I love having lost a lot a weight. I had to get blood drawn today.  For the fist time in 30+ years, because if very having very deep veins that could never be found, I didn't have to have the stick in the back of my hand. Instead, the tech went right t

My gyno found 2 nodules in my right breast during my yearly exam on Monday of this week.  I had a diagnostic mammogram w/ultrasound on Wednesday.  The doc did not like what she saw (2 masses + some lymph nodea) and scheduled me for a vacuum core needle

I found this article to be very informative and well worth the read.

The strangest thing...as I was driving this morning my leg itched so I reached down to scratch. In the process, my hand rubbed my leg. That's when I discovered a hard flat bump about half way down my leg, then I found an identical bump on my other leg

Before surgery my Center has us weigh our portions.  After surgery we are instructed to measure our portions. In fact, I've been told by one of our nurses that it will be quite some time before I will be able to return to weighing my food.  I miss weig

Target...Field Trip All Natural Turkey Jerky...1oz=12g protein...3 carbs...2g sugar...EXCELLENT but spicy!!

I learned a very hard lesson today. I was on a hard run and found myself hungry. The only place available to grab a bite was McDonalds. I ordered a breakfast burrito and a fork to eat just the inside of the burrito. Not thinking, I ate the sausage, egg

My WLS has me cooking, and cooking, and cooking more.  I find that I now lust for certain items to help me in preparation of all the wonderful recipes and other food...and storage of the spices/additives.  My list is:

1. Spiralizer

Look what I went and did today...

I've been on solid food only since Tuesday of this week.  The first day was just fine, took food in carefully, the 2nd day I ate but by the afternoon I was feeling gassey and a bit queasy. I ate my lunch late but without any issue.  Fluid intake was fi

I am looking to buy a spiralizer. There are so many on the market, does anyone have a recommendation?

I am new to this forum.  I had my RNY 3 weeks ago today; I'm just today feeling peppy enough to finally start moving.  There are so many different brands and models of activity trackers currently on the market, where does a person even begin to find on

Merry Christmas Losers!  May 2016 bring everyone big weight losses, or maintenance of previous losses, good health, and loads of happiness!

Hello there my sparikly friends. It's been such a long time! Okay, so even if the scale hasn't moved in 2 weeks, this is living proof that things are happening to my body. It's been years since my rings fit!

I've been expecting a 3 week stall, even 2 week, but I wasn't expecting having a stall at only 1 wk post-op!  It messes with my head, even though I know it's just my body's way of catching up with mynlosing 40lbs during the 3 mos before surgery and 10

I will be graduating to soft/pureed food on Tuesday.  Is this basically baby food (infant stage) consistency?  I'm at a loss as to what and how to prepare for this stage.

This is probably a stupid question, most of mine are.  Who sets our goals, the doctor, the patient, or both combined?  My surgeon has not mentioned goals to me; however, she did say something to my husband after my surgery.  She told him that she would

Dear Santa

Please give me and the OHers continued good weight losses and good health.  Also, if you have time and room in your bag, I would love it if you could bring us all smaller clothes, including underwear.  Nothing fancy, just nice everyd
