  1. 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…
  2. [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
  3. Hellish... Way worse than the sleeve. I wanted to die for like 3 weeks
  4. 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

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?
  12. Todays "Im sorry to tell you" … "Im Sorry to tell you my hand can hear my heart," Brose says with his hand on his hip and his head bobbin like a black girl. Really I say.. "Yes because my hand as an ear, and it can hear my heart go bump bump bump, bet yours cant Mama"

  13. Watching Yo Gabba Gabba with Brose and he chuckles all evil and says "Uhh thats all fake its just a set." I asked "whats a set" "Well", he says "Ill tell you, if you wanna listen, a set is just when something is fake and boring on a show and they want to trick you so you think its kinda cool." LOL this kid

  14. 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
