It's kind of funny, I was a little worried that my Mom left me and my husband stayed lol. But he was sooo amazing it made me cry. He didn't sleep the whole time in the hospital and walked with me every time it was needed. And when we got home things got bad and he still stuck with me :-) Everyone has different healing once…

I know what your talking about. My husband has been super supportive through this whole thing, he even took great care of me in the hospital. But he did actually say something the other day that kind of got to me, He said in a " Joke " manner but I took it serious. He laughed and asked me if I'm going to leave him when I…

RNYGB on 11/11/15..so a little over a week ago. The first 5 days I was in panic mode and had huge regrets of doing the WLS. And today I feel totally different. I am soooo glad I did it and the depression I felt passes very fast. And as for being Vegan, I have been a Vegan for 3 years but up until this January I was an…

Just a suggestion for the extra skin rubbing, I use SURE DEODORANT REGULAR SCENT on all my areas where skin rubs. It works amazing.

I had the Roux-En-Y gastric bypass. My weight loss center was amazing getting me to surgery and even got me in sooner because I had to have my gallbladder out asap. I had to do 3 different classes and was well informed...I thought. They did say that If I had any questions to call them, however the one BIG problem I did…

Feeling so much better about everything :-) thank you all for the comments. And yes I would for sure do the surgery if I had it to do over again :-) I think I'm just one of those people who like to get better fast and move on with life, My husband has helped me realize I need to just slow down and let things heal inside…

I was talking things over with my husband, and I told him that I thought it was unfair that the doctors don't tell you all the horrible things you go through after you have the WLS. They just tell you to follow your doctors instructions to the " T " and you will do great ( That I have done, and its not so great ). They did…

Oh my gosh all day yesterday I cried and kept asking my husband " What did I just do to myself? " I think I finally stopped crying at 1 am. My hubby is amazing, he just kept telling me that it wall all pass and I will feel better soon. My poor kids ( 22,23,24 ) just kept calling to check on me. All I could say is that I…

UPDATE: Yesterday I had the worst experience OF MY LIFE. They were having me take Miralax for a stool softener before and after surgery, well they failed to tell me that for some people it does not work and can actually make things worse. I never want to go through what I did yesterday EVER again in my life. I thought I…

Thank you everyone :-) And RyanVSG I'm excited for you. Cant wait to hear how your doing :-)

Hi, My name is Kenda. I will be having Gastric Bypass in two weeks. I started my supervised diet ( 7 weeks) at 398 lbs and as of today 10/31/15 I am down to 301, so I have lost 97 lbs since March 2015. I have changed everything about how I eat, I am now a Vegan and I LOVE it. Most people ask me why I'm having the Gastric…

I have noticed that I eat 0 cholesterol, I was wondering if that was a good thing. Guess I will be talking to the Doc next week when I go in. I'm glad this was brought up :-)

Thanks you guys for all the help. Im loving " vegan zombie " on youtube lol. I think for now im going to stick to tofu scramble stuff lol but hopefully I will get the hang of it.

ok so if my BMR is 2504 and my TDEE is 3771 that means I need to burn off 3771 cal pr day and take in 3017? that's -20% Im sorry im just trying to figure this out lol.

Awesome thank you. I will check out that web site now :smile:

Hello all you beautiful Vegans :-) I have been a Vegan since November 2011, and it was the best decision I have ever made. I did not start slowly and I was not a vegetarian when I started, I just did it 100% and have not turned back. My reasons for becoming a Vegan started when I thought I was having a heart attack and had…

I'm so upset, I have done so well and I am starting to really love the exercise I do, and now my Dr. tells me I have to have knee surgery. I is so unfair. I am going to need all the support I can get to push me back into the swing of things after my surgery...I only have till JULY 4th to get back into things...I'm going to…

:smile: In my first month I lost 20 lbs. I am mostly strick, I only drink nothing but water..no pop at all. I do give myself one day a week to eat something fun. But I exercise every day.

:laugh: It's to funny that I lay in my bed at night thinking about the darn thing. :mad: My husband just gets a kick out of me fighting with it. But its ok...if fighting with that machine keeps me going then im ganna keep fighting LOL.

So I am on this mission to walk a mile on the Elliptical at the gym. Well the first time I walked 0.50 and today I made it to 0.80 ( Good job me!!). My husband had to laugh at me as we were leaving because I looked at the “ mean machine “ and told it…” Until next time you horrible machine, I WILL defeat you “. And I’m not…

When I first started out I was so confused on the whole points thing, but whats funny is over time you get to where even when your shopping you are adding up points on everything you buy. I have learned that the foods whith high fiber have the lowest points. My hardest thing is, that when its weekend and everything is so…

I have a bad knee so it is hard for me to do much more then walking & light swimming, but I have a weight watchers work out video and it is great, its simple but gets it done.

I have been doing Weight Watchers for over 2 months now and I love it. I am just wondering if anyone else on fitnesspal is doing it. I would love to chat with anyone who is.

Well I have been on Weight Watchers and megga exercising for 2 months now and I have lost a wopping 32 lbs. And I feel GREAT. Who knew I would ever love waling over a mile every day.

I am terrified to weigh more then once a month. My weight loss partners weigh once a week and I see how upset they get when they have not lost more then a pound or gained. In my first month I lost 20 lbs. and those are the numbers I like, so I just stay away from the scale untill the 1st of every month. I have heard that…
