  11. [ATTACH]17494[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]17493[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]17492[/ATTACH] The first is the sad state of my boobs after. A push up vs real life bra. Don't know if this worked
  12. Hellish... Way worse than the sleeve. I wanted to die for like 3 weeks
  13. I still have restriction but nothing like I did. I used to eat 4 bites and then feel so full. Then around 18 months like 5 oz now I can eat a full burger. Not like a huge restaurant one but a fast food one. Eat pretty healthy. Mostly nuts, cheese, meat veggies but I do have whatever I want in moderation. It's just not my daily diet. It's def harder to maintain the further out I get I'm not hungry but I just can eat so my h more do I have to be more cautious of what I eat. I weigh every day because of this and try to eat dense Protein at each meal so I get full faster. I still do a protein shake each day for bfast. I also now have pretty crappy Iron levels. Just did labs Saturday. I also now have reactive hypoglycemia due to eating small amounts so I have watch my sugars. Y eating very balanced food not high sugar n not going too long without food

  16. Hey there! So I had my surgery in Jan of 2011. I got to goal in under 6 months and have been loving life. Weight loss was fast and easy, my life changed a lot with it. My marriage ended and Ive kind of started over but all in all it was all for the best. Here are some pics! I have not used this site in ages so I'm not sure how this worked. I attempted to attach pics. My high weight was 275, surgery weight 229 low weight 133 (while sick) and normal/current weight 138 - 143…

  18. January 27th at 11am… yeahhhh and after the first submission to insurance! I have no been put on any pre-op diet!?! I will be seeing my dr for my pre- op on the 25th and was told I would get told about any pre-op diet then… Is this okay. Most people I see are not very strict pre-op diets for weeks?!?!? Is this okay?
  19. I looked into surgery through Kaiser in 07 and they made it very clear that if I fell under 40 while doing a prep diet the WOULD NOT cancel my surgery Good Luck
