if the doctor had said.... Christina you have to give up coffee for ever.... i would have stayed fat. That was not an issue. My doctor never said no caffeine. I would venture to say that most everyone here drink either coffee or tea all day.
Good luck with your journey... i wish you all the luck

I love you guys..... hugs to you all. God i wish you all lived near me. I need an At-A-Boy box on my desk with all of your voices keeping me encouraged. And every time if feel down... all i have to do is open my box..... Wouldn't that be great.
You all inspire me every day.....
PS... Yes CG its a deal

OMG..... My friend.... i could not have said it better myself. I feel exactly where you are coming from and completely agree with everything you said.
I wrote a post like this a while back, some people were supportive of what i had too say... some not so much. And to them i said.... Too Heck with you all.
But you are right, we come here to talk about our experiences with other and they say.... WOW you look great, tell me how/what you did.... you tell them and they then get so offended and or jealous of your success.
Im not here to compete with anyone... just to read, encourage, chat, discuss, and yes Vent sometimes..... but in all that i believe speaking the truth is the most important. But some people can't handle the truth.
You are amazing and still one of my encouragers..

have you asked your doctor about starting a clothes swap. We did it among our selves... We posted on his wall what we had to give and people came and got them...
Or if you go to support group.... ask to start one there...
I also, shop ebay and Goodwill... when i was losing. Who wants to spend tons of money on clothes that will only fit for a short time.

Well glad you have a great meeting with Dr. McDreamy... lol. You keep on the right track. Goes to show that every doctor is different. I also have not heard of three meals or less... But, if is works.
Great question about the ginormous boobs..... lol If my ginormous boobs did cause problems... i think you will be ok. Mine were a 44H... So i know all about that... and they still are. I went down 8 inches but only lost one cup...
I wish you all the best

Hey Jen..... Love your post and can relate to a lot of it. I also looked in the mirror and saw a pretty average looking woman. Growing up i was always a small kid. after my second son i lost all the weight i gain (a whole whopping 35lbs) So yes i delivered via section at 135lbs... omg... looking back now... i thought i was huge back then. Anyway, so that was section #2 and the final one. I would say that LB was not even in the same ball park. my LB surg was so pain free. Most uncomfortable for me was the gas pain after. I equate my TT as being the same as the Sections. LB was like the hysterectomy and the gallbladder surg.
back to the subject... I too looked in the mirror and still thought i looked good, until i saw a picture and didn't recognize myself. I was horrified.....How, when, what did i do to my self. How and the hell did i go from 100lbs to 223lbs... it seemed like over night. So i had the LB done nov. of 09 and i have not looked back. The first few months were hard.. i won't lie. I was thinking that i would have the surg and whammm bammm .. i would wake up skinny. Surprise... nope didn't work that way. So i got my ass in the gym and started working out... and low and behold... the weight kept coming off...Slow, but it was going away. The first year i lost 60lb and the second 20.... i have been about the same for a while now.... i did put back a few since my hubby lost his job only because he is 6'4" and can eat anything...
Ohhhh FYI: I too carry a lot of weight in my chest... I started at a 44H bra... and 80lbs later.... im only a 36G... So don't count on them all going away. if in the past you have lost in the boobs... then maybe there is hope for you. But every time i lost weight in the past... boobs always was the last too go...
Go in with a positive out look, keep telling your self.... Self, i will do this... I will do this... I will do this..... And you will. All the best too you...

Jules.... please don't let the actions of one pea-brain a*****e determine your self worth. You have made a great decision to have WLS to get your health in order and become who you are destined to be.
Jerks like that are a dime a dozen... Keep your chin held high, embrace every pound you have loss and every future pound you lose.
Take care..

i have a great friend named Beanie.... i love her... Anywho, my surg didn't take BMI into concid .... the pre op diet was to help him in the surg with my liver to become more pliable But i was able to eat soup and pudding too. 750-1000, such a small amount of cals.
Good luck with everything....

you guys are wonderful... i truly appreciate each and ever one....
My meaning is .. and cassy is right (hope i can call u Cassy) I have a cuz named Cassandra... love her.... anyway. I think to me.. its more of wanting people, like me... , to look deep inside and evaluate what they really are doing. and you all are right... i guess if one over eats anything it could be a bad thing.. my experiences with my son's GF's and friends that are "vegetarians" and "healthy" eaters are that they are all very aware of everything they eat. I have never met an over weight one... but that's just me.
some people .... I think.... this is just me talking here.... and lying to them selves about what they truly are doing to their bodies that's .... Really making them fat. dose that make since...?
sometimes i know what i want to say... but my words don't come out like i want them too.... lol
-
omg... i know the feeling.
after my first son... i stayed at 135 and was not fat by any means... but my ex use to call me fat and ugly and that i should be lucky too have him....
fast forward to now..... him... 5'5" and 320lbs..... bahhhhh bahhhhh

i was a slow loser too... but one of my greatest days was when i got rid of all my "granny panties" and was able to buy the ones from VS.... Now i know what the secret is... they make you feel so .... SEXY and pretty.... they are my new obsession. Although i know i will never be able to fit the bras because the biggest they make is a ddd... and im a 36G.... I am still Happy Happy Happy
Keep up the great work....

i got one for you.....
i was at 143#...My husband said... so, how much more weight do you want to lose. I said, i don't know.. i guess about 10-20 # ... why i asked.... he said... because your starting to look like a bag of bones...and your face is starting to wrinkle....
my best friend said... chris you need to stop, your face is sinking in...

JACKIEO85 reacted to this -
i removed what i wrote.... i don't have time for all that. People are going to think what they want. I only meant to help, but it got taken the wrong way....
I'm just going to sit back and know that i what i wrote was the truth and if people can't handle the truth then so be it..
Thanks my friends...
