  1. I went shopping for clothes today. Good news is I'm down to size 18-20 pants. Bad news is I saw myself in a mirror! My stomach hangs so bad. My weight is down 60 pounds. I NEED HELP! How can I reduce stomach fat? I still have to wear a 2x top. Any suggestions? I'm so depressed that other people are down lots more after 5 months. Maybe I'm slower because of my age? (60).
  2. Has anyone tried Rogaine?
  3. Maybe ill try them. I am going to run out of my Bariatric Advantage this week so ill need to buy something. Thanks. So no gas with these?
  4. How much biotin do you take? Also how much protein? Do you massage your scalp?
  5. Also an old dog here. YOU GO GIRL!! So happy for you.
  6. Anniesmom12 what brand do you use? Marymcg thanks for the lemon tip. Ill get some today!!
  7. Why do you associate celebrating with drinking (and food). We did an incredible thing for US. Now continue and don't put poison in your body. Celebrate with healthy things!! Congrats on a tough job well done!!
  8. There is also the option (usually) of a payment plan.
  9. I get really gassy from my protein shakes. I use Bariatric Advantage. Anyone else have this problem or is it specific to that brand? Any suggestions for resolving or decreasing the problem?
  10. Raining when I got home. Still wet out. Will try later today.
  11. Thanks. I just downloaded the C25k app and will start tomorrow after work. I think I'll do it on the street rather than the treadmill. Appreciate the support. I will let you know how it goes!!
  12. I was told at my 3 month post op I could take tablets.
  13. Hi. I'm 60, 5 months post RNY and I've lost 58 pounds. I did my first 5k in April (walked). I want to run or jog. Badly. But I'm scared to even try. I only go to 2.5 mph on the treadmill. I have really short legs so that is fast for me. I'm short...4'10". Can someone help me figure a way to get over my fear of running? I've seen people fall on treadmills and that scares me. Thanks!
  14. If you find out let us know! Only thing I found was a reset my password but can't get it on my iPhone just computer.
  15. Thank you all and DL I greatly appreciate the detailed explanation. It also helps me understand the chew chew chew instruction! Wow. Wish they had explained all that!
  16. I drink it often. I buy decaf nestea in tall jar with green lid. Usually find it here on bottom shelves. I like to put peach Torani in it when I have it. Very refreshing.
  17. I just ate some chicken and would really like a few sips of water. Can someone remind me why we can't drink for 30 minutes? My pouch hurts!
  18. Wish you were in New Mexico. Exactly what I need. Good luck!
  19. Anyone know how to get the smell out of shaker bottles? I found two under my car seat and since they are so expensive I thought I'd see if anyone knees how to get the stink ou? Thank you!
  20. Hummus isn't empty calories! Has protein and fiber. Enjoy!
  21. I recently sent for a sample pack of Celebrate vitamins. I really like them. Taste great and made for Bariatrics. $3 for the sample pack that you get back on first order. I'm going with them replacing as I run out.

    I have the same problem! Anyone know?
  23. Don't rush the puréed. You may slow healing. Just stick to your plan!
  24. Try milk of magnesia. Works in 1/2 to 3 hours.
  25. When do matches for June go out? I replied YES last week.
