Oct. 15, 2012 Sleeve Date



Recommended Posts

I'm back to work today' date=' too. Agree that I'm a little shaky as well, but think I'll be able to make it the whole day. My incisions (or, rather, internal stitches) are talking to me today. They weren't happy with my hilly walks yesterday or having to endure the waistband of my pants today. LOL.[/quote']

I feel like I'm getting over a stomach virus. Kind of shaky and tired. And my large incision is pissed off at being squished between my bra band and the waistband of my pants! :P

And is anyone else's skin super dry?! EW!

That would be so hard! Great will power!! My husband tried to make me turkey gravy since i'm on the blended stage. The "flavorless" Protein Powder ruined the flavor lol i have to hold my nose to drink it.

I can't stand that flavorless stuff! Now I have a giant container and I don't want to use it. It's open, too, so I can't take it back.

Yes, it's very dry where I live anyway, but my skin seems drier than usual. I think I'm not drinking enough Water.< /p>

I have my 1st post-op appt today and I'll find out how much I've lost. As long as its at least 10lbs, I'll be happy. I'm trying to be realistic.

I went back to work yesterday and stayed too long. I was really sore and weak by the time I made the hour+ drive home, and I ended up not sleeping well. Blah.

So today, I'm feeling puny and blah. Hoping its just from yesterday and not something worse. I can't wait until I can stop worrying about complications... :(

Nope!! It's a slippery slope for me, especially with sweets. I can't allow myself to cheat, especially at this point, bc who knows where I'll end up! I have NO willpower with sweets and will have to stay away from most altogether to stay on track.

Don't cheat!! You're strong...and you can do this! You're only cheating yourself. Just think long term and put in your mind, the reasons you went through this drastic surgery.

I bought a cute, size 14 dress that I look at, along with a picture of my children when feeling tempted.

Try to distract yourself...you got this, girls!!!

No cheating here. I didn't go through this to blow everything on something sweet. I have been tempted, but if I imagine what it tastes like, then I feel satisfied.

In my mind, sugar is the enemy and I won't let it win.

Thanks! It sounds like so little, but I'm trying to think of every pound lost as a little victory. That's hard to do when I still have almost 100 to go!!! :/

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?
