  7. Had LapBand a year ago. Previous to having it I never had a period because of my weight, even on birth control to help regulate it nothing ever happened. I do not have Pcos either. This past year I have lost 100 pounds and still nothing ( I am still considered severely obese according to bmi). I have noticed though that the past 4months I have had alot of cm. No bleeding just clear slimy liquid. No stds and nope not pregnant. Is this a sign a period is coming? Anyone experienced anything like this?
  8. When I'm at a plateau I do the pouch test or 3days of liquids to curb any smacking and sweets. And it helps.
  9. Hey D I'm curious how did u know ur port flipped? Congrats on ur success without any fills wow

Take time to learn new foods and celebrate nsv (non scale victories) and embrace this journey. I was so hard on myself n the beginning. I'm sure u will do great girl. Just believe n urself and keep ur goal n sight.

  18. I am almost at my year mark. Yaaay I am down 100lbs and have more energy than ever. I wanted to recap this past yr for everyone wondering. My life IS completely different. I take vitamins everyday. For example before surgery I never worked out, now I work out 4-5 times a week and I mean kicking ass in the gym. It has became very therapeutic for me. Never thought I would be sayin that lol. Not every change is huge there are a few small ones like the fact that I don't burp anymore. Weird huh? I can't even force one out I honestly don't remember ever burping post operation. I still look in the mirror and can't believe I have come so far. My mind still sees my body as xtremly heavy its nt until I see pictures that it sinks in that this is what I look like now. Some food I can not eat at all because I physically can not and others I choose to stay away from. I have not had soda in a year. Only water skim milk and Crystal lite. I do not eat bread at all I am not sure if I can or not but I know its not good for u so I just don't even try. No tuna which was my favorite it just will not go down. Ummmm surgery has changed my life for the better and I can do so much more without restriction. Walk up stairs and not be tired, get on roller coasters, ride airplane with out extensions. And these r just small things. Everyday is a new day and you will mess up I have got stuck many times choosing poor foods and I paid for it dearly but overall I feel great and happy and can't wait til I get to onderland. This is just the beginning of my journey. Good luck to everyone.
  19. Thanks krussel good to know I have had tons of cm so mayb its coming soon lol
  20. It's seems to be extremely swollen give it a few days...solid and heavy foods will probably irrate it more.
  21. My gas was upward and kept coming out when I would talk...weird I know
  22. Congratulations good luck your journey is just beginning
  23. Tired sleepy nasuea...I don't know if i could stand to stay awake for an hour.
