      @kmorri I am so glad that you are feeling better today! Thank you for sharing with us!!!

      Kmorri, you mentioned that you finished greek yogurt today. I didn't think we were allowed to have yogurt in phase 1. I'm just asking because I need to know what may work for me also since my surgery date is 5/24.

    4. Christinamo7

      Christinamo7

      there are a lot of plans out there. I went from clear liquids in the hospital to full liquids at home, and I was told yogurt was fine, but that I might need to thin it out with milk. check with your plan for your specifics.

       

  2. Maybe someone should post a list of topics that are now allowed.....We can call it, "Any post regarding these topics are subject to snarky responses"...hahaha

  6. Good morning BP gang!! I finally jumped over the 100 pound mark.....as of this morning I've lost 101 pounds....I was going to wait to post because I'm also just one pound away from reaching my goal.....but I thought what the heck I'll celebrate both! December 16th was 7 months post op for me....I have a follow-up with my surgeon tomorrow so today I'll look around for the lightest clothes I can wear to that appointment...hahahaha

  7. So getting rid of 72 pounds feels GREAT!!!....I've loved being able to do things I haven't been able to do is so long....walking my literal butt off .....However, my knees are letting me know I've lost my mind with the jogging that I've tried....my knees are KILLING me right now!!!

  8. So as of this morning...4.5 months after my surgery I am down a total of 80 pounds!! 80 POUNDS!!! Can you believe it??!!! I actually wore a size 10 jeans out to dinner last night! (okay they were big 10s but they were 10s)....on the day of surgery I wore a size 22 to the hospital. I wonder when my amazement will wear off? I hope it never does!!! Everyone have a great weekend!!!

      I am two years post op and i am still amazed almost every day. I went car shopping a few weeks ago and normally we will buy a smaller SUV. Well we were looking at cars instead and i hopped in a tiny little Nissan thinking I would be claustrophobic in there. I got in an had so much room that it felt like a whole different car. Never did i think even car shopping would be so fun. I kept trying to find the smallest cars just to see how i fit in them. Previously I did not fit well in smaller cars, i always had to go for a SUV. Everything still shocks me.

      I weigh a lot just out of morbid curiosity. However, I only count it as official once a week. this has allowed me to see that it is normal for my body to go up and down through the week but an overall trend downward. it is helping me to make peace with this process.

      Kmorri, I saw video yesterday of A1A washed away somewhere in Flagler Co., but didn't see exactly where. Have you heard about Anastasia I. yet? St. Augustine and Jax really got whacked, didn't they? My folks are farther south and farther inland so they just got a LOT of rain and 70 mph winds. Cleaned out their live oaks without dropping any of them :) Glad you're safe!

      @Valentina.....haha No! we don't have a president now or for that matter one in contention for the job that I would consider singing to! But yes I knew that about Marilyn Monroe....and quite frankly with all the vanity sizing they do now I bet back in her day a 14 was probably what our size 6 is now.

      Don't even get me started on politics!!!!!!!!!!! I WANT ANOTHER CHOICE!!!!!!!!!!! :)

      I've read that Marilyn was sown into the dress she wore "that" night, but WOW!!! Lady, that was nooo size 6!! No with all of those curves------must be like looking into a mirror for you, right? :)

      You are just rock'n this WLS thing.

      thank you @Valentina.............and I'm with you on the politics.....I want another choice as well. I have no idea what I'm going to do in November....it's a very sad and scary thing we're about to head into......I hate even thinking about it!
