Okay I know we are not suppose to take steriods or certain antibiotics orally, but what about injections? I have been really ill these last few days and planning on seeing the doctor today. Anyone know any guidelines for injections? Seems like it would be so much easier on pouch and system.

My work is doing a Biggest Loser type of weight loss contest and I was told I'm disqualified to participate. Boo! Well I will be the biggest loser in no time. Who needs their contest. Lol.

Wow that was nice. Do they think you have an advantage? I was just told yesterday that I took the easy way out instead of eating right and exercising the way I should. That was said to me after 90 minutes of aerobics. I wanted to smack her!

Smack, kick, $@")&@"@. People like that are idiots. They don't realize there are medical conditions that prevent weight loss no matter how much you try. We are forced to eat better, and start to work out cuz the surgery helps w the Medical conditions, such as diabetes, HBP, sleep apnea, etc. which helps prevent the loss. Loss is loss, it's all the same!!!

They think that because I have lost a lot of weight already that I will continue to lose big numbers and won't be fair to them. You know what, I'm okay with it. I know in the long run that I will be the biggest loser.

congratulations on the weight loss to everyone any number is phenomenal! especially when we take great strides to hit them. It upsets me when people say " you took the easy way out" especially when people who have medical conditions which prevent you from excersising, which affect your joints, your heart, your lymphatic.system, which made you take medication that made you gain weight , people who speak with no knowledge behind their words, than to get this surgery than have complications, or to not have them but need to retrain your body, mind and soul to eat again, deal with nausea, vomiting, Hair loss, loose skin, dizziness, lack of energy, roller coaster of emotions! This is a healthy free of complications person not to mention all of us who have secondary complications who are.still dealing with things and they think we took the easy way out ? Truly upsetting these people need some education in their lives. on a seperate note I have been doing this to help with nausea and came across this article this morning if anyone is interested.

hope you guys have a blessed day !

Got a clean bill of health from my GYN Oncologist. No need for radiation or chemo. Cancer is gone. Although I have what might be a severe UTI or Bladder infection. Hurts to walk, to sit, to pee, oh heck it hurts to do anything. Did a pee test and results will be in Thursday. Dr started me on the antibiotic for it now though. I get so weak with very little exertion. Run temperatures, just woke up freezing w a 101.3 temp. Ugh. Please let the antibiotics due the job!!!

Also he asked me are you sure this was more painful that the RNY. I said "Oh hell yeah." I guess he thought it wouldn't be. I said with RNY I was up and about right away. This one has beaten me up.

      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?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks
