KristenLe got a reaction from OKCPirate in Online dating
I got so tired of being alone that I did online dating. I only joined websites for chubby people (datingcurves). I met some scam artists, sleazeballs, some nice guys and eventually my boyfriend of nearly 7 years. He's seen me at my worst and I hope after WLS our relationship gets even stronger (and the sex better). . I honestly never thought I could put myself out there - especially being obese - but I did and as my sister used to tell me - you're not going to meet anyone sitting at home! Just be safe!

KristenLe got a reaction from VSGAnn2014 in Is there a limit on protein?
That sounds like too many Protein shakes for both the protein content and calories. I would speak to your NUT about what your daily intake should be. Too much protein can cause kidney issues so be sure to find out what your Surgeon/NUT recommend. -

KristenLe reacted to 4MRB4PHOTO in 40 and Ready for My Surgery 4/1816 Any pointers?
There is no need to resort to name calling (calling her a "Ho"). Dub, I use to think so highly of you.
(Just kidding, I know you didn't press the "w" key hard enough)

KristenLe reacted to Juhygtfrdsd in April 27th is my VSG date!
I really did not have to jump through hoops but i recommend the hoops cause so many think this is easy that its gonna be a breeze and its permission to eat what they want....
This is EXTREMELY hard...its a new life new beginning BUT its up to everyone to keep it going....

Make sure you are drinking enough Water and getting enough Protein. Your surgery will be successful! Stay positive!

KristenLe got a reaction from Andrea72 in Why didn't I know how bad it's gotten?
Don't tell anyone but when I used to travel alot for work... I "borrowed" an extender and take it with me every time I fly. . The anxiety of asking for one every time was awful (and humiliating depending on who was near you). I hope the next time I fly I won't need it.

KristenLe reacted to FayBee in Surgeons Goal vs Personal Goal
I wouldn't even want to be 115! I would like to have some curves!
I think it's my fault I asked what the "ideal" weight is for someone my height. But that's not why he expects me to get to.

KristenLe reacted to kmorri in Why didn't I know how bad it's gotten?
@KristenLe.....wow! I think that's a great idea! Hopefully I'll never need one but I know now that if I ever did I would only ever have to ask for one ONCE...hahaha

Bookmark this post so you can look back on it a year from now. It will seem like it was a lifetime ago.
You're going to be so thankful for this surgery!

KristenLe reacted to Elode in Women....painful sex after WLS?
I can't answer that because had my husband tried any monkey business that soon after surgery the only thing that would have hurt would have been his face and pride. Ummmm NO! I'd say give it some more healing time. Your brain may say yes but even your vajaja is like "hell to the NO!" I'd listen to your body!

KristenLe reacted to pr_pitbullgrl in Funny observation about clothes post-surgery
one other thing i will tell you. if you order a dress from china (which i did by accident) an XL is apparently a size 10 there. smh. and even then it's tight! also the quality sucks. like i literally brought a whole nother change of clothes just in case this dress ripped down the middle seam. just an fyi.

KristenLe reacted to tiffanymarie6997 in Liquid diet day 2-STRUGGLING
Figured I'd post an update! Now I'm on day 9 and my surgery is Monday. It does seem easier now, when I don't allow myself to think about it. I've been trying to stay occupied which is challenging because I'm generally a boring person lol. I am surviving though and in the beginning I didn't know if I could make it through the 2 weeks. I'm almost there! 41 shakes down, 29 to go!

KristenLe reacted to NeedaBreak4Me in Need support .. Tempted to cancel surgery
Thank you for the detailed reply...
I have been on Optifast for 5 days and ive lost 9lbs... which is great!
After getting the band removed ive been eating well for 12 months and doing everything "right" and still gained.. so im glad there is movement on the scales and clothes.
I guess im going to have to be a big girl now and just accept the fact that i couldn't do it on my own.
I really hope everything works out for everyone on here.
You do not understand how much your support means to me... since no one really understands what we go through on a daily basis
