    Just got the capsules in! I had surgery on the 19th and am curious whether it would be okay to take one pill four times a day without breaking it up. Swallowed a taken apart one today and nearly threw up! lol

    I just wanted to stop by and say THANK YOU for the Sheng Fa idea, I've been taking it about week and my hair loss has almost totally stopped. I was losing handfuls and now its 1 or 2 hairs and as thin as my hair is, I can't afford to lose anymore Again Thank you!

    Got it! I was wondering if I had to do the four twice a day to see the difference. Phew!

    Awesome! Then I won't pay attention to it either. lol Did you take the full four pills twice a day dose?

    Thanks for the hair loss recommendation. I ordered them today! It says not to take them for more than three months. Is there a reason for that? Did you take breaks? If so, how long?

    I have two oozing wounds. Hoping they will hurry up and heal without any complications. I feel so drained. I don't know how you are able to take care of your little ones! I can barely make it through the day. Are you able to drink all of your protein and water? I can only get in 30 to 40 grams of protein per day and only about 20 ounces of water.

    Hi, I extended the liquid diet as long as possible, it felt like the right thing to do, and am so glad, i did not have any issues with pain, burping, nausea, just givng myself space to heal...good idea and well worth it. i a 4 weeks post op and can eat 1 scambled egg and 1 piece of turkey bacon for breakfast no problem, but don't want to introduce anything else until I stabilize one food at a time, is my idea. Willpower is not as hard now, I love that all my knowledge about nutrition is easier to access and use with the sleeve, since willpower is not has hard to muster, your tummy size is partly your willpower and it's great.
  14. I'm getting sleeved on Friday (eek!) and I would like to extend my clear liquid diet as long as possible, possibly adding a protein suppliment. It that going be hard battling with willpower? When you have the sleeve, how much is willpower an issue? Thanks!!

Biography:
I have struggled with my weight since I was 10. I felt fat and miserable through high school and college, I was 5'9'' and 230 at the end of college. After college, I spent a yer teaching in South Korea and basically ate one meal a week for a good portion of a year. After additional dieting back in USA over several years, I reached my ideal weight of 148 in 2005 and maintained for a few years (with an iron will!!) THEN...I had my two daughter in 2009 and 2011. I am back at my highest weight ever and I do not have time to be the zen dieter I was once before, with the stresses of toddlers and such. I am having a surgery with Dr. Almanza, just paid my deposit!!

Last 25 lbs!!!! It's so hard, please send me prayers, good vibes!

by alotofbabyweight on 07-16-2013 at 06:38 PM
I mean, I should be happy and I am. I am very happy. But, I am 5.5 months out and it seems like I've stopped losing weight. It is so frustrating. I know, I just need to diet the old fashioned way, but if I had a foot hold with that, I'd never have needed this surgery. Ughh, so hard!!!!! I still have restriction and It does come in handy a lot; but maybe my metabolism is slow, because even though I don't seem to eat badly, I still don't lose. Well, that's all for now, good wishes to everyone!!

Went Shopping!

by alotofbabyweight on 07-08-2013 at 09:20 AM
Gosh, I am starting to look good! I went shopping at a mall, a rarity due to never being able to get away from my toddlers (I'm sure many mothers can relate!). I looked good in many different outfits and when I didn't, it was the outfit's fault, lol! It was fun; I don't think clothes make the woman and I usually choose to dress...frumpy? I don't like making ppl feel uncomfortable bc Im looking stylish; I suppose I have plenty of experience with that. Still, it was good to know that I had the

Has anyone else tried Sheng Fa?

by alotofbabyweight on 06-15-2013 at 07:43 AM
Hi everyone! I have posted several times about Sheng Fa for stopping hair loss. It is almost unbelievably effective for me, I have gotten maybe 2-3 reports back and the reports were very good. I want to help spread the word more, but I would like to know if anyone else here tried it and how it worked for them since I am working off if personal experience only. For anyone interested, you can buy it on veryasia.com for $6/bottle!

Stall, probably my own fault

by alotofbabyweight on 06-15-2013 at 07:37 AM
So I was sleeved 4.5 months ago. I lost 55 pounds in the first 4 month. Now, this 1/2 month, nothing (maybe 1 pound). I try to be good, but the wrong choices in food keep slipping in. I want to lose 20-30 more pounds.

Hit my 10lb loss goal for the month!!!

by alotofbabyweight on 05-31-2013 at 10:47 AM
Just so happy!! I was stalled most of the month, I was lowering my expectations to 6lb loss this month. The problem was my diet, I was letting carbs and sugars slip in. I went back on my diet recommended by nutritionist and slid down 3lbs in 3 days, resulting in a MIRACLE, hitting my goal right in the day, May 31st (since I had surgery on 2/1, I count by calendar months). I held out little hope I'd actually have a lb loss this morning, but low and behold..... !!!!!!! I want to wish all the
