  1. I feel better already. I need to learn to calm down. I blow smoke up my own ass lol. Thank u everyone for your advice
  2. I was sleeved on may 1st. I am down 35lbs which is great. I am not longer pre diabetic, perfect cholesterol, everything great However I am not feeling great. I am trying to get everything in and I'm not being so successful. I was in the hospital lastnight for dehydration When I got home I fell asleep in my contacts and woke up not being able to open my eyes. I miss another day of work to now find out I have ulcers in both eyes I can't eat and I cant drink. I had a full blow anxiety attack and then I started to throw up foam. I'm such a mess and feel like I'm not ready for this even though I am beyond ready. I could cry
  3. This is great. My cholesterol was through the roof. So many other issues too. Everything ideal for me. . Good luck to everyone too
  4. Just got a call from the doc and everything is perfect!!! A lil over a month ago I was 35 pounds heavier, pre diabetic etc... Now I'm not!! Yay 
  5. I am able to drink almost normally. I am feeling better but I still have a good portion of those side effects. I am going to keep on drinking. I took a b 12 too. I have to work tonight and can't afford to go to the hospital. 
  6. Can I drink enough to feel better or just go to the hospital???
  7. I am def not getting enough water in. A few times I fall into the wall. I gotta get better w vitamins and water. I gotta get better organized with this
  8. I see him tomorrow. But he is not always helpful... Not the best bedside manor.
  9. Every single time I stand I get dizzy. Why is this???
  10. Go to blanes low carb kitchen .com. He has the most amazing low carb high protein recipes I've made his deserts too. Yum!!!
  11. I'm 4 weeks out and def have dumping. I actually hoped for it. I didn't recognize it right away. It happened a couple of times but I learnt my lesson. My hubby even said stop touching the same hot stove!!! It's a process.
  12. I'm the same way. My Therapist calls me a rebel. Its not good to try that stuff so soon. Even though u feel fine u just had a major surgery. U will be able to eat soon. Don't let your adventurous side dictate what u should and should not be eating
  13. I was sleeved may 1st. I'm down 30. I have been at a stall for a week now. I'm not stressing though I'm super happy!!!
  14. I use the iud. Mirena is the brand. It's for 5 years and can come out after 6 months if u want. The best thing I have ever done!!!
  15. I'm allowed almost anything at this point. Any suggestions other than protein shakes?
  16. I was bloated too!!!! I didn't realize!!! Thank u
  17. I def had not. I had watered down vodka and cranberry. I felt it hit harder quicker but it did hurt a little. I don't think u could do it in one shot anyway. I was sleeve may 1st btw
  18. I tried after 2 weeks and I was fine. But now I'm over it lol
  19. So I am going out for the first time in forever. I was sleeved 5/1. Can I have a watered down drink?? I was never a drinker but u always need to have a drink on the dance floor!! 
  20. I was told that some insurance companies will help pay for plastics if it is medically necessary. I know only a couple of people that had some of the tucks covered bc they developed rashes from the excess skin. I don't think 100% percent is covered though. I started taking just 5 dollars a week and put it aside. I figure I do that for a couple of years I can afford it w no probs.
  21. I love fat free milk and I normally drink it with dinner. Is that a nono? I use to have the band and i def was not allowed to eat and drink
