- I'm almost 9 months out from RNY. I have days where I feel like I'm a bottomless pit...though I know I'm not. Tonight, for my evening snack, I had just about a 1/4 c if yogurt with one T peanut butter mixed in. I used that as a dip for my apple...
- I know it's been forever. I've been a bit of a peg stalker. Get one, read, leave. I've been busy. But I'm glad to see that everyone is still amazing and supportive as ever. I did my 6 month post op check today. It's really an 8 month check because...
- I know it's been a long time since I've posted. I do check in about once a week and see how everyone is doing, though. With work and all, things get hectic around here. So I apologize in advance for the lengthy post. And I swear, one day I'll get...
- I don't know why, but lately I've had a hankering (haha) for anything garlicky. And soup. And salad. The latter I think is because at just three months out, I haven't done much in the way of veggies/salads it il just recently. And then, only a bite...
- It's been a little while. I was never a big poster to begin with...but thought I'd pop in and say hello and share a few updates. With school back in full swing, me teaching multiple subjects, helping with after-school activities, and being in charge...
- I'm so excited that the clothes I struggled to fit are too loose and borderline falling off now. Shirts and pants that I couldn't stuff myself into are baggy on me now. Shoot, I can pull my jeans on and off without even unbuttoning. At the end of...
- Ok, I know I haven't been around lately, but I have popped in to read. It's about that time of year and I have been super busy getting ready to go back to school. Today is pretty much my first day back to work. ihave to go to new teacher orientation...
- This is completely OT...and I'm sure once I get an answer I will feel like an incompetent fool...I just can't seem to create a profile picture. I uploaded a pic onto my profile, but I can't get it to show as my profile pic. What am I doing...
- This morning my workout buddy and I had planned on an 8 AM gym call. Well, needless to say, I woke up a little later than I should have. (I've had a lingering sinus headache for a fe days, so I haven't been sleeping well.) I get up, get dressed,...
- Does anyone here have/use a medical alert ID (bracelet/necklace) for their Bariatric surgery? I was thinking it might be a good idea to have, you know...just in case of emergency. Thoughts? If you have one, what do you have on yours? Things that...
- I know I've been doing horrible lately with not eating enough during the day. I'm still on pured foods only, but I find a few bits of anything really fills me up. I think some of it is that I'm so worries about over-eating now too. But with that and...
- So my hubs and I have been members if a running team for a few years now. I have done 5ks and even a half marathon in the past 3 years. Needless to say, it's tough to run being a heavy girl. Anyway...just about 3.5 weeks since my RNY and I did a 5k...
- So in the past day or so, my lower incisions (2 of the 5 total) have become VERY itchy. At first I just chalked it up to scabbing/etc. But now they are getting a red zone around them. No pain...just itchy...and a little warm to the touch. I put a...
- Had my RNY Wednesday. Got home this afternoon. Very surprised at how smoothly all went. Very little pain. Just still a little sore taking deep breaths. Doing a lot of sleeping, so haven't been getting the liquids like I should. But overall, feeling...
- So my surgery is scheduled for Wednesday...the day after tomorrow! I'm so excited. Now I'm just waiting on baited breath to hear from them (tomorrow sometime) to let me know what time. I'm just hoping I'm scheduled in the morning. Nothing like not...
