Good job. I missed my diet Dr Pepper, Pepsi Max, and Coke Zero (I was loyal to all 3) for a while. A few months ago I accidentally took a sip of what I thought was water but turned out to be 7-up. I...

As I got closer to the date, I remember working really hard to tune everyone out and focus on myself and the things my Dr told me to do to be prepared. I did not talk about it with anyone as I wanted...

Your day will be my one year anniversary of my VGS. I am doing great although I still have about 20 more pounds I want to lose. I do not take any medications, my vitamin levels have all been great...

I saw this today. sorry no one answered. I used Dr Cribbins and absolutely love him. I have my one year appointment with him Friday 9/8. I hope you are doing great where ever you are in your...

I remember having severe headaches post-op for about a week or so before they stopped. Looking back I think it could have been from the lack of calories and liquids combined that caused it. It could...

Congratulations, it's those small victories that keep a person focused.

I guess it depends on your starting weight and if you really struggle now getting up and down out of bed. I had an incline foam pillow and it helped me for the first 5 days or so just lessening the...

Awesome.

Xmas eve I was eating dinner and sat across the table from my brother's in laws that I did not know. I took one bite too many and a sound between a burp and hiccup came out. I was mortified and...

WW has changed so much over the last 30 years. The latest plan Smart Points seems to have helped MANY people lose weight. Members have the choice to choose protein over any other food. They just have...

I saw a recipe on WW tonight that was put washed grapes in a zip lock bag, add a package on sugar free jello, shake bag and freeze. Eat and enjoy. I'm thinking it would work for other fruits that...

Go to Bariatric choice website and look at their concentrates ( raspberry is tasty) and the proteinex. I like the lemon/lime and grape proteinex with 18 grams of proteinex but even the Syntrax...

There's one at the Plano Texas Health Resources Hospital. I had my surgery there but live too far away to make it worth by driving time. Good luck.

Go to the bariatric choice website and look at their protein concentrate drinks. They are in pouches that you just add to water, I like blue raspberry. The Syntrax is good also I have twisted cherry...

You should be fine. If you have a recliner you might think about sleeping in it just because you will be sore from the incisions and it might make it easier to get up and down. Otherwise what Lori...

It's a good feeling isn't it?

I didn't have one. The surgery doesn't take very much time so I'm not sure one would be needed. Some people, me included, had a drain in the stomach to drain the blood. They removed it right before...

I am 11 weeks out and my hair has been coming out since about week 4. It is a lot and I have 1 bald spot but I have had it since HS but it is a little worse. I am taking Biotin and also putting a...

I had my surgery on a Tuesday and back at work the following Monday. I work in a HIgh School but do office work. I was tired at the end of the week but I managed. Maybe reserve some half days if it...

My husband, daughter and brother were the only ones that knew prior to my surgery. I work in a high school so when I returned I told my closest friends in the office. I tell other people as they ask...

So sorry. Hope you heal quickly.

You can have weight gain after surgery because of the fluids used during and after surgery. That will take some time to go away so don't worry about the weight. I agree to reach out to your dr and...

Great results. Happy Thanksgiving.

You just have to sip your drinks, follow your surgeons rules, walk, and take your pain meds. It probably will seem as though people are beating you over the head with this but you can't have any...

Could she have had the affair so you would split up over that rather than risk you not being attracted to her any longer? This way she gets control of the situation. Anyway congrats on the weight...
