- As I mentioned, I celebrated my one year surgiversary July 15th, and on July 18th I had an emergency laparoscopy for a small bowel obstruction caused by 2 internal hernias. The recovery has been pretty smooth until last night when I had the urge to...
- I am back home after having surgery for a small bowel obstruction. I just celebrated my one year surgiversary on the 15th. On Thursday I went into the ED with severe upper abdominal pain. The CT showed the obstruction caused by herniated bowel, so...
- Happy surgiversary to me! It has been a great ride. I know everyone wants to know how much first. I have lost 105# and very pleased with the number but more pleased with all the benefits of the weight loss. I can cross my legs, fit into...
- I have a confession to make to those of you who understand and after this I hope to get my s*&t together and get back on track. I was gone on vacation for 10 days and even though I have always lost weight in the past on vacation, this time I gained...
- Hi all,I am sneaking back on to check out the board, quite honestly I got tired of hearing how great everyone was doing while I felt like I was struggling. I just responded to the post about being a "slow loser." I have felt that for a long time...
- with your new body? I still find myself looking for the biggest chair in the room. Or grabbing an aisle seat. You know what I mean, some of those behaviors we have adapted and adopted because of our weight.I am 6 months post-op and sometimes am...
- Hi all,I spent the weekend at my Mom's house and went to my niece's baby shower. I don't live close to any of my family, thanks to a husband who was in the military. Anyway, a lot of my family have not seen me since my son's wedding in September. ...
- I hit the 75# loss mark. I am 5 1/2 months out and 11 of those pounds was my pre-op liquid diet which I think was the most hard work of all of it. ;o) I am a scale slave and try to only weigh once a week so I struggle with not letting the loss...
- I am feeling a little down this week. I don't have the support network some of you have with your surgical centers. My surgeon's office has changed my appointment time twice now, I am past due for a 3 month check and now can't get in til...
- Well, yesterday I nearly lost my pants, and today I had two more NSVs that made me smile.I went to the gym today and when I checked in the guy behind the counter said, "I think this is you, but you sure don't look anything like your picture...
- I raced out of the house early this morning to take my son to school after he had issues with his car. I threw on a pair of jeans and a shirt. I decided to do some grocery shopping after I dropped him off and nearly lost my pants on the way in. I...
- OK, we have all heard it. Having surgery is cheating or the easy way out, blah blah blah. I was watching the Bethenny show the other day and she had the comedian Lisa Lampenelli on her show. I was surprised to see her since I watched her on "The...
- I think I may have become lactose intolerant, something we all know can happen with our surgery. I am not sure though, I don't have bloating, discomfort, cramping etc but I do have very loose stools after my morning protein drink mixed with skim...
- I have been absent for a bit. We celebrated my oldest son's wedding this past Saturday. It was glorious and I remain so emotional about the whole thing. Happy, weepy, uplifted and blessed. It was a beautiful celebration with family and friends...
- I have just felt compelled to comment since Becca started this exercise thread/s and think it is great to be accountable here and also interesting to read what others do to get in their exercise for the day. I also wanted to tell those of you who...
