  1. Some are worse then others. My psych changed mine to find the best non weight gaining meds.
  2. Hang in there guys, take it a day at a time, you'll be on the losers bench before you know it
  3. Sorry to hear you still need pain meds this far out from surgery.
  4. A 2 month old horse. Far out!
  5. Have you spoken to your Doctor - maybe they can refer you to a therapist to speak to. Get on top of these feelings before they get worse. Best wishes
  6. My fitness goals for 2018 are to complete a 5 km run and to hit the gym 3 times each week. I'm planning on going to Hawaii in Jan 2019 so I need to get in shape by then
  7. Are you tracking your food? It looks like you have a fair few carbs in your meals. I find that if I eat more protein I don't get hungry. Good luck with your weight loss
  8. Glad to hear you are recovering well. 10 inches off your waist is amazing! Great work
  9. No regrets, I wish I did it 5 years ago!
  10. I felt 100% by that time. I was eating normal food so energy level wasn't a problem. I was at the gym 3 -4 times a week.
  11. Congrats! Great job especially over the holiday season
  12. Never even heard of these before.
  13. It took me a long time to decide between the sleeve and bypass. What made me make a decision was speaking to an oncologist who said that there are certain cancer medications that bypass patients can't take. (no other forms of these drugs available, please don't ask me the names, I can't remember). I didn't want to be put in a position that I regretted my surgery choice because I couldn't have a medication that I needed. So I chose the sleeve. I love my sleeve, I'm confident I've made the right decision for me. Good luck on your journey.
  14. Well done on the weight loss. I'm Australian too, I had to google how many kg's equal 100 pounds. It sounds good to say 'I've lost 100 pounds'..
  15. I've lost weight this week. Who would have thought I'd lose weight Christmas week!!. I would have been happy if I didn't put on weight and move backwards. I love my sleeve.
  16. Congratulations, glad you are doing well.
  17. Congratulations!! Great work.
  18. @Rainbow_Warrior I totally agree - seeing an exercise physiologist was one of the best decisions I've made. I really appreciated their support and the way they tailored a program for me.
  19. I'm 4 months post op. I've lost 45 kg /100 lbs. I can eat about 1/2 cup at a time - almost 1/2 a sandwich. I have 3 meals a day - about 600 - 800 calories.
