  1. [emoji24][emoji24][emoji24]...REAL TALK!!!!!
  2. Hi Ebony, I can't say that I no longer have diabetes. But, I can say, I haven't had to take any medicine since I ve had the surgery Feb 20th. Amazing to me because I was where you are. Just remember everybody is different . Well wishes to you.
  3. I totally get it!!! But, what i realized is that without this tool I see where I would've only continued in my foolishness with food. It's know different than a no good man (or woman) that you won't leave, a dead end job that you stay at. ITS TIME TO SHAKE THINGS UP!!!! GET OUT OF "THE FAT THOUGHT" FRAME OF MIND. We've been their far to long. When i cook for others or go get dinner for others, I do wish that I could. BUT IM GLAD THAT I CANT. IM sooo weak in my own strength and I know I would've have fallen over and over again and remained in my rut. My new normal is no way easy, but I'm sooo glad about it!!! Thank you Jesus. Just like any other lost that you have no control over, it get better with time. There's sooo many different variations to the food that you use to eat, just a healthier version of it. I JUST LOVE THAT!!! It will be ok....BELIEVE THAT IT WILL...KICK DEPRESSION TO THE SAME CURVE YOU KICKED OTHER PROBLEMATIC THINGS IN OUR LIVES. You've taken charge of you life. NOW WALK LIKE A BOSS AND GO GET YOUR BLESSINGS!!! HAPPY EASTER #RESURRECTEDFEB20thSLEEVER2017
  4. YOU LOOK MARVELOUS!!!!! Keep it going , you got this.

  8. That's one on the reasons I haven't gone. I just think it maybe the skin. That's just a guess, I'm right at 7 weeks out. Way to go on the lost...WOOOHOOO!!!!
  9. Many blessing to all of you upcoming sleevers. Don't forget to take God with you. Through all the up and downs that may come during your first few days of post op just know, IT WILL BE OK!!! I wish you all the success and strength that you will need during this journey. There's plenty of room for all of you on the LOSERS BENCH. CHEERS [emoji898][emoji898][emoji898][emoji898] to us!!!

  10. Look at you!!!!!! Awesome
  11. Me me me!!! I'm staying away from the scale but all my clothes no longer fit. I still have some pain. Had a ultra sound this morning to check gall bladder , won't know results until my doctor receives them. Other than that...IM GREAT and happy with my progress. How are you Misskim? Look at you Katyasmommy...gooooo you!!!
  12. I felt the same way!!![emoji23][emoji23][emoji23]. I just don't post as much. Regardless of what forum your in, if you ask a question or comment you should get some sort of response. This is SOCIAL media....Right???! So now I'm more of a lurker[emoji102][emoji102][emoji102][emoji102].
  13. You can do it!!!!! Blessing , Blessing and many more Blessings. What a wonderful husband and father.
  14. I don't know what some people went through and I'm not much of a sucker. BUT mine hurt, and it's still has a tender but healing hurt. I'm 35 days out, I see some people says they didn't experience much pain. Everyone is different OR SOMEBODY IS LIEING!!!![emoji23]
  15. It's Lent time,tell them you gave up meat and fast food. I been wearing that out!!![emoji23][emoji23][emoji23]
  16. My Dr office has a pre op diet you can purchase from them one or two weeks. The diet is to shrink you liver so it can be moved safely to get to your stomach. Being obese more than likely gives you fatty liver disease . Feburary sleever from Louisiana
  17. Yes it is or you will hurt yourself. I was hungry a few days after surgery and it wasn't head hunger. Sometimes now I have head hunger and regular hunger. I make sure I follow all guidelines though. It's really not worth it, I did this for a reason and I think all the time that I would still be in the same boat if I could still eat like I use to. I'm 35 days out, I still feel some tenderness hurt some constipation...still no regrets. Many blessings on ur surgery date and new journey.
  18. Welcome to the other side.....LOSER!!!!!! Congrats dear.
  19. Congrats!!!!! Sip sip sip....Blessings on your journey
