AJP got a reaction from Laura7 in Laura's RNY Journey; Age 31 Starting Weight 365
What chart are you going by? I have my 6 month follow up next month. Finally made it to onederland this week but barely lol. Dr goal is 180 for me. Trying to see if I can get there by then. I wasn't very good in Dec. Only lost 5lbs but that was due to my poor choices. We'll get there!

AJP reacted to Itsme! in When can you "try" steak?
Steak stays in your stomach for days? Nothing stays in your stomach for days.
I started eating anything and everything at 4 weeks, after clearance from my doctor. I've no issues with anything. Just take small bites and chew well.

AJP got a reaction from Sweettoothless in do you tell your weight lost
I used to say how much. Now I just say quite a bit. It sounds weird saying 70+ lbs cause then you know they're going to try to do the math lol

AJP reacted to mousecat88 in Check to make sure your protein is covered by insurance
I have BCBS Highmark and they will not cover it because it's considered a food product.

AJP reacted to charmed4 in Dating.... Starting preop journey
Lol Thank you for sharing. I never had a chest unless pregnant or now heavy. Congrats on rocking it tho. I know it doesn't matter what others think. I'm doing this for me and my health. Just would be nice to have a supportive partner

AJP reacted to Frustr8 in do you tell your weight lost
If I tell them the truth, I can see it in their ๐ eyes, OMG , JUST HOW BIG WERE YOU? When you start in the mid 300s, even though you are in the mid-200s now, you still are larger than the "average" person your age. Most 73 years are thin or dead, I'm just an exception, aren't I? Last person I smiled as sweetly as possible Thank you for noticing and asking ( although it is none of your business) now,if you will excuse me, I would like to finish my shopping. You may have started this conversation but I am terminating it. Bye Bye!๐

AJP reacted to sgc in Dating
I've given up. Now I get the occasional woman who will like my profile. I then message her and she ignores me. I don't have the social skills necessary to meet people in real life. I've tried Match, eHarmony and OKCupid. Combined I've sent hundreds of messages. Sticking with eHarmony since they have canned questions to send. Don't feel like putting the effort in. On OKCupid, I was messaged by a professional dominatrix. I was tempted.

AJP got a reaction from Frustr8 in Dating.... Starting preop journey
Same here. I didn't get heavy until pcos kicked in. That was my 20's. Fast forward 20 yrs and a divorce I just didn't bother dating as I disgrace feel comfortable in my own skin. I'm now down to my lowest weight since 1998. I'm at 198-199 naked lol. Some might consider still big but I'm rocking it. Only thing I miss is my boobs. My ass was pretty sad when I was big now it's nonexistent
