Topic: Please help!

Hello, I have not had bariatric surgery yet, but possibly this summer. My surgeon wanted me to wait until I was at least 17, which I am now, but would still need to wait until summer because of school. But anyways, I have been eating more healthy but I feel like I'm actually GAINING weight instead of losing weight! Has anyone had this issue? I am over 350 lbs right now, so I am kind of wondering if maybe its possibly my skin becoming looser & is making me feel bigger? Because my clothes feel weird also & its kind of worrying me! If anyones had a similar prob and knows if this is normal or not, please tell me! Thanks!!!

Topic: RE: hi

Have you decided on a surgery? I had the Lap Band, there's also RNY, DS.. those are the most common. Do spend alot of time on these boards, and talk to people who've had each surgery and decide what you want for yourself. Are your parents ok with your surgery decision, etc?

Hey Gang, Well I wrote Alex at Philly Swirl and he called me personally. What a great guy he is. He sounds like such a generous man! If you are unfamiliar with the philly swirls they are a SUGAR FREE popsicle (taste like italian ice sorta) in many flavors, the cotton candy is to die for! They are only about $7 for a case of 40!! He is sending me coupons to pass on to family, friends neighbors. the grocery stores do not have them in SF but ppl other than us will probably like the regular. But Sams club sells them in SF for us!! Please guys get out there and try these Philly swirls. They are great and affordable. Sams club is doing them on a test run trial to see how they sell. So when you go to buy your case, take a second out to ask the manager to keep selling them there. Come on guys lets show these guys how much support us OH members can give them!! www.phillyswirl.com e-mail:[email protected] ~Lauri B

Hey!! Glad to hear you've made the decision to go ahead with the surgery! I had Lap RNY back on Dec. 13th and I'm down 48 pounds already. I'm soooo happy I went through with it and It's so nice to finally be able to shop in my favorite stores again! Helloooo Express! I was 224 the day of surgery and now I'm down to 176. I didn't really have any health problems before surgery so I can't relate to you there but my mom did and she just had the surgery on Jan. 12th and she's doing awesome! Keep in touch and let us know how things are going with your journey!!
