Goooo giiiirl!!! #Motivated

Mine too.. When i looked up and saw that I was taking 5 blood pressure pills a day & I wasn't even 40 yet.

Why is there password protection on the LGBTQ specialized forum and NOT one on the Gay,Lesbian, Bisexual &Trans forum (this one)? Why is this forum so dead? Nobody has said anything since October. I know cuffing season is over but... Nobody got nothing to say? Anything? Something? Come on Fam! Bump

O-kay thanks!

Git it girl!! Good job!

Whoah like..... I was complaining of gas for a couple weeks! I call the surgical team & the nurse had to finally tell me to get some otc gas medicine. I wondered why they just didn't tell me that from jump .....maybe they need our stomach to heal a bit to tolerate gas meds i guess *shruggs shoulders*

Yes! You just said the right thing...a vape. They are gentle. You can control the cough better...

Im a smoker... Im a choker.... Im a late night toker! (I think that's how the words go) If you are serious. ....reeeally serious about ur weightloss, im thinking some tree shouldn't deter you. If ur bs-ing, a lock-jaw procedure couldn't even save ya...u digg? I made "tea" on day 1 - broke down &lit up about 5 days after i got home from surgery...i went VERY slow. Im about 7wks out now & im just on reg pre-surgery routine. I workout. Im logging every bite of food, workout, sip of Water (&every joint if u can believe it) on a food logging app & i bet there's A TON of folks on this app/forum choking as they read this..... Control your munchies...your ass gone be puking if u let munchies control you. Ur stomach is tiny & vulnerable af rn. Bottom line is U know ur body. And I bet you have researched this surgery inside &out...so u know the signs of if something is wrong. If ur brave & in want, take a LIGHT hit of some reggies (sumn that aint too strong. Dont go rolling up some couchlock) and see how u feel. If good, go again. If not, stop. I would roll up a paper & not load a bowl or bong or blunt, pray & unplug. I would NOT do this on day 1, 2 or 3.... My bestie scolded me for not waiting a month like i said i would pre-surgery. Yes! A vape is a darn good idea...they're gentle.

Im a November 15th sleever too! Lolol! We're sleeve siblings! Yo...i been just tying tighter the drawstring on my 4x Fruit-of-da-Wally-world-Looms & wearing the free t-shirt Planet Fitness gave me for selling my soul....um, I mean signing the member contract. ..&going with that. The name brand, expensive sh#t imma wait until the weight gets waay lower. Its gonna be baggy on ya in 3weeks after u buy it.

How do i get to your video? Im using the app on my phn &cant get to the link..

Go boy!

Go giiiirl!

Amen!

Im also itching! Im 7 wks post & i think its the body going through changes bc of low calories, all these supplements & major surgery... Ya know how folks say they loose their hair? Well, maybe we itch first.... I've been moisturizing like crazy, keeping hydrated...no new detergents or soaps...this itch began for me really during pre-op diet phase when the sugar went bye-bye & the protein consumption went up... I hate this itchy sh*t but I think the changes we made fuels it on.

Guess what?? I'm NOT 300 lbs anymore!!! Hopped on scale after stalling a bit this last week & upping my calories a lil bit this weekend (I was getting less than 350 most days, upped it a bit to around 500 to 650 range) and did me a lil praise dance in the bathroom this morning! I am now down to 299.8 yall!!! I know....only a pinch off 300...but i have not seen 200-ANything since 2013.... I'm Ecstatic rn!! Had plans to join Planet Fitness today...now imma do it with the world's biggest grin on my face shake em up... Shake em up.... Shake em up... SHAKE EM! ....... Today is a good day!

Go girl! Ur looking great!

@@catwoman7 i hope so bc this increasing calories is hard! Im full before i can even swallow it good! Lolol! Good to know the sleeve's still tight...but my lil food journal says im still short on calories a day...imma call some1 about it tomorrow.

Ok its been anout 48 hrs since u posted that...how do u feel now? Bc im 8 wks out & I want some 2nite....but i dont wanna die tho... Ya know?

Just had me some (don't luagh) Kroger store calamari roll sushi (there's a booth, authentic looking asian chef & everything!) & im 8wks post sleeve. 1st few peices (2 for lunch & 2 for dinner) went down good! My lil late night snack of rebellion 1peice just had me dry heaving over the toilet for 10mins just now...... The take away - Your ass need to know when ta fold em! My mouth tastes like wasabi & ass right now...[emoji30] #ModerationIsReal

Ok thank you I'll use it it doesn't my septum and nostril Sent from my SM-G920V using the BariatricPal App The the trick is to shape it so its flush to the skin on both sides...gonna need sumn to poke it thru & out when u come outta recovery. If u do swallow it, its small....I'm just worried about my tongue trying to close around it Sent from my SM-G920V using the BariatricPal App Thick plastic string.... (just hear me out now) Thick plastic string...like the kind you make those friendship bracelets with - clear if u can find it... Thread it thru & tie it on the side & tuck the knot under ur tounge. Do it AFTER they do the mouth check (they gone do that)...let em SEE u take ur bar out & errthing. If they snip it away in surgery then u tried..have a friend at the ready when u get 2ur room with ur bar 2put it right bk in. BOOM! Prob solved!

I done messed up & told my age...????

Back in the day..... Lolol! The old folk used to cut a straw from a straw broom & put a lil clean peice of it dabved in a bit of rubbing alcohol in ur ear piercing hole to keep em open. I did that for a nose piercing for a friend b4 surgery once...it worked! Try it. You'll only need it for about 3hrs.

That's what i said this morning! Today's morning ritual had me scouring Google with that same question....apparently we have a bunch of unmoved waste in our colons & other organs in our body makes waste, not just our meals & shakes. #DigestionEducation

To all of you with awesome after pics in less than a year...i gotta ask.... Did ya ever hit stalls? or lazy points? Im 6wks post op, the snow & cold is crazy where im at so I am not walking as much as i should - but i workout some days in-home... Im not getting in the Protein shakes but am getting in the Water...calories count is a bit confusing (eat more to loose? Wtf?!) I see all these great results & after pics...did any of yall success stories include any stalling points, stubnorn moments or mess-ups? Or was it all rigid determination, perfect rules following & sucess? Help us discouraged newbies out please? Tell tha nitty gritty....
