Not sure if any of you post op people did this too, but I am finding I don't know how to plate food for me. I am using smaller plates and silverware but I still put too much on my plate. It's classic case of my eyes are bigger than my stomach. I hav

Hi everyone,
I am 7 and a half weeks out since my surgery. I'll say the past 4 days (or so) I have noticed that the skin on my arm, legs and feet are so dry! I usually get dry skin in winter but never now and not like this. It's not itchy. It'

I know it seems like a weird thing, and most of you who read this, won't really understand. But yesterday I had my 1 month check up and at my weigh in, I was 346 pounds. I know it's still a lot but I'm now excited because I can be weighed on any scale

This time tomorrow morning, we will be almost ready to head out to the hospital. I have to admit, I'm a bit freaking out. I already feel sick to my stomach. My Dad, the worry wart called me twice yesterday and I'm sure there will be more today.

Today is my last day, in this life/body, as I know it. Tomorrow I begin optifast and 3 weeks later, surgery. I'm ok, I said goodbye to my favorites and am finishing off tonight with my dad's homemade chicken chunks (actually a very healthy meal, reciep

I was just curiuos, if any of you packed a bag for the hospital. Since we are there for 24 hours or so, do we need to pack a bag? If you did pack a bag, what kind of stuff did you bring and what didn't you bring that you wish you had? My surgery is 1 m

I have come to terms that I am going to have to give up my Advil. I have been told that there is such a thing as liquid Tylenol? I've looked for it everywhere and haven't found it. Does anyone know where I can find it? Or do you just chew Tylenol pill

I had to brave the ice storm, but it was worth it.
I was only supposed to see the RN today but maybe she felt bad cause I was out in the ice storm. I was 90 minutes early (was there even before they were really open) and she took me then and s
