Thank you Kim and all for the comments. Still trying I will never give up!

Hello, I will be one year out as of 01/31 and have fallen off track for the past month or so. I am having a hard time getting back on track. Have not gained any weight back but I have not lost any either. I am really, really angry with myself for falling off, not sure how to get back on...

Do you know what time at BGH?

Thank you for the post, it lets me know my thoughts and feelings are shared by others. Somedays you feel all alone with your emotions...

When I eat and get full my nose stuffs up, does this happen to anyone else?

I had the sleeve and thankfully problem free (knock on wood). You need to choose what is right for you and what your Dr says. I have not thrown up and went back to work after 3 1/2 weeks. I am very pleased with the sleeve, I am going on 5 1/2 months, best thing I could have done for myself...

New York State or City?

Hi Raevenn and Tom, You both have described my biggest fear with this WLS, I have much more to loose so I am not at your point yet. I understand the self image issue, even though I am not as far as you I am down 88 pounds, I see no change in my apperance and find myself getting depressed...

Hi, I had the sleeve and am very happy with it. I had my surgery Jan 31, and am down 88 pounds. You can undo any of the procedures, it is all up to you. Thankfully I have had no side effects from the surgery and I am at about 4 1/2 months.

Hi Regeania, I had my surgery a day before you and I am down 87 pounds since surgery, you are doing amazing. I can hardly wait to reach 100 (from surgery), I am down 105 total as my Dr. required me to lose some weight before surgery. What an awesome accomplishment. Feels great to be going...

Hi Ron, I had the sleeve 01/31/12 and I can tell you what I eat in a day. Similar in volume and calories as Tom. Breakfast= one hard boiled egg, Snack =100 calorie yogurt, Lunch= 2 oz. turkey, a vegetable, Snack= 50 cal. cheese, Dinner= 3-4 oz skinless chicken and a veggie. I drink as much...

Hi Jane, I have actually found that I have lost my cravings for many types of food. I also found that the first bite tastes the best, so when I crave something unhealthy I take one bite to get the taste and then I stop. As Tom said you don't have to stop eating the foods you like you just eat a...

Wow how awesome...you should be so proud of your accomplishment!

Don't get discouraged time is what heals everything, you will feel better and the reward of losing the weight makes it all worth it. Have you seen your surgeon yet? Are you in New York State or City?

Hi, I was wondering if anyone has had skin removal surgery and if so what can you tell me?
