Saggy Skin?
SOME insurances will cover skin removal, if you go to the doc for a rash 3 times in a year. I guess if the skin folds rub you wrong. Because you can get a yeast infection from the wetness which is health related I guess.

Is It Just Me?
yeah me too. I still struggle with the fluids. I actually broke one of my docs rules about the straw becuase i seem to suck down much more fluids when i have a tumbler in front of me with a lot of ice and a straw.I figure if he had to decide between dehydration and a straw the straw would win every time!

Lacking Energy...
Well, since you get full so fast you could eat higher calorie quality foods, or eat more often, up your carbs a smidge, and please dont forget to eat, maybe set an alarm on your phone on the weekends and keep almonds or protein bars in your purse for when your not at home. What are you getting in protein a day? for that many workouts your probally need 90? maybe? my trainer got on me i was eating my 60 grams a day and she told me that wasnt even covering my workouts. Also you need to be eating after workouts. quality foods. i put turkey in my gym bag to eat on the way home haha.

How Soon Postop Did You Try Protein Bars?
i had my first protein bar (or few bites anyway) at 7 weeks. Gotta watch the bars though and read labels religiously. Most are high in carbs and sugar. My nut said 10. 10. 10 grams of cabs 10 grams of sugar. your better off having cottage cheese or greek yogurt. Lower fat and sugar.
