  1. freezing berries and fruit

    I just learned how to freeze berries and bananas so they won't stick together.

  2. New Sleevers

    I contribute it to eating carbs.

    Funny because I normally have a hard time sleeping through the night.
    I don't have sleep apnea either.
  5. My gosh, 4 years after gastric sleeve/ VSG surgery, I have finally found the PERFECT SHAKE!

    I am so blown away.
    First, I have tried every shake I could possibly get my hands on. YUCK! besides tasting like crap, they made me very gassy, bloated and gave me loose stool.
    I was miserable. I stopped taking the shakes and vitamins because of how aweful I felt. ( I know, Bad girl )Then I was told about malabsorbtion. I was on a mission of great tasting shakes that were easy on my system.

    Well I found them, If I could ever give you any advice about anything, ...
