My sense of smell was over the top for the first two weeks ... and right now, all I want is tangy and bitter.  Anything sweet turns me right off.  From what folks say here, tastes, smells, and even feeling queasy gets easier as the days go by.
Pick your surgery first, then your surgeon. Not the other way around.  
PS:... Potato chips should be a food group.

I'm tired of screwing with that damn health widget.
 I've lost 125 pounds to date!!!!
   And I'm UNDER 190 now!!!

When was your surgery? I have a sal****er pool. I was swimming at 2 weeks post-op. Carefully, of course, but swimming.

Revision from sleeve to RNY is set for January 13, 2014.

Crazyness, I have lost 14pds since my op on Wednesday July 8th. I feel so good today, went back to work and I feel almost 90% back LOL yes 90% cause I am still climbing the hill. Little inconfort in the right down side of my belly but everyone says its normal! It will go away! I am healing pretty good too... I will be able to stake the strips off Wednesday (I cant wait they are so itchy)....

I am so proud of myself! I can't believe I have made myself this great gift of life!!!

Cheers all! xoxoxo

Congrats Derek and Ana!

I lost 3 pounds last week, which brings me to 220. That's a total of 45 pounds since surgery; 10 weeks ago today.
