I am from Oviedo and Dr Kim did my surgery last October. Love him!

You are doing great! Make sure you get your blood tested. People with thyroid problems get neuropathy in their hands.

I love crawfish! My nutritionist told me to keep fruit that had a high water content like cantaloupe to eat with it if it was too hot. I ate crawfish and then melon. Yummy! Good luck!

I know it's hard. I'm 1 year out and it's so much easier at this point you will get there. In the beginning, I drank a full glass of water before breakfast and then ate my meal. I would wait one...

Another alternative is to go to your Gyno. I had to have 5 years with UHC, and I was well for two yrs and didn't see my primary, but I did go in for Gyno visits. They approved me with...

I had my surgery 1 year ago next month and I have eaten sugary items with no problem. I agree with the others. Time to talk to your doctor.

You are a great inspiration to readers and a great inspiration to everyone. You are doing so great.

Also, my doctor requires we wait 1 hour after eating before drinking. Otherwise, it flushes the food out of your stomach. I honestly can't imagine drinking anything before then as my stomach is still...

I'm no expert either, but I never eat salads. I eat my protein first, as much as possible (usually 3 oz.) and then fill up the rest of the way on carbs. I tend to do beans, grilled veggies or fruit. ...

It is pea protein, but it's also better fiber than Unjury. Unjury has 0, but this has 5 grams. My doctor has me taking a lot of fiber, and it doesn't 'sit well' with me. I'm interested in anything...

I received a Goop email today (broadcast email from Gwenyth Paltrow) about healthy breakfasts. While I was looking through it, there was a Protein supplement that I've never seen called Sustain. The...

You are doing great! Just the weight loss in your face is amazing!

I am like Michelle above, but she's a nurse so I listen to every thing she says. I went from taking blood pressure meds (3 of them) to none now, but my pressure is very low now. Even with my latest...

Where do younfind the calcium chews? I haven't seen that kind. Also, are they Calcium Citrate? My doctor does not want us to take Calcium Carbonate. Supposedly, they aren't absorbed well for us...

I am 4 months out. I have very thick and coarse hair. I noticed my hair coming out 1 month ago, but it's not by the handful. I've taken 5000 mg of biotin since the day after surgery, and I think that...

I did the sugar free Popsicles and another thing was sugar free jello with fat free whipped cream. I wish you luck!

I'm 4 months past surgery. Still have my gallbladder and no problems. Good luck to you!

I have a heel spur in my right foot. I wear cork shoes now, crocs don't do a thing for me. I make sure I wear shoes with a good arch support, and Love my Noat shoes, even though I only have two pair....

I took them for 1 week prior to surgery and 45 days after. I took the pill with water, even in the hospital. Never had a problem and feel great! Good luck to you. It will all be fine.

My colon doctor and surgeon recommended it. I've been using every other day for 3 yrs. works great for me, and it's sold in single packs, too. Everyone is different, but you should try it to see if...

I didn't have staples. My doctor did internal stitches, then glue. I didn't have a drain. I wish you luck!

The one thing most people do when they feel they aren't losing enough, is... They cut back on food, then the body goes into starvation mode and you don't lose weight. Try to plan and make sure you...

Way to go! You are really doing great! Keep it going!

I agree with Deelite. I take Miralax about 3-4 days per week. I still take the fiber, but it works better than anything else I've done. Before I took it, I had so many stalls, and now my weight is...

I could drink 80 oz within 3 days after surgery, so I asked my nurse, The response was not what I expected when I got an answer. The surgery not only reduces your stomach size, but they close up the...
