  1. Avocado with Olive oil Sea Salt and Pepper or Almonds something with good fat in it.
  2. I was told the 2pm start was because he does his rounds till 2 but maybe that is just a Generalization and it varies. The part I Love is that he limits the amount of surgeries he performs per day and his ability to put you at ease when he comes in Pre-Op. When he walked out of the room prior to Surgery I felt at ease knowing that he and his Staff were going to take the Very Best Care of me. I didn't realize all that I had given up by allowing this weight to strangle the Life out of me.
  3. I believe anything after 12 would be Safe we met in the Lobby at 9am and headed to the airport.
  4. I have always been Social but the weight loss has gotten me back out in the World and the Confidence has really came back. The Great thing about all of this is that todays woman is so much more open to FWB and it allows you to have multiple Partners. I am so thankful for this tool that has helped me get my Life Back!!!
  5. Once she lands and sees the level of Care you receive it will be a totally different story. I have never been treated so well at a Medical Facility in my Life!!! She is the Lucky one because the Companion also gets treated like Royalty by all of the Valets and Staff. Bill, Stacy and Dr. Illan have put together the most amazing Family (because the word Staff doesn't do them Justice) to Help you through this Life Changing Adventure.
  6. Dr. Illan starts his Surgeries after 2.p.m. and usually Ladies first (He is such a Gentleman). I Promise this will be the Best Decision you have ever made. I was so impressed that if time allows I will never have Surgery in the States again.
  7. I can solve that Problem with a Shewee it actually looks like Fun for Y'all lol. I guess they do complicate matters for a woman but to me they are Awesome, I keep my wallet and phone in my Chest Pocket so they are Super Convenient.
  8. @EmEdge Just Do It they are so Comfortable and you can accessorize them easily to give them a little Bling. I have every Color they make and always get Compliments on them. My Favorite pair is probably my Railroad Style with the Blue & White Stripes. I have been lifting again so hopefully one day in 18 months or so I can make them look Fly at the Beach with the No Shirt look.
  9. I LOOOOOVEEEE Overalls because you can wear them through about 6 Pant sizes because of the side buttons plus they keep you from displaying your Plumbers Crack. I buy Round House Brand they are American Made and Fit Well. I buy 2 New Pair every 2 Months. Heck I wear them everywhere even to the Club. This post has me thinking though and I believe I will clean out my Closet this weekend.
  10. Just think of all the time you will save not having to Clean out Belly Button Lint now lol. Plus now you can get a neat tattoo there and no one would even realize it was missing.
  11. Almonds, Beef Jerky, Avocados, Pickles, and Deli and Cheese rolls
  12. Look into Lexapro it is prescription but it has Helped me Tremendously it takes about 3 weeks to get into your system but when it does life is Amazing. They have a prescription called Ativan that is fast acting and good for getting you through attacks but it doesn't last near as long as the Lexapro.
  13. Thank You I am hoping to get about another 120lbs off in the next 18 months and then a trip to the Dominican Republic for Plastics by Dr. Goico. I am really spending the time researching and following up on his patients.
  14. The weight loss and Beauty in a Box ( Just For Men Beard Die) have helped me to go back in time by a couple of years and it feels Great.
  15. I would park at the Airport and get a ride over the Border with a BariatricPal driver for several reasons mostly because it allows your Companion to have a worry free trip and focus on helping you. Also on the trip back the time saved on going through the medical lane alone would be worth it. I would also like to add you will Extremely Surprised at how well you will be treated. It is like a Vacation with a Surgery thrown in.
  16. Images added to a gallery album owned by 2-Liter in Before and After Gastric Sleeve Photos
    Pic on the Left was not quite my High Weight of 513 and the Right was Last Week at 350
  17. Not only are the Changes Amazing but the Fact that you are 2.5 years Post Op shows that you changed your whole Lifestyle and that this was not just a Trendy Diet Helper for you. Congratulations you look Awesome!!!
  18. 299 is waiting right around the Corner for you and that will be another Great Goal achieved. I am excited for you Bro.
  19. I have been following a Keto Style Meal Plan and my Body seems to work well with it. I am able to have weight loss at a moderate pace and I feel good most of the time. I limit my meals to three 4oz meals and one Snack a day. Take a look on Facebook or Google and see if this might be a option for you. Grazing all day has always been a problem for me and I was in such denial that I wouldn't have believed it if you told me, so that is something I have to fight daily.
  20. You are doing Great!!! By being Brave I am sure you have Inspired many more to stay the course.
  21. I needed some Idea what the total pounds this community has lost would look like, so thanks to my friend Google I now know. We have lost over 4 fully loaded 747-8's the worlds Largest Passenger Airplane. The weight could fill an Olympic Swimming Pool 2/3rd s of the way full and also fill a Water tower. Wow that's Truly Amazing, lets keep it going and work towards loosing a Oil Tanker full of unwanted, unneeded FAT!!!
  22. Roller Skating is Great Exercise but as a former Owner of a Rink Please Please Please be the UnCool Kid and wear wrist guards. Adults don't fall as well as kids and their bones are usually more brittle. Wrist and teeth were always the most common injuries, usually at no fault to the Adult but trying to avoid a reckless little one.
  23. Take a look at a Yoga DVD something like DDP Yoga. All of these movements are done right in your comfortable space a t home and Help with Greater Flexibility and Controlled Breathing as well as a Wonderful form of exercise.
  24. Honestly I have Never tasted Broth that good ever before, definitely a must have for anyone going to TJ.
  25. John925 those results are Awesome, I know you have to feel a thousand times Better.
