Topic: RE: Do you see yourself as skinny?
Girl when I see myself in the mirror I still see the same morbidly obese girl I was before surgery! I hope one day I mind will adjust to this new body.

Topic: Do you see yourself as skinny?
I don't know if my head just hasn't caught up with my body or what, but being constantly told how skinny I am doesn't make me feel it is any more real. Sure, I'm closer to skinny than I was 125lbs ago, but its weird to hear people call me skinny, or say "Are you a size 8 now?" when you know before they would have never said "Are you a size 24 now?" so its just amazing to me... any feedback would be great, thanks!

Topic: RE: snacks?
NO MORE CELERY PLEASE!!! I have heard from my nut and others that we should stay away from that because of the consistency. And some people had to have surgery again to remove the celery. I am not sure if your doc cleared you for it, but i just wanted to drop that info in case you have not heard it.

Topic: RE: Discouraged...
Yea, I was getting a little worried too. I have been the same weight for almost a month! And some days I do get a hungry feeling. Have you been exercising? I have not but I plan on rejoining my gym this weekend. I think when we are this far out, we really need to start behaving the way we are gonna behave for the rest of our lives. We need to exercise and eat right, excluding foods and portions that we can nerver have again. THis is where our discipline starts!

Hey...My appetite is back as well which is not the end of the world...I am feeling slightly normal and able to consume mostly anything (Have yet to have sweets, cakes, cookies, etc...but I do love a few chips here and there)...For this reason I am really conditioning myself to make the best choices possible...I have learned in the past 8 months that this surgery is not a quick fix and that you definitely have to work with it...I work hard for wach and every pond I lose...You have done a great job thus far and I am sure you will continue.

Topic: RE: 7 Month post op pix
Aww thank you! My goal to get down to is 125-135 range, which puts my bmi in the 21-23 range. My surgeon wants me at 115-125 range, which puts my bmi around 19-21. He said it isn't exact but that the lower I get in this first year, the better for my health as sometimes we can regain between 5-15 pounds in the 2 years following surgery and getting down as much as possible would keep me well in the normal range should that happen to me.

My hubby is ecstatic and yeah he married me heavy so this is all uncharted territory for us as a couple. I see you are doing fantastic too, congrats and I wish you continued success as well.
