Hey guyssss!! I wanted to check in and see how everyone is doing! How is everyone??

AHHHAHAHA! Okay that pic made me laugh. Super loud. ? But I’m book marking this for future replies. I’m curious as well.

I’m so sorry that this has happened to you! I can’t even imagine. But congrats on finding the courage to cut that cancerous tumor out of your life!!! It’s 2020! You’ve carried this toxic relationship all your life, now it’s time to let it go! Congrats on all that you have going for yourself! Continue to work hard and may your future be bright with happiness!

I would like to to thank everyone who has responded so far and who may still respond! This is a great community of everyday people who have come together to better themselves. We all carry emotional baggage we have to work through. I would like to put this to bed once and for good. I sent a certified letter to my mother Stating that is is not my family and never really has been except through blood. That I am going on with my life, that she has no rights to me or anything I own, she isn't welcome at my home or on my property, and further more she is not to ever contact me through the USPS, UPS, FedEx, or any other carriers. Is not to try to contact my by phone, VOIP, or any other digital means. Have fun in your life, cause I know I will. Then I printed my name, signed my name and dated the letter. Went out to the post office and sent it certified mail yesterday afternoon.

This is uncalled for. I am sorry, but I am tired of people on the site being judgemental. Let's be honest, if you think you will go the rest of your life without eating a piece of pizza, or something that is unhealthy, you are not being realistic. The point of this surgery is to not punish you. You can eat healthy most of the time, exercise, and enjoy a piece of pizza once in a blue moon. We all have our favorite foods and if we can handle these foods in moderation, as part of a generally healthy diet, than that is ok. I would love to meet someone a year out that has not had anything unhealthy, or one of their favorite foods. At 9 months out, I am almost at goal, maintaining a healthy diet and exercising regularly. And you know what? I have had a ice of pizza! I've had a few pieces of chocolate even! And...my doctor is ok with that because he knows what is realistic and what is not.

Hiiiiii guysssss!!!!!

Had a happy moment today! I weight for the first time since surgery. I’m down 20lbs from my beginning weight.

Beginning weight: 265
day of surgery: 252
current: 245

That was the scale victory. I could've cried. ?? But I was sitting down speaking with someone, and I comfortably crossed my legs!!! BLEW MY MIND. It’s always been uncomfortable, but I’ve done it out of habit and to be “lady like”.

Wow guys. Just wow.

I’m literally sitting here sad. I’m sad because I can’t eat food. It sounds so dumb to me. But I’m literally MOURNING and I feel ungrateful because of it. I’m 3 days post op and I’m complaining. Is this normal??

Thanks guys. I just wanted to make sure I’m not the only one. ?

That is a great loss! That is 20lbs!!! Don't be disappointed at all in yourself. You are doing AMAZING!

I think this is fairly common. My surgeon told me don’t actually weigh until I see him at my post op. ?? I was sleeved on 12/11 and my post op is 12/23. Unfortunately I’m hard headed and I did it anyway. I’m down to 245 my beginning was 265. ? I was mildly disappointed at first but then when I actually thought about it, any loss is a good loss.

@RaeSavage, you are right any loss is a good loss! Yes, just reading the prior post from prior surgeries they said just that as well but inquiring minds like you and I want to know! Lolol Merry Christmas!

YAY YAY YAY!! This is just the start of your victories?

Once I was able to incorporate a shake into my meal plan I didn't buy the pre made stuff like premier or muscle milk. I bought chocolate flavored Matrix protein powder put in skim milk and blended it all together using an inexpensive frother I bought on Amazon. During the warm weather while travelling I stored it in a soft sided cooler with an ice pack
