Thank you all for your responses!  It's good to have people to share with who have been there.  I haven't had any cravings as of late, though I DID enjoy watching my friend enjoy a mini dessert in front of me that I got for free with my meal.  The waiter asked what I wanted and I smiled and said - she'll be choosing.  I always tell me to explain how it tastes to me.  LOL!

Doesn't it feel good!!!







Congratulations!!!

by chance... have you seen the new show  with jillian michaels?  its on i think tuesdays or monday night..   its called losing it with jillian.... its a awesome show about her helping someone for 1 week  getting them on track with a diet program and their life..    this reminds me on the show 2 weeks ago... it was  family    the dad and daugther had gastric bypass.. and the surgery failed for the father.. he gained alot of weight back and for the daugther she lost alot.. but kept seeing herself heavy in the mirror... so jillian finally told her... you need to let her go...(meaning the fat girl in her head)  that girl is gone... let her be happy...  she said the same things you did in this post...  i cried like a baby watching that show... because it hit home..  big time!!! i felt like i was that girl she was talking too.    you should watch it if you havent..  but beware.. its emotional...  :)    well for me it is... being ive struggled with weight and i know the pain these people go through with trying to lose the weight and the body image they have for themselves...

I am thinking about going to him to get a revision from RNY to DS.  I have heard that he is VERY good.  Does anyone have any experience with him?  Also, I live in Kentucky so that is a 12 hour drive there.  He mentioned about going to his seminar.  Is that a must?  I've been to a few seminars around here already for the DS and the RNY when I had my original surgery.  With mine and my husband's job, I don't see how we can keep going back and forth to VA??
