lol so it appears!

I am privy to what your refer. Generally yawn-worthy!

How's the weight loss going? I have lost and gained the same two pounds about 5 times this month.

The fact I ate 8 chocolate eclair sweets on Tuesday evening and followed it up with 10 chocolate eclair sweets tonight.

I am bad. I feel ashamed. Bloody period!

You also missed my poo infusion...just got home. Easy peasy. Just rolled over on my side, took a little nap and woke up with new poo. Only took about 1/2 hour! Been on Clear Liquids for 2 days, so afterwards drove to the closest fast food place and devoured the innards of an Arby's ham and cheese. Chew schmoo...

Good Lord, lady. If you tell me these things, then I WANT these things.

The weight loss is terribly slow! I had the 6 month check up yesterday and his scale weighed me MORE than mine at home! I was hoping mine was wrong, but to my benefit...ya know?

I live in NY. The weather is turning now, maybe I should be out there walking...or something?!

I think we're brothas from anotha mutha.. 'cause I'm the same. I haven't had my six month check up. I'm scared of it.

I have this feeling he's going to say 'lower your calories to half a glass of fresh air per day'...

He won't like it if he knew I'm just about to eat some pork, because I'm starving - at 1am. I didn't eat enough Protein today which is why I ate the sweets. That and my unwarranted time of the month. I'm supposed to not have 'times of the month', but tablets or not, they still turn up! ARRRGH!

I need to try harder. I really must, or this thing is gonna be a bust :(

I wonder if there's a difference - green vs yellow boogers? How about just white or clear snot???

Seriously, someone needs to be studying this.

Hate to tell you this, but it has been. I work in the pharmaceutical industry and manage clinical trial databases. I've collected data on sputum which includes a description...color, clarity, etc. Yes....ma'am...it's been done already. :rolleyes:

I'm going to tell you something, do not dispute this, you are scared.

You're smart, articulate, and well liked, and you're terrified like the all of us.

The dr. Was pleased at my 6 month and yours will be, too. Expectations vs. reality. Our heads tell us it should be more loss, but reality is we are right on track. Do not doubt it!

My weight went up and down and sideways with no forward progress for OVER A MONTH. Talk about scared!

But, it started to budge a little. When I asked the dr. If it's almost over, he laughed...and assured me that it is not!,

Hold my hand, we will move forward. And if we fail, just remember this.....

"You can ALWAYS get skinny, but ya can't get pretty..."

Lucky us.

lol Oh, of course I'm scared! (in a kid caught with her hand in the cookie-jar kinda way). I don't want to have to face the consequences of my shoveling down a truck load of toffee encased chocolate and the likelihood that he'll tell me to lower my calories! Huzzah!

Terrified? No. As with most things, it's all relative. Loneliness is the only thing on the planet that terrifies me. Truly.

I can man-up and take on my responsibilities better than most. If i have to swallow shed loads of Protein shakes to get there, I will. <URGHHH!>

I know we're alright. I mean, how can we not be?

We're bloody fabulous! ;) x

I'm terrified. I'm terrified that if this doesn't work, I will hurt someone and that someone will likely be my husband, so then I will be alone!

See what I did there?

I quit smoking in order to have this surgery. I think I spend more time missing cigs than I do missing food. I feel like a gave up EVERYTHING.

I need a huge reward for being so amazing. I'm going to get that reward come hell or high water!

Ps: I no longer have that time of the month! Maybe that's my reward!

Ouch. That hurt. I was not a casual smoker either! I'm talking 35 years, hard core smoking! I miss it.

I kind of always suspected, though, that I would eat sweets JUST so I could follow it up with a cig! Logically, because I don't smoke now, I don't seek sweets!

Weird

      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?
