Ladies I found a great plus size consignment shop in Fairfield on route 4 before you get to jungle jims. It's called Just Her Size Consignments. Super cute. It's down in the shopping center behind Frich's.

My new journey in life
I wish I had a pivotal moment where my eyes became crystal clear and I could see the light with my weight problem on my own. But I don't have one. I was in a severe car accident and have a severe back injury. I've had multiple surgeries and nothing seems to help. I was pretty maintained in pain level for a good year when in July I woke up one day to severe back pain. I couldn't even put pants on. But I put on a skirt and went to work anyway. I was in so much pain. My supervisor sent me home. On the way home the pain was so intense and blinding I ran my car off the road over a curb and into a field. I had to call 911. A billion imaging tests later my spine surgeon told me my discs had pretty much completely disintegrated in l4 l5 and l5 s1. My vertebrae were bone on bone. He said it's more painful in younger people for some reason. So I said "ok what do we do next" and he said "nothing". He told me any surgery done would be rendered useless due to my weight and told me to try medical weight loss. After a consultation type thing we decided weight loss surgery would be best due to my physical disability. And here we are. I finish my last requirement the 21st (hopefully sleep study is next week) and I'll be good to go.

Depends on your system. Check with your nutritionist to be sure. Try a ricttota bake. Basically the filling for stuffed shells topped with cheese and tomato sauce baked in a ramekin. Good Protein and filling. If your NUT allows it, chopped sauteed spinach is one of the easier veggies to take in at first. Spinach is also a good source of Vitamins & Fiber with a bit of protein to boot. Also you can swap out plain greek yogurt for sour creme. I prefer FAGE 0% greek yogurt. It's less fat than regular sour cream and a nice bit of protein. Now I want quiche. Thanks to this thread.

My Big Fat Fabulous Life - Do you watch it?
I don't know how I feel about it. I watched a kind of look back episode and I was intrigued. I'd like to do a mental health assessment on her. I bet it would be fascinating. The oddest part is her best guy friend. She says they love each other but are dating other people. Were they ever together?

Private Fat loss
I knew tight wasn't the right word that's why it was in quotes. Ugh. Not tight like "oooh yeah so tight" sexual pleasure but like the doctor said he could Not. See. Anything. And couldn't place my mirena. He said after weight loss it should be easier to place. Maybe "fleshy" is the word. "Crushed tissue by fat."

Death and WLS
No. The staples stay in for the sleeve forever. This was like 2 weeks out from surgery. My surgeon does an inverted close up. He staples, folds it over and stitches it closed as well.

- My wedding rings during surgery
So I have pretty diamonds on my wedding ring but it looks weird without my engagement ring. I was thinking, given my profession and clientele, that I would wait and size out of these and get a nice wedding band. Thoughts?- Hospital stay
Uuuugh I hate staying the hospital. I've been there for 8 days in a row before so this is considerably less. I just hate it so much. Just slice me open, sew me up and send me home to my nice warm comfy bed with my heating blanket and no one to bother me.- Work biggest loser challenge
I would be mad to be honest.- Death and WLS
I've heard tale of someone who ripped their staples open and died of infection.- I need to vent/complain....
I don't think I have ever weighed the same on 2 scales or weighed the same for more than a few hours at a time lol.- When you are too big to manage your period...
Don't feel bad. I can't wipe my own butt. I had to stop wearing tampons years ago. Try peeing in a cup lol. It's so gross. Oh as for pads. Use depends pads and/or underwear. Works fabulous!!- Private Fat loss
My doctor told me the fat is why I'm so "tight" and he had trouble seeing my cervix for the Mirena insertion.- Struggling with boredom eating
I knit. Gives my hands something repetitive to do.- Advice needed how to word a request for meds. Story in comments
Ask for what you need. I work at a drug rehab. I also go to a pain clinic and am in and out of hospitals due to chronic pain from a spinal injury. I just tell them when I need more. I've never been accused of drug seeking. It's all in our heads in my opinion. - My wedding rings during surgery
