but internally my pouch is hurting for short bursts of time. Ughhhhh. This is awful!!!

  21. That is soooo true! I'm actually back to feeling good! I never thought it would take so long but ultimately it was worth it. I hope the weight keeps falling off for you! I don't have a trainer I have first graders. Lol! Keep me posted on your progress!!

  24. I'm good! Being back to work has helped a lot (I'm a teacher) and I'm at 35 lbs down. I still have a looong way to go but I'm very happy! I worried about being back to work with the food issues but it has been great for me!
