    Sleeved and Steady

    I hope youre feeling better now. But, I'm glad you posted this
  3. While these last two pounds are giving me trouble... I'm almost certain that I lost some inches. Was getting ready for the gym tonight, and put on my favorite "skinny" work out pants.. they were too big. Every time I took a step they'd fall a little bit. Sad to see them pants go, but happy with what it means :)

  4. made up her mind. And, even though the circumstances weren't great for the gym today... she went ANYWAY!!! :) Even managed to get an extra 8565 steps in by walking HOME from the gym<3

  5. Hopefully starting back at the gym this week :) I'm ready for some a good butt kicking!

  6. Exactly what I was going to say. Look around. This site is what sold me on the Sleeve vs other options.

    Recovery House

    In the chat the other night, someone was taking about the house. She said it was nice. If I see her in the chat, I will ask her more questions
  10. I think some people do like a last meal type of thing... but as far out as you are from surgery, I haven't heard of that. Be careful.. I don't know if your surgeon requires you to lose a certain amount before surgery, but if they do and you gain too much you may not lose as much as you want during pre op.

    Thinking of Cancelling

    It's normal to be nervous.
  12. I feel you there! I have 20 pounds to go! I can't wait!
  13. I totally agree. This is all about a lifestyle change... and, eventually later on when you're farther out it will be easier to fall into your old traps.. It's hard but we have to make adjustments to our lifestyles to make them work long term.
  14. They just want to see that you stuck to it. And, they want documentation of it all. Also including your exercise and all that fun stuff. It won't matter if you lost weight or not... I think they just require it to make sure you can stick to something for more than just a few days. With Cigna you just have to make sure you have EVERYTHING they require Good luck.

    Boob question

    I was never quite sure on the EXACT size I was. It wasn't until I lost -50 pounds that I want to JCPenney and had one of their specialist size me. She tried to say I was a 40DDD. While I'm not sure if I completely agree with that one, I will say my boobs have shrunk. But, as of right now I'm very happy with what they look like. I'm in a 42D right now and I noticed a few weeks ago I have a little popping out so I should probably go bigger. But, for comfortability lately I have been throwing a sports bra on top.. Mainly for work so I feel covered.. But, yeah. I would love it if I stayed this size for the most part at the end of my journey, but I won't hold my breath. I was feeling bummed at the -50 pound mark because I felt the size difference in them, but I will say this! As I've lost more.... I've noticed they APPEAR bigger, even if it's just to me. Because for the first time THEYRE bigger than my belly.
  16. is so close to losing 100 pounds. But, these last two pounds just want to stick around. :(

    Drum Roll PLEASE

    That's so awesome.
  18. Oh man, I hated feeling as bad as I did. But, I will tell you that I've only had that ONE incident so I'm thankful for that experience. But, I went out with a friend and had some chicken salad. Then, came home and I was so thirsty that I took a sip of Water. Even though I probably had too much chicken salad... and I wasn't in that 30 minute after window to drink anyway. And, that drink almost destroyed me. No lie when the first little bit went down I could just FEEL that I didn't have anymore room in my stomach and almost immediately felt it coming back up Nothing like vomitting water

    I am gaining weight????

    Could be you need to potty, if youre exercising that could play a part. Just take it easy, pick one day a week for your weigh ins to count and be logged and go on with your business I know it's hard when you're trying to lose and you see a gain, but in this case there's so many reasons for it.

    Has anyone tried Slim Fast Low Carb Shakes

    I found them at Walmart. I don't like that version. I prefer the regular ones.
  21. really misses her husband today and hopes he comes home soon. :( Honestly, if it wasn't for my chat buddies here on VST, I'd be super lonely. Thank you guys :)
