I don’t do any pasta or bread. I keep those off limits. Too heavy. Usually when I make spaghetti we make it on a night after another meal so I just eat the leftovers from the previous night instead. Spaghetti is my youngest sons fav meal too.

July 2018 i was 231 Starting weight. Pre op was 221. July 2019 136. I’m 5’4 1/2

Let me know where you end up and when it gets scheduled!👍🏻😊

That’s one of those things I wouldn’t try to find the lowest price on. You sometimes get cheap work when you get a lower price. Call the place I told you about and see what they are compared to TLC. Maybe it will be better. I can tell you my experience was really good. I wish you the best of luck

Oh hi!! I’m over in Friendswood area. Not far at all from you. He does surgery out of Clear Lake Regional Hospital now known as HCA Houston Healthcare Hospital. I’ve had great results and know two others who have used him and have had great results as well! When are you thinking of starting the whole process?

First post I accidentally put Surgical Specialists I’d Houston and meant Surgical Specialist of Clear Lake.

Dr Khoi Du. He is with Surgical Specialist of Clear Lake. I hit my one year end of July. He did an amazing job and I’m truly grateful to him. Lost 94 pounds and am at my goal. Where do you live?

Congrats!! How are you doing?

There are videos called Sit and Be Fit. Maybe that will help until some of the weight comes off and maybe then your feet won’t hurt as bad then and you can get in some walking outside excersise

I am 5’4 1/2 starting weight was 231. Current weight is 136. I am 1 year out this month. You can do it. Stick to the plan...excersise, drink water and be patient.

I don’t eat the skin on mine. I couldn’t stand the smell or taste for the first 11 mos after surgery. Only recently I tried it again and I can eat it again! I’m so happy bc pre surgery salmon was my fav fish! Glad I can eat it again!!

My surgeon said no carbonated beverages ever. I’m a year out and haven’t had any and I don’t plan to ever.

Wow you look great!! And you still have your boobs. Mine disappeared!

Super cute!! Where did you get it?! I have bat wings and I try to camaflouge them every chance I get too!! You look amazing!!

Good luck and congrats!!

I am one year out this month. No regrets. Normal to feel nervous. Try to focus on all the reasons you have chosen to do this and what your goals are! You got this!! Let us know when you can how everything went!

I am 12 mos post op this Monday! One year! It’s been great! I do have a lot of bruising now. Prob has a lot to do w not getting in all the vitamins that I should. I have been really good w taking vitamins until about a month or two ago. Back on track now w those. But I was bruising w taking vitamins too.

I didn’t know about the issues you were having either. I am glad you are doing so well!! You are a bright light on this forum

Mine didn’t give me NEVER foods either. But you have to make good choices if you want to see the weight go down quicker. In my opinion and experience Bad choices will lead to slow weight loss and stalls. I still give into cravings myself but know that when I do it’s only a few bites and then I need to be extra diligent with my other meals of the day. It’s a marathon not a sprint. I think it takes time for your brain to change bad habits. You can do it. Once you see your body changing I think it’ll def motivate you. I am 11 mos out and do not regret it for a second. Hang in there. We are all here on this to support one another and encourage eachother. When you’re feeling down get online and there are so many of us on here to try and help boost you up! Good luck and you can do this😊💪🏻👍🏻

You look great! Sorry to hear you have to have another surgery but glad that it is going to fix what is going wrong. Good part is you have done this pre op diet before so you know what to expect and do. You got this!!!🙌🏻💪🏻🙌🏻

Almost a year out in a couple weeks! Can’t believe it! No regrets..best thing I ever did for MYSELF!! Congrats on a year since surgery summer sleevers!!🥳

That looks so yummy!!! Did y’all use a syrup over it?

Candy is the one thing I haven’t been able to totally give up. I don’t eat a ton but do have a little each day. I did switch from anything sweet n low to truvia. It’s pretty good. I put it in my coffee, my plain yogurt.
