You just ate one bag? Heck i would stock up at Halloween with those big tubs from Sams! That and M and M's put me in the cardiac ward for surgery then in the fat guy surgery ward!

No Freakin way the bread will kill ya .... to early

Welcome to the issues of WLS - Tons of posts here on this same subject - I agree as above -

So according to fluffy chocolate and peanut butter are not true bad choices? Glad to here that so now i can eat 400 receese cups and still be on my WLS program. Now back to the facts - I actually use peanut butter powder in my protein shakes to get the taste, also use the chocolate premier protien with peanut butter. I agree I HATE THE F#$CKIN HOLIDAYS TO MUCH JUNK AROUND

There is always joining the Aj cult in florida - See above

I think we are all a bunch of WLS AA candidates, I fail the AA Test every time I take it! So due to that failing grades i go drink to get thru it.

Ok I have been sleeved and cant tell you much about the lapband but you need the following 1. a meal plan - Read here there are a ton of diet plans 2. Follow the sleeve protein and vitamin plans

Same as you - it is hard but i stay clear of it all, So what beach you walking - Im in Naples Florida

I agree Not all of us men are insecure, never understood the controlling thing, guys i am just to layed back to control, but sure have seen guys that should have there others on freakin leashes to keep them happy. Just work it out - or move on, You can always join my Charlie Manson Cult in florida here, However we do not kill people, we can be hippies but we have to shower, No drug use, but happy, sex, and music are ok! To join just go to my new website. www.WLS-Females only-cult.com and sign up for free

I agree Screw Food I miss the Vodka big time

I was not released to do cross fit for 5 months - Even today if i push it i can feel the tightness in my little belly, I would take your time and start out doing cardio - I was able to do that 4 weeks post op and just recently have moved on to cross fit = Nothing to do with your post BUT I HATE CROSS FIT! but need to do it to tighten up! That was my vent for the day and i just got done with cross fit so I am crabby

Not going to repeat above but Something is not balanced - Either you are holding water or you are taking in to many calories? Move a little more and change up your diet to break this little stall - I think you will find all of a sudden pounds are going to start falling off

Head games are typical - Just read this forum and you will see tons of people have it - enjoy the journey and focus on being happy and healthy, You worked and will work to hard to let a little head Fu#$ing mess this up for your! Do what you want to do, be happy

Puree them for now but it took me about 3 plus months - But run them thru a nutra bullet make some veggie smoothies - Will handle your fix

Wow Great post above love it

Slow down little baby sips = Also get some Ginger sticks that will help ya out

Welcome to the journey = Enjoy the ride

Ok Dont panic you are not out to get stronger just tighte or are you looking for muscle gainr - I am 52 and just started cross fit and got real educated quickly. My trainer said you will not get much stronger but will tighten up. You may have to switch your routine to develop the strength routine. My kid is a cross fit competitor and i just asked him, He stated regardless of age you can get stronger - but you need to switch to a Strength program and resistance is not it

Yep some foods work some do not - I heave out a few times a week - I keep trying different foods to see if they are ok - Most of the time yes but a few - Wow comes right back up For example i tried to eat Gyro Meat a few days ago - Came flying back up - Used to eat this all the time pre OP

Very Very common - There are millions of posts on relationship issues, From a Guys point of view we are just stupid and cave man like! We often get in trouble for doing stuff we do not even know we are doing. My view light his ass up and explain you views! He may be jealous and threatened by the surgery

Nice job enjoy the journey - IT will be worth it

Same here Dunkins blend has some hidden enhancement chemicals in it that some WLS and even Non WLS people can not tolerate - i have a friend that can drink coffee by the gallon but throws up the Dunkin right away

Naked Pie Eating? Sounds like a fun night to me!

Calling Fluffy Fluffy where is your post on Pre Surgery Prep SHe will post it shortly You need three things 1. Protein Drinks, Vitamins and Minerals - See below my set up - Way over kill but thats how i roll 2. You will be on liquids for about 2 weeks so Bone Broth, and other liquids - 4. F#$Ck Food - Do not even bother with that right now, Learn how to make pureed and smoothies Ok I am a chef so i went overboard but the Protein shakes are the key -

The day of surgery you will go into the Pre Op area and get checked and ready to go to the OR. You will meet your doc and the sleep doc and go over some things. A nurse will clean your stomach and you will be in a Rolling bed - Tell the sleep Doc you are nervous and he will give you a med to help you relax, Then into the OR you get rolled and that was the last thing i recall one wiff of the happy gas and its lights out. For me i woke up in the recovery area with this nurse yelling at me to breath breath breath - This is my whole life of women yelling at me first thing when i wake up. Then its off to the room and Rest. As soon as you can and trust me on this Walk and move - The faster you get out of bed and move move move the better you will be, You need to get the air and gas moving out, So walk the halls as much as you can. I stayed on the morphine cuz i love drugs, but the pain was not bad at all and i was out in of there in less then 28 hours and home,
