HELLO I AM DAY 6 I WOKE UP FEELING GOOD BUT AFTER MY SHOWER AND FIX MY Breakfast I FEEL SO SICK RIGHT NOW I CANT EVEN DRINK MY BREAKFAST, I HAD TO TAKE A NAUSEA PILL. LAST NIGHT WAS RUFF I MUST SAY. I THINK I STRESSED THE MAIN INSISION AND IT BOTHERED ME ALL NIGHT THE ACHE WENT ALL THE WAY TO MY BACK. YES I WAS SCARED BUT I KNEW I WOULD BE OK. I THINK I AM HAVING A REACTION TO TRADER JOES SPICY BLACK BEAN Soup, KEY WORD SPICY LOL.

I WAS ABLE TO GET MY 60 GRAMS OF PROTIEN IN AND I THINK THAT MADE ME SICK AS WELL I WAS FORCING IT BUT I COULDNT FINISH IT NO MATTER HOW HARD I TRIED LOL.

I HOPE EVERYONE WHO HAS HAD THE SURGERY IS DOING WELL. PLEASE SHARE YOUR PROGRESS SO WE CAN LEARN FROM EACH OTHER.

Jennifer- that is wonderful!!!

Here are my before and 4 month pics -70 pounds.

justine' date=' kaparker, green you are right about those slidders. today instead of eating my whole wheat crackers with my tuna salad i had cheetos, co workers where eating chips, trigger. and for working out i got so disgusted today, i went to ross to try on jeans to see what size i am i thought i would be at least a 16 nottttttttttttt and the 18's didnt fit either, how big was my ass? my size 22/24 jeans are way to big so i dont know whats going on but when i took my clothes off and looked at the big mirror omg just flesh sagging and dimples and sagging and depressing. and illooked at my arms and omg they are just as bad. i must, we must get the excercise in. im so down right now, but my guy who i havent seen in weeks kept telling me i look good thats a plus[/quote']

Awww ngma! Don't stress it girl! I too have my ups and downs but then you look back at what you were and you just HAVE to be thankful on how far you have come. Don't forget you are just coming out of being sick and sometimes you crave those comfort foods. Monday is a new week and a new start. Just get back on track!

Suepeeps- looking fantastic!!!!!

Excellent job! Fabulous!!

Suepeeps.....looking fantastic!!

Before surgery at my highest I was 256. I had surgery on September 17, 2012. Today I weigh 175! I am so glad I chose to have this surgery and had it done by Dr. Kim in Dallas/Ft. Worth. He is the best, IMHO! I go for blood work tomorrow to make sure I'm not lacking in anything. I'm on this iPad and not sure how to post pics yet so will tomorrow. My transformation is pretty drastic as I am short! Feeling the best I have in years! 30 more pounds and I'm happy, happy, happy!

I just make sure I get in my protein and try to get in my water. Some days I am not so good.... I really try to stay away from breads, pastas etc but I do have a little bit once in a while. I try to stop when i am full. I walk my dogs for 60 min 3-4x a week. 10 of those 70 pounds were lost on my pre op diet. and 10 more before that.

Thanks everyone for the comments. I do feel great!

NGMA- I totally understand. I think I reached that point weeks ago unfortunately. I have been at a stall for 3 weeks. I have not been as strict on my diet as most everyone else is. My hair is coming out like crazy because of it. . I hope that stops soon. Please don't lose heart or the fight. You are doing so good. If your hungry eat a hard boiled egg or celery w peanut butter. Get rid of all the crap in the house and stay away from the treats at work. My biggest fear is failing. I will be so embarrassed if I only lose 50 pounds and that's all after having 2/3 of my stomach removed! I'm scared too, I have to admit!
