Two Month Surgiversary And Very Happy!

"A side of grit" ????     You crack me up!  Sooooo funny 

How about Luigi?  Or Guido?   I'm Italian -- maybe I should have tried whatever the Italian version of Myrtle is???  

Oh, there you go.............how about Paco-Luc????  LOL

THIS is entertainment!  Aren't we lucky to have this medium to share our ideas? 

Have a Happy Thursday!

 Way to go Ree!  I love your post!  I love your positive attitude!  You are an awesome inspiration and are always so encouraging!

Keep up that great work!!!

Thank you itz -- your kind words mean so much.  I just think that if we have the opportunity to encourage or give a boost to another person, we should take it.  We never know what a simple kindness can mean to him or her.

You are doing a great job!  It's so good to see people succeed, so I'll say it to you, too -- keep up the great work!!

Ree....Happy Two-Month Surgeriversary, and BIG Congrats on hanging in there during your Quasi-
Stall! 37 pounds and 28 inches gone for good! Wowee! I wish I was Sleeving with you, but appreciate your great support since my Insurance denied me. :-)

Awww, Kay!!!  Thank you -- your generous spirit means so much to me. I wish we were sleevin' together, too.  But we have found a good plan for your success and you are rockin' it with your 26 pounds lost. 

Your dedication to continue without a sleeve is awe inspiring.  I'm just giddy with delight about your success!

And just as an aside -- I was lusting badly after Robert Redford.........wait, I mean PIZZA today LOL  Your almost UH OH with pizza must have been playing on my mind.  So, I put a couple of ounces of shredded mozzarella in a shallow bowl, topped it with 8 slices of turkey pepperoni and a few tablespoons of marinara sauce some herbs and spices and nuked it for a minute.  IT WORKED!  I not longer lust after pizza............Robert Redford on the other hand...........well, that's for another post LOL  It's not too horrible carbs-wise and had enough protein to be an okay meal on a very occasional basis.  Try it if you get crazy for pizza!

Hugs to you!

These two months have flown by Sleeve Sis! You are doing such an awesome job, and adding so much to this forum! Keep it up!

Thank you Kabooboo!  Happy surgiversary to you!  Having a Sleeve Sis is cool! 

You're doing wonderfully and I'm proud of you for that! 

We can do this -- we can keep making progress on our journey to a new, healthy life! 

Here's to joy and good health!

Congrats!! On top of losing weight, to come so far health wise!!! I love that you named her Myrtle, cracks me up!! I'm sorry you don't get the support you deserve at home, but am glad you find it on here!! Wishing you lots and lots of continued success!!!!!

Kristen, thank you.   This whole process has been a learning experience in so many ways.  I truly believe it's a great science experiment that will give each of us a new healthy life. 

Actually, Myrtle named herself!  She was getting very grumbly and noisy one day and kept making the MMMM sound and then I thought I heard some GRRRR and then little TTTTT sounds. Ergo, Myrtle!  Of course, it may well have been my very fertile imagination -- but you won't tell, right???

Hahahaha  Life is joyous!  I see some progress on your scale -- keep up the good work!!!

I remember your very first post on this forum. I am SO HAPPY that you are having a good experience with your sleeve and that you are having success.

Much love to you!
