It started as one chip you know how that goes. But for the first time i saw how i got fat!!! Im sending all chips to work with mike tomorrow.. bad bad stuff..

ok ladies Here is an update:

just got back from meeting Liz..........surgery is scheduled for Monday,NOVEMBER 23!!!!

I have a lifestyle class to go to next wed then on Nov 12 another class...then 13th meet with Baggs. I am so nervous!!!!

Let me tell you, I'm sure you all know Liz is no Joke! she is a tough mama. She was not happy with the amount of lbs Ive lost thus far and she let me know....I agree with her I could do better. She is very knowledgable and didnt sugar coat anything which I really liked because it was the truth. She said she would like me to lose 20 lbs b4 surgery although they will still do surgery it would help. I agree, I definatly need to continue my discipline with food.

DANG it's a few days b4 thanksgiving what TORTURE!! Looks like Clear Liquids for thanksgiving dinner for me. She also mentioned this forumn, she said it was a great tool.

I actually used the baby spoons mostly the over the last 2 weeks. It helped me to eat slow since not so much will fit on those spoons. Even had a kids sippy cup so I wouldn't gulp my Water. I was trying to be careful. But now it's a whole nother party, regular spoons and all.

Nicole- I know I havent personally met you...but I will pray for you and your family. This as you have heard is not healthy for Auds. Please..Please it might be a good idea to seperate for a little while or seek marriage counseling or go to your local church and see if they have marriage counseling. I am NO stranger to what you are going through I hate to say but I have had the cops at my house many many times in the past.

Yea Maria!!!!!! Happy Turkey day! it's overrated anyway (wink wink).

Keep trying to loose, let me tell you I had a month before surgery and at every step of the way you have to be weighed and be below goal so don't let yourself splurge too much LOL

Congratulations!

AnaLynn- Becuase she wanted me to attend a few classes and take some medication to help me menstruate she would like to get that normal first b4 suregery (I havent had a full menstrual for over a year I know TMI) I also requested an end of the month surgery appt that is why it's so far out.

If you lose those 5lbs (which you will) I am sure she can get you in sooner than my appt. You might still be an October bandster.

I think carbs are addicting. Ok i know they are addicting. They got me today. I think im gonna go for my walk tonight even though im sore. Gotta burn some of the millions of cals i ate... eh not good.

Candra you are HILLARIOUS, some of the things you say. I know he said sorry after the cops left but oh well.. its getting harder and harder to leave emotionally. Today i sent off for an apt. I should hear by the end of the week. Im just not gonna talk about leaving. I told mike today we need a break and he agreed. As long as i watch my mouth nothing will happen as we speak im filling out an employment app.

Candra- Do you make cakes for just family or do you do this as a business?

My Brother will be 40 at the end of October and I was hoping I can ask you about a cake, I wanted something done like "over the hill" or "old fart" something funny and different even if you can't make the cake let me know if you have any creative ideas for the cake. The colors will be Teal blue and Purple

I am no pro! I was making the cakes for my friends engagement party simply because I'm the martron of honor and she asked me for help - she can't bake at all. It's my stepdaughter that is the pastry chef. I will ask her if she can think of anything - sure she can cuz she's extremely creative - Maybe to a 3d type cake iin the shape of a hill LOL. We'll work it out!

Here's a picture of the centerpiece cake jessica and I did - I baked the cake and custard (champagne cake - yucky) and she did all the carving and decorating - don't know if you can tell from the pics put it's paisley shaped.

Maria - here are a couple other things she made for me when she was just learning - the box is 100% chocoloate - she made that and the chocolate bow - she made the chocolates inside and the little red kiss man is chocolate! the portrait was hand drawn in chocolate. She's very artistic

      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!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

      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

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
