I just got my phone call for my first appointment with my surgeon! I'm so stoked I already completed the seminar online! And have been doing the physical therapy , NUT, and counseling since August! It's coming so real ????

I currently only wear 3x loose fit black yoga pants.. Not tight yoga's by any means, jeans just squish and pinch in all the wrong places. But I would be a 22-24 in jeans. I think after my surgery I'll stick to yoga's until weight loss slows down. I hate shopping! Lol but I think after I get down and I have all that energy I'll love shopping again, congratulations on all your successes ???????? I can't wait to be going through these kinds of problems. Reading the forums is just getting me more excited.

I still have a ways to go to get the surgery and my significant other mentioned what I am doing to a friend of his and he swore I don't look like I need to lose enough weight for surgery lol we just got a big giggle out of it, I had only met him a few times so I actually liked the fact that's size was not something he noticed ???????? so far everyone I have told has been excited for me..

I smoke since I was 13 and I'm now 42 it helped a lot

I just started my journey as well. I see the nutritionist for the first time next week and I already had my consultation. I have to quit smoking . can u give me tips on how?

My doctor gave me Zyban to quit, hope I spelt that right. Anyway I took it for a month each week cutting my amount I would smoke a day starting with week one 20 a day week two was 15 a day and so on... I had gym through the house and car and walk when it got bad. Still gained weight but I made it. Oh and my favorite app for tracking calories fat carbs ect.. Is mynetdiary love it keeps me on track my NUT was impressed with it.

Oh and how do you edit your profile? So far I have only figured out how to add a profile pic everything else says I haven't added it yet hehe

Hello everyone, I am on my 6 month journey to get the gastric bypass ( at least that's the one I want) I've seen my dietician , physical therapist, and counselor for a month now so ( more to go. My biggest challenge is the amount of weight I have to loose. I was 292 when my doc submitted my paperwork to insurance so that is the weight they go by..... But..... I then quit smoking and my weight shot up to 317 but they are going by 5% of my body weight of submitted paperwork!! I'm currently 298 almost back to prior quit smoking still have like 22 pounds to go.
