@@Elode that cold plate looks yummy too. I kinda do the same thing just in portioned out containers. I have to or I won't stop at a slice of cheese or a 1/2 ounce of pork rinds...it's all weighed or portioned out.

Y'all are making me very impatient to get to the place where my sleeve will tolerate raw veg and fruit, as well as to the place where I could eat more than 1/4 of the teeny plate.

@@2goldengirl You'll get there and then you'll have the grand opportunity to worry about getting fat again. Enjoy the small portions now!

@@Elode - how much can you eat of dense food? A cup? I am curious you are ahead of me by a few months surgery-wise and I know I can eat a full cup (sometimes) depending on the food. Can you give me an example?

How are the "girls" looking size wise? I have REALLY thought about your recent "do" and I am thinking about it. Did BCBS Fed cover it?

@@jane13 dense food like chicken I can't do much of maybe 1/2 cup or couple ounces. It's hard on my stomach. Salads and light foods I can do well with. The girls are perfect! I haven't wore a real bra yet shit in the compression bra but I'd say 32 c. No none of my plastic were covered.

<p>@@Elode Ok. Then I am eating about the same as you are, but some days the carb monster takes over and its like PMS munchies all freakin' day.<br />

So no implants at all? Just a reduction/lift?<br />

<br />

My GF did BA about 15 yrs ago (post WLS) and they put in small implants to keep the girls 'perky' longer.<br />

<br />

I am not looking for forever perky, just not:<br /><br />

<br />

UU<br />

<br />

As little as you are now, and from what I can tell in the pictures pre-op BA, a 32C is probably perfect - you LUCKY girl!</p>

Looks fab! Though at only 7 weeks out, it would take me all day to eat one of those salmon boxes.

@@Elode

It's almost like 'broccoli lite'...

It's not as coarse or as strong flavoured as broccoli...

I'll try to post a pic when I get home tonite...

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.
