Pathetic if you ask me.

I didn't hear about that, but I used to work at a doctor's office. There was a 500 pound lady that came in because of pain under one of her skin folds. They found part of a sandwich covered in mold!:thumbup: It had apparently gotten stuck in there at some point, and she didn't notice it.:(

HOLY MOL(d)Y! :(

The before and after thread -- somebody got popped for posting pictures of "herself" afterwards and it is, in fact, a model (MySpace link here: MySpace - Erika Garza *La Huerquilla* - 69 - Female - L.A., Nuevo Leon's Finest, WORLD-WIDE, California - myspace.com/huerquilla )

She goes by Sexylips. If you check her albums, her photos are of this Erika woman. Numerous photos. Very bizarre indeed.

Some people are also now finding discrepancies in the weight loss info she has provided, as if she lost 60-something in the first year and then 75 pounds just since March or something.

I have spoken via posts and PM with this person before. To be honest I always thought some things just didn't add up with her. I found her a little odd to say the least and just discontinued conversation with her.

That being said, she was always a very nice person and she really was sincere when one needed motivating. Of course though Beth you are right. It's not good to pose other pictures and claim it is yourself, and I'm almost feeling embarrassed for her.

And I seen someone say good job Beth on the scale victory - so I'll say the same. :( Kickin butt!!

well that's very unfortunate......i will say there is a BIG reason i took my personal info/pic down off this site last wk & that's because this place has quite a few sickos.

while i appreciate those who do post their b/a photos - i'd never do it; but because you don't - you get shitty PM's saying your a farce. well if your on FB - you get to see me, i don't have anything to proove here...

i'd like for her to post an explanation - but i doubt she'll provide one....

I totally understand, Lu, and it's a very personal decision. I have not posted photos either, and I don't know if I will (though I have through my blog, which is linked here, so...).

But still, I have had a female stalker online as well and try to keep on the down-low to some degree myself, though I'm not horribly careful.

But I find it very... odd... to post photos of some model as yourself! Hey, if you don't want to post photos of yourself, that's one thing, but to post photos of a model and say it's you?? That's... well, that's just plain weird.

I've never spoken with her and had stumbled across her pics a couple weeks ago (whenever she posted them) and commented about how great she looked! Had "Speck" not posted what she did, this girl would have perpetuated this lie.

And if her weight loss stats are in question too (based on some info from others), then it makes me wonder... what gives? What's her intent?

Very strange.

I know! It was awful! One of the nurses did get sick. KC, I am sure you know what they had to do to all of that infected part. I couldn't stomach it.

I had never spoken with her, but I did notice the picture a few days ago looking at the before and after pics. I thought wow! I hope I can look like that. Knowing what I know now, I guess I can.:(

Heartfire went from saying "rat's ass" to "goodness gracious" and I about blew Water out my nose. Don't know why... :eek:

~ LOL! Sorry! I didn't even catch that. I started to say good god but hate using the Lord's name as an expletive so changed it to goodness gracious. Rat's ass is my favorite expletive right now but with a mina bird toddler in the house, don't dare say that one out loud! Another fav is "bloody hell" but alas as with the above, doesn't dare pass my lips for little ears to hear and repeat! DH would know immediately where it had to have come from! And with my luck, she'd say it in church, standing next to Pastor with his mic on! Yep, would never live that one down!

~ Ohhhhh! See! I knew just the place to go to get some good answers to my questions! LBT is wonderful!!! Thanks, KC!

PJTP: I love power tools, yeah, I know, I left myself open for that one!! I fired up the weed eater and had at the place. The yards look so nice and pretty! Had 2 ton of hay delivered, cleaned water tanks, had mini-training sessions with my dog, played mommy taxi, watched a move with my DD and went to dog agility class! Super busy day!!

~ Sounds busy but nice.

Oh boy... I just found a Facebook page for the Applecross Senior High School's 30th Anniversary Reunion of the Class of '79. OMG... Thirty... count them...

Ye gods and little fishes, what the HELL am I going to wear??? :eek:

~ Haven't made any of my reunions yet. The next one will be the 25th in 2 years. I will probably go to that one. Tho not real excited about it. Just not into those things.

~ Have fun shopping for an outfit!

PJTP and TOTAL scale victory: I have bobbled up and down for THREE MONTHS now, never getting below 228.5. :thumbup: This morning -- 227.5! :w00t:

~ SO HAPPY FOR YOU!!!!! :thumbup:

Off to walk now...BBL! :wub:

~ Hope you had a good walk!

* fanny, i missed my 20th reunion because i was a hot mess - overweight. i had been to my 10th - but by the time 20 came around i had packed on the lbs and just couldn't do it. i was banded 2 months later.

have a BLAST!!!!!!!!!!!!!! & yes i'm not into bling - at all:tongue:!

* i'm not a girly girl - jeans/tee/flip flops most days/ no makeup & i think DH would fall over if i carried a regular purse. i like the small antique/unique ones when going out but a shoulder thingy is not me.

i eloped because the thought of a wedding dress made me break out in hives - i wore black & it's been good luck ever since....:(

* DH left for london an hr ago & i have peace & quiet for a few days.....we're a bit too glued to the hip, and i'm glad his travel is picking back up.....i like my ME time:)

~ Yep, me too. Started gaining weight after HS. Yuck!

~ Me either. The more casual the better. My wedding dress was a white formal from JC Penney b/c I couldn't see spending all that money on a dumb dress I was only going to wear once!

~ Got some much needed ME time today. Was gone for 4 hours! :( And enjoyed every minute of it!

I am feeling tired today, will probably hang with the puppies, maybe go for a run tonight. If I wish hard enough, maybe somebody will come do the laundry and make dinner!

~ I'm flippin' exhausted! I haven't had a solid night of sleep in over a week.

~ When you find someone to cook and clean for you, send 'em over to my place when you're done!

I have to admit that gripes because they don't know if I am paying for text messages on my phone!?!?! Why assume?

~ It's not part of our plan either. The too few I get tho aren't a big deal. If it happened more often or I was going to start using that option, then I'd just upgrade my plan.

~ Not sure I'm real interested in my next reunion either.

I didn't hear about that, but I used to work at a doctor's office. There was a 500 pound lady that came in because of pain under one of her skin folds. They found part of a sandwich covered in mold!:ohmy: It had apparently gotten stuck in there at some point, and she didn't notice it.:eek:

~ Okay, that's just SAD. That also means that she doesn't clean. Help or no help, clean your nasty self! I don't care how big you are, wash anyway!!! Even at my mom's heaviest (she's a bypasser) she was meticulous about cleaning EVERYTHING, daily and making sure to dry thoroughly to make sure she didn't have any skin issues.

PJTP: Had a nice 4 hours by myself today. Left the house and ran a couple of errands. Then went to the nursery and bought some more herbs for a soon to be empty pot in the garden. Wandered up to the lake and went thru a couple of shops. bought a jar candle called Cinnamon Sticks! Yummm! Then wandered down to the bakery and sat with my water and a good book. When lunch came, took my time eating while reading and enjoying the breeze. So nice!!

Now if I can just get a solid night of sleep, I'll be golden! I'm about to spike DD's water to get her to sleep thru the frickin' night! Haven't had a decent night in well over a week!

I told DH the other day that I just wanted to go rent a hotel room for the night so I can sleep! LOL!

Okay, out of water. Need to go refill. BBL.

I think we all understand why you did that. I think it is unfortunate that it happened at all. I haven't posted pictures either so I guess I am a fraud too.:(

      Hey everyone!
      I’m new here! Looking for some friends! 🥰

      Four days post surgery. I am sipping as fast as I can and getting NO WHERE near the goal of 60 - 80 grams of protein or the 64 oz of liquids. I just feel FULL. I don't know if it can still be the gas build up (I would think by now that would be gone) but it is a struggle to drink. And so far I have not had the nausea or spasms and don't want to wander into that territory by pushing too hard with liquids. I about passed out today as it was my most "strenuous" day. Went from second story to basement for shower and I was sure I was going to pass out. Looking back on my last few days I have had a total of less than 1000 calories. Am I just not getting enough nourishment in me? Once again a friday where I can't get ahold of the doc until Monday rolls back around so I am hoping maybe someone here has some experience on how to keep energy going. I do have fibromyalgia too and that may be where some added fatigue comes into play. How did you all fair with the goals the week after surgery?

      2 days until I fly out to San Diego to have my Bypass Surg. in Tiajuana Mexico. Not gonna lie, the nerves are starting to surface. I don't fear the surgery itself, or the fact that I'm traveling alone, but its the aftermath that I'm stressing about the most, after this 8 week wait. I'm excited to finally be here, but I am really dreading the post surgical chapter. I know its going to be tough, real tough and I think I'm just in my head to much now that the day i here. Wish me luck, Hopefully I'm one of the lucky ones, and everything goes smoothly. Cant wait to give an exciting update,. If there is anyone else have a June bypass or even a recent one, Id love to have someone to compare war stories with. Also, anyone near San Antonio Tx? See ya soon with the future me. 💜

        Good Luck this procedure is well worth it I am down to 249.6 lb please continue with the process..

      2. Selina333

        I'm in Houston so kind of near you and had the sleeve in Dec. Down 61 lbs. Feeling better. Was definitely worth it. I hope the everything is going well for you. Update us when you can!

      3. Doughgurl

        I am back home after my bypass surgery in Tiajuana. I'm post op day 4. Everything went great! I guess I'm one of the lucky ones who have not encountered much pain at all, no nausea thus far and I'm having no problem keeping down broths and water. Thank you for your well wishes. I cant wait to keep up this journey and have a chance at better health and simply better quality of life. I know there will be bumps in the road ahead, and everything won't be peaches and cream, but at least I have a great start so far. 😍

    • LeighaTR

      I am new here today... and only two weeks out from my sleeve surgery on the 23rd. I am amazed I have kept my calories down to 467 today so far... that leaves me almost 750 left for dinner and maybe a snack. This is going to be tough for two weeks... but I have to believe I can do it!

      Hey everyone. I'm new here so I thought I should introduce myself. I am 53y/o and am scheduled for Gastric Bypass on June 25th, 2025. I'm located in San Antonio, Texas. I will be having my surgery in Tiajuana Mexico. I've wanted this for years, but I always had insurance where bariatric procedures were excluded. Finally I am able to afford to pay out of pocket.  I can't wait to get started, and I hope I'm prepared for the initial period of "hell". I know what I have signed up for, but I'm sure the good to come will out way the temporary period of discomfort and feelings of regret. I'd love to find people to talk to who have been through the same procedure or experience before. So I look forward to meeting you all. Hope you have a great week!

        I'm so happy for you! You are about to change your life. I was so glad to get the sleeve done in Dec. I didn't have feelings of regret overall. And I'm down almost 60 lbs. I do feel a little sad at restaurants. I can barely eat half a kid's meal. I get adults meals often because kid ones don't have the same offerings at times. Then I feel obligated to eat on that until it's gone and that can be days. So the restaurant thing isn't great for me. All the rest is fine by me! I love feeling full with very little. I do wish I could drink when eating. And will sip at the end. Just a strong habit to stop. But I'm working on it! You will do fine! Just keep focused on your desire to be different. Not better or worse. But different. I am happy both ways but my low back doesn't like me that heavy. So I listened (also my feet!). LOL! Update us on your journey! I'm not far from you. I'm in Houston. Good luck and I hope it all goes smoothly! Would love to see pics of the town you go to for this. I've never been there. Neat you will be traveling for this! Enjoy the journey. Take it one day at a time. Sometimes a few hours at a time. Follow all recommendations as best you can. 💗

      2. Doughgurl

        Thank you so much for your well wishes. I am hoping that everything goes easy for me as well. We don't eat out much as it is, so it wont be too bad in that department. Thankfully. Also, I hear you regarding your back and feet!! I'd like to add knees to the list. Killing me as we speak! I'm only 5' so the weight has to go. Too short to carry all this weight. Menopause really did a doosey on me. (😶lol) My daughter also lives in Houston. with her Husband and my 5 grand-littles. I grew up in Beaumont, so I know Houston well, I will be sure to keep in touch and update you on my journey. I may need some advice in the future, or just motivation. Thank You so much for reaching out, I was hoping to connect with someone in the community. I really appreciate it. 💜
