Mine look worse that that want2lose. I am completely bruised like purple .... plus have the scars. It has only been 8days and the purple is now turning to yuk yellow but it looks bad however if I am thinner then it will be worth it in the long run. I am tired of being fat even though I dress nice I did not like what I saw.. Brendab

Alot of this weight stuff is how you view ones self, I was always told I was pretty but if I just lost a couple pounds..(by so called Friends) I over compenasated for my weight with all the extras makeup, nails, hair, great clothes and designer shoes/purses. and of course my bestest friend JEWERLY..

We are BEAUTIFUL in our husbands/ wives eyes and we are all loved so right there is half the battle. I know very skinny woman who would just die to be in our shoes. and most of all GOD loves us and he created our free will to eat and the doctors have given us a new chance on becoming healthier not just thinner.

God bless,

off to do some "work" outside the home at the law office.. of course today I am sicker than a dog with allergies.......:sick

oh well have a happy day

xoxo Rita Ann

My DH keeps laughing at me that I even care about the scars. Given that most my mid section is totally covered with a million stretch marks, whats a couple little scars thrown in there. I guess I wished they were lower so if I get a TT they would be even lower or gone all together.

I too am a bruised mess and it has been 12 days.It is getting better but the area where the port is now has red bumps but no infection. I think I may have an allergy to the tape. Brendab

The full size me is the day before my surgery. Then I have one a couple days after the surgery with my steri-strips and band-aids. Like the Hello Kitty?

Then, I have a pic a couple of weeks after where I accidentally ripped open a part of my incision and had to put a steri-strip back on. I'm about 2 1/2 months out now.

Thank you for posting your picture. truly inspirational.

I am 200 and 5'4". I am still trying to think if it will be good for me. I want to be 120.

After your surgery, how was your eating? Any bad symptoms?

I used the Vitamin 3 oils on my 3rd degree leg burns and boy it you don't think that'll take scars AWAY, not just lighten them, your wrong. Anybody that has they're doubts, look at my burn pics I posted. Wow, did it ever work.

WHERE CAN YOU GET SOME OF THAT Vitamin 3 OILS?

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
