Sooo laughing at Peek !!!!!!!!!! .. hospital ::: laughing::: ;)

It's not bruising, mine is a rash. An allergic reaction to the glue. I searched the boards and about every couple of months someone has an allergic reaction this this. Scary huh !!!

One more pic ... Now y'all know me well enough.. so this should't surprise you. But I wore my bikini at my highest weight ever 300. I believe we are all beautiful people, and if others can't see it, well.. that is their problem. This was taken at my house, but I wore this bikini on Vacation in Biloxi .. and you know what... no one said a damn thing ! I felt great !!!

I was not scared to wear a bikini at 300lbs .   Im self confident then, and I still am !

RM, this is a lot better than what it was. It was bright red. Even my nurse said I might get some blistering and pimple like spots. Thank goodness that never happened. Right now it's just a little bit itchy. I take benedryl every night and put benedryl cream. The doctors will see them Monday.

Not sure I gave my update yesterday, feel like my memory has gone lately. lol Anyway I had my follow up apt as I had surgery on 10/14/2014. Everything is going well. Got my biopsy tumor results and it was benign. Yeahhhh Just have do a follow-up CT every 3 months to keep an eye on it. Sad news is I am on full liquids for another 3 weeks. Could really use some soft mushy foods. I have already planned my meal for Nov 14. lol I have not had any solid food since Oct 4. Every day gets better. I wont cheat even though I have 3 weeks. My mindset it is the right place. I have too many health problems for the sleeve not to work for me. I have no cravings and the smell of food does not bother me. I think what has helped me is that I have never been a big food person. I would have to remind myself to eat when my sugar gets low. But when I did eat of course it wasn't healthy stuff. Love this group and sorry if I posted something like this yesterday.

Hey guys, I was sleeved on the 20th. Been checking the site but haven't been posting much.

Drum roll. . . I am in Onederland! I actually hit 199.1 this morning. I haven't seen that number in a really long time. Today is also the day the poop returned, yeah me.

I am still having itching around my glue sites but they all look good. Still have various bruises and ouch is from needle sticks.

I am still taking my dilaudid and liquid Tylenol for pain and well controlled.

Still on full liquids and seem to tolerate premier Protein best. I tried making some of my previous Protein concoctions but they seemed very frothy and gave me more gas. I go back to see the Nut on 11/4 for diet advancement.

Hope all my fellow BariPals are doing ok, and with that, I think I am all caught up now.

Kya

      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
