Kraft French onion chip dip, the one that Tastes,like you stirred the beef onion soup in. That was one of my guilty pleasures. And I would grab the white cheddar Cheezits if a small bag went galloping by .

Weight Loss success- got to 💓it÷

Did anyone find out what NOOM, COM IS?

Chili, it will be grainy and gritty, okay as long as it doesn't remind you of sand or fine kitty litter. Your sandwich, ditch the bread, don't really need it, and add some liquid. Yeah many items can be pureed, I like applesauce and peaces canned in no syrup, own juice or water-pack.

And the missing above,term is pale, pale🙅& pasty gray.🙀

Worse in the mirror, lighting is usually off and I think I look more or pasty than I usually am. Keep in mind it is the edge of Winter in Ohio and I have lost most of not all of my summer tan. All that remains are freckles and age spots. And if I went back to wearing makeup I have to get a lighter shade, what I have now 2 shades too tanned and dark.😴🙈🙉🙊👌

@wiscogal Happy 1st SURGIBIRTHDAY ANNIVERSARY and thank you for starting this NSV thread. NOW you have earned your Veteran. wings and I am still trying to get my wings to work right, only 12 weeks out, and. part of the time,8 am not sure they will hold me up!

He Has, He Sustains, and without Him I would be lost, lonely and less the person that I Am. Just had my late night puking, a good half hour going down , mini-spoon by mini-spoon and less than 5 minutes to come back up. I said earlier I was uneasy about open surgery, after this last upchuck I WOULD WELCOME,IT! I feel broken! And that is the bottom line.💦

Update, they called from my baraiatric clinic , just before their closing time. My surgeon , Dr Needleman, who is also the chief off Bariatric Medicine wants to see me tomorrow himself in his office at 2, no shunting me off to a N.P. or his partner Dr Noria on Wednesday. He must see something in my chart to concern himself with me at this point. I know I have been concerned but have felt I was the only one. Now to find transportation since I no longer drive or even own a vehicle. Haven't found anyone yet,but I will. Its got to be important, hope he doesn't tell me it's going to require open surgery, niggling in the back,of my mind!

Someone gave me Burts Bee for,my surgery time. Very Good Stuff.

Excellent information and numbers. Thank You So Much for Sharing Them with Us.😝📆😝

That's 1-2'-3 Great NSV! Best Wishes for a Happy December for you, your wife and Son!.!

May it be before this year's End! That Way you will be having a Bright New 2019❤🎁📆😝

Santa 🎅since I am rapidly losing down my Pot Gut may I have an🎁 Instapot,for🎄 Christmas. Yes Santa there may be only 2 in our Family but my Bari- Friends say the 6 quart size is much better. I missed the Black Friday sales so I'm counting on you to make every Thing right. Your Hopeful Friend Frustr8😛

We had another lesbian poster, don't know for sure her pen name, something like Doingitallforher, now I'm wondering what ever happened to her. Praying she did get her surgery. Good luck to you and your wife, and keep us updated on your story.

oh we will , trying to maintain hope no matter what happens.

Good luck,may your SURGERY go smooth and please update us on how you got along.

Welcome feel free to ask questions, there are many guys as well as gals on here. I am an RNY myself but there are also many sleevers who will be happy to help. You are among friends here!

Don't count,on it , I believe our minds are the last things to accept it. Case in point, I have on an eggplant-shades sweatsuit outfit, when I took it out of the closet I didn't think it would be as loose on me as it is. Dont think I will change it though, just rock any victory even,if it is non size instead of Non Scale victory.

A big thumb up👍and a way to go,Baby! that is an NSV you should cherish!

Don't count on it, I am losing weight like a seasick/anorexic sailor. I have lost 45 since surgery (9/05/2018) 64+ since July 31st. Happy?, No No No! The Bible even has a verse for how I Feel "What does it profit a man to gain the world and lose his soul?" While my pouch spasms and,my ulcers throb and have not 1 but 5 of the nasty little critters. Is The trade-off worth it? IDK, I really don't. Called my Bariatric clinic today, they are still thinking I will heal past this, made slight wisecrack about my advanced age slowing down healing. Baby I am pretty miserable and they tell me to take a chill,pill until Wednesday when I have another endoscopy.😥💦😪

yeah still ashamed I still feel ugly, decades of fat-shaming to get past. Sickly joked to myself,nobody wants MINE unless they have rats or bugs to scare away. Tomkitten says I'm it half as ugly as I think I am. That's why I am going to spring for future GlamourShots to help with my self- confidence. Sure I will never look 20 or 30, bariatric surgery only " youthfuls" your appearance so far, but can I look an Happier 72? Its rough, today Precious Pouch is spasming on me, been taking things in slowly and lightly, no urping yet, but it puts worse than a scowl on my face!😥😪💦

Pork is notorious for upsetting gall bladders and other digestive areas. My Daddy used to call Pork Broth "Devil Broth" for that reason. Do you by chance still have YOUR gall bladder?

I think you might mean 11/27/18 Theresa, chalk it up to pre-surgery. jitters Honey!

Eavesdropping but I too will keep these 2 ladies works in mind. Kind of housebound due to finances but my phone and Google Play account still money on them÷😛📦😛
