I love it too- and it does help me feel better when I know I'm not getting enough liquids

I've been taking them since 2 months pre op- not sure I'll ever stop'

I was lucky to get in a couple cups of gatoraid- take it easy on your new little tummy- its the twisting and turning of the digestion of the food you put in that harms the staple line- take it easy girl

You look amazing! Good to have those photos' Ps- I just bought that bikini last week- cant wait to wear it on Maui next month'

This is the best I've ever heard! LOVE it!!!

It's fantastic! I just bought my first two bras from there~ NOW 50lbs down, I KNOW what Victoria's Secret is!

Yes- and all I can say is thank GOD I had them!

Great job!! I know the feeling- its worth cring about!

I had my his and with me- and I SWEAR it got rid of my gas in a matter of a couple of days because every time I felt it - he would burp me- even today if I eat too fast or have a bubble- of I lean forward and he runs or pats my back - it comes up- I have never been more thankful of anything in my life like I was for him there by my side in Mexico- burping me like a crazy baby

Never touched it- never will.

I miss taking big gulps of water when I'm thirsty- seriously- I could never see food again and be super happy - it's a real pain in my A$$ now honestly. I can't believe I let it control my life for 36 years! Never again

I love all of these ideas!!!! Frankly just seeing that scale go down every morning is the biggest reward I could ever ask for!

You loom amazing great job!!!

I'm 7 weeks out and the only time I think about it is when I know I have to get some and eat it. It no longer rules my mind- I am set free from that now and I LOVE IT- I was ready- and I think that's a huge part of the surgery- just being ready to give some things up- for me that included my obsession with food. Everyone's different tho.

The five or so people in my life that mean a lot to me know- they are the only ones that need to know- its personal to me- I want to be ME- not a surgery Everyone's life is different

THAT is NOT a best friend

Yes- I had/have the same thing when I eat too big of bites too quickly- go SLOW and take TINY bites it will help

Watermelon- even if I just sucked/chewed the juice out early on- it worked every time

Once I started to really exersize this problem went away for me- my husband and I were just discussing this this morning as we were doing our miles.

I ration out little one oz cups with lids and set then aside- one per day (I need those calories and fat right now) I snack on the little cup all day- that way I know exactly how much I've eaten- otherwise I could over endulge. I eat a mixture if roasted peanuts, cashews, macadamia nuts, and a few almonds. I've been eating them since about 5-6 weeks out.
