Many of you know, when God was handing out boobs.... I must have gotten in that line a few times..... Anyway 2009 band bra size 44H, 2017 band removal 34G, 2019 sleeve 36G/H.....Last bra i bought was a 30GG (cup was a little big at the top, it's now full) Recently with the sleeve i finally started losing some and thought (prob around F/FF)... Yayyyyy. But over the past few weeks, they (the boobs) have been really tinder and nipple are is very sensitive. I blew it off to ovulation time (even though i don't have a uterus i still have ovaries) But last night Tim and i were in the shower and i looked down and asked..... are these getting bigger are is it just my imagination?..... He concurred, they are.....OMG WTF..... The scale has not moved, i'm still at the same weight...... why dear Lord. Anyone else go through this..... Not like i can ask anyone else.... Tim seems to think Menopause has kicked into high gear and i should go see my GYN. Thought, ideas, words of encouragement.... anything...

I have always had large breasts, but with the WLS i lost some and over the past 2 weeks, they came back.

look into BariatricPal MX..... Dr. Jalil Illan seems to have a great reputation.

This one..... i like the best. You can buy off of amazon in smaller amounts..... One oz has 15gr of protein..... no flavor and no grit.... you can mix in anything.... Jello, pudding, soup, beans.... ANYTHING.... https://shop.medtrition.com/ProSource_NoCarb_Neutral_100_Pouches

well all insurance is different. when i had my LB once i qualified i was good.

I was the same way. I was very thin growing up. Then about my late twenties and thirties, I went from about 110 up to 232lbs at my heaviest. I never saw the big girl either. In fact it was the day I was looking at a picture of me heavy and didn't recognize myself. I was 41ish when i had my Lapband SX. It seemed like that's when the brain made a switch and all I ever saw in the mirror was that fat girl looking back at me. Still like that today. I don't see a size 0-2 in the mirror. When I hang my pants i have a hard time comprehending that they really fit me. Last night I was soaking in the tub with my husband and kinda saw what I think others see. I'm seeing a therapist for a few things and this is one of them.

you have the most infectious beautiful smile....

you are soooo lovely. love the outfit. Your friends look lovely too

thank you... these are some of my favorite shoes.... Steve Madden. I wear them every chance i get.... lol

thanks.... we went to some friends house and had appetizers and played poker.... not much... but we got out.

I watched this new series this week..... I don't normally suggest... NO INSIST... on watching.... BUT OMG I watched Voices of Fire.... Watch and tell me what you think....

New Year eve. @ms.sss finally got to wear the green top.

New shirt from Amazon..... Halife..... Size small

tips excepted..... hehe

personally, i think the body stops when it's ready. I know it did when i had the band (2009). I started at 232 and was at a happy 143 for years. Thats where my body stopped. Now with the sleeve (8/28/2019) my body stopped at 120 and I go between 120-123.

i'm so excited to say.... I will be joining the "jump" club this June.... I can't wait....

Three weeks you should still be on soft foods i think. It's not about how much you "can" eat.... it how much you "should" eat. You need to stick to the measured portions. You will have to adjust how and how much you eat.

You should listen to your body.... and if 800 is too much... it's too much. Me, personally, I wouldn't go up that much. I think someone else suggested 100 cal increase. I'm a year + out and I like to stay at 600-800 a day. But i'm also in maintenance. I like being at 120ish. I know that if i wanted to lose more all i have to do is go back to 500cal a day.

I had a lot of the same when i had the band SX..... This is why i didn't tell anyone about the sleeve. When she asks... and she will... change the subject, or pretend you didn't hear her. If she insists... tell her, I'm doing great, thanks for noticing. You could also use her against herself..... Tell her the "story" about someone in your support group that has a "person" that told them what your mom said..... and end it with, Can you believe someone could be that jealous... I had to do that with my X husband.

well, it depends on the chicken part and how it's cooked. If you are going to eat chicken, make it the dark meat and not fried... i would stick to something moister. But i would lean towards some grilled white fish. Remember to use your special saucer to eat on (like the size you put a coffee cup on). Portion out you amount. I use the 1/8 cup. Cut everything and i mean everything into tiny bites. I used my pinky fingernail as a gauge. Never never never put anything to drink on your table or near you. Take a bite, put down the fork/spoon, let go of fork/spoon, place hands under your butt or thighs, chew for at least 30 seconds (count), swallow, count another 20 seconds, if all goes well, take another bite and repeat. The 20 seconds will give you time to make sure it goes down and isn't one bite too much. You will be amazed that 2-4 bites and you will be done. Even though you feel soooooo hungry, you will not be able to eat much. Best of luck and Merry Christmas x

You are doing such an amazing job.... You look wonderful

I love the black... i think it's great. Don't love it as much as the black one with the low cut v neck. After you get the white pants hemmed they will look great..... ***** anyone else notice the Abs on @ms.sss **** I have to agree with yourdaughter. Somethings aren't meant for us "vertically challenged" people.

LOVE!!!!! the boot and the pink top..... Pink is your color

You always look so adorable. I would so love to have even 1% of your creative ability.... the sketch is so pretty.

look fine.... i'd kinda like to see it with out the tank under it.... Just to see.
