gurgling noises... gas? something else? - I have these weird sensations like there's gas or something in my body-- it gets tight in my stomach, and then makes audible noise and feels like it's bubbling/moving in my body...

when will my swelling go down enough that I can sh - I'm only on day 8 after my abdominoplasty with muscle tightening and lipo. I figure I have a couple more weeks at least. I was just wondering when y'all were able to fit into pr...

5 days post-op (again) - I say, I am somewhat shocked that I (and my parents) could willfully go through another elective surgery, but here we are again. December 6, 2012, I had a tummy tuck + lipo + mu...

Back home from my tummy tuck - I'm finally up for posting after my surgery on Thursday. I spent the first night in a hotel because my mothers place has 21 stairs, and I had to go back to a post-op appointment...

constipation issue - hey guys, I am two days out from my abdoninoplasty with muscle tightening and lipo. My doctor told me that the pain meds were constipating, so I took a laxative yesterday a...

surgery tomorrow - hey everyone- I haven't been on OH for a long time- I had a band surgery back in 2008, and after some major complications I have a weird modified sleeve now. I am in law schoo...

the date is set - december 6th, I'm finally getting this hunk of skin cut off of my body. I'm honestly in shock, I can't believe it's gonna finally happen. I wish I weighed less- coming back fro...

I got a date - I've been lurking here occasionally but haven't had the opportunity to post until now. I had a rather complicated weight loss surgery journey- started with a band, had an erosion, ...

anyone has PS outside of US? - hey everyone, after having major WLS complications and being pretty over doctors and hospitals, I've been thinking of having plastics. I lost 85 lbs and have kept it off for 3 y...

Being honest + practical help losing - hey everyone! it's been ages since I've posted here, and it seems like everyone around are 'new faces'. I was banded October 2008, and had a really bad erosion and had it remove...

I've got the power - I'm sure most of y'all here have tried diets after diets. I know I have. Hell, I still do. Since I had surgery my weight has fluctuated between 176-190. One of the things that I've...

How to wear sexy underwear? - hey team, I know its been a long time since i've posted on here and most of y'all are new in the weight loss world, but I need so ideas if any of you have them. I'm post-op, had a ...

why does everything have to be complicated? - I'd like a little simplicity. I'd like to not have to sort out all my feelings and rationale and pro/cons and whatever. I don't know how I'm supposed to behave toward this guy-...

today - I scrapped the diet, and started doing one things as much as possible- cooking and eating a big filling dinner. I noticed most of my eating was at night and I'd stay hungry and kee...

danger zone - so, I had an amazing weekend in new orleans, but now I'm hovering dangerously close to 190 lbs- 188.6 today. I'm hoping that switching back to normal food will fix that, but time w...

oh, this wagon - So, after my binge night, I adjusted some. I no longer require perfect adherence to the regime. If I am so hungry I spend 75% of my time or more thinking about food, or if the smel...

this can't be my life - today didn't go so well. for the last three days, I've been pushing my body to see how few calories I can manage while still functioning. Also, I decided to play a whimsical game w...

together at last - holidays were crazy. went up to 189.7 and down to 182.9 (apparently, miami is better for my weight than chicago, even though I drank in miami and not in chi-town). I think a lot of...

keep holllllding on - calorie counting has been put on hold for finals, but things are alright. I'm still not fitting into a lot of stuff, but I did lose an inch or so... I think..and 3 lbs total. to...

I look fat - Yeah, my self esteem has gone down the tube. I've been exercising at least 5x/week for an hour or more- hardcore stair stepping, bike riding, etc etc. This week, I've added calorie...

calorie counting- the death (and life) of me - as much as I loathe it (and trust me, I loathe it) I started counting calories again, and it's been quite helpful. I've only been doing it a couple of days and it's changed my eati...

(some) calm and clarity - well, I recovered from the freak out yesterday. I honestly haven't been that upset about anything in a long time. I managed not to do anything ridiculous- just had a good talk with...
