Piplula

Congrats Lissa!! I am one of those newbies that is following in your footsteps. Thank you for your support and advice..it has been helpful and greatly appreciated!

Well certainly don't be swinging form the rafters, but if your discomfort continues, make sure you didn't tear something and have a hematoma forming which hurts like hell! I have a feeling that you just have a sore spot, and nothing serious though.

I have often wondered what the login names of people mean if you have an unusual one. Mine is a mixture of words. My coworkers and I talk in a British accent sometimes and I always say "Pip pip cheerio!"..hence Pip. I also have a rescue cat we named Talula...hence lula...put them together..and Piplula was born. Please share! I am interested in the meaning of your handle!

Congrats! I'll save a spot on the loser's bench! Feel better soon!

Bawahahahahahahahhaah

Could be from the hormones that are released from our fat stores as we lose. It could be head hunger..I think it is a process that we all go through...not sure the exact reason , but that could be why..any "old" sleevers got advice?

Lmao..I have that problem now! They are so big..I get awful wedgies..time for smaller panties!

I think we all go through this. I craved butter and crackers. I hadn't eaten that since elementary school..weird I know!

Rocking that sleeve!

Have your 11y/o rotf laughing cause your underwear is now saggy & baggy.....you might a gastric sleeve patient. Your hubby gets excited because every time you bend over, your boobs fall out of your bra that is now too big..you might be a gastric sleeve patient.. Are walking down the hall carrying laundry and your pants hit the floor because they are way too big, you might be a gastric sleeve patient. Take a shower in the morning and look down and think there is a small mammal in there with you and then realize its just where your hair is falling out...you might be a gastric sleeve patient.. Please continue to add your own experiences!

I really enjoy them! My favorite are vanilla, strawberry, and chocolate fudge. They also make a rich, dark chocolate and caramel cafe flavors, but those two, I don't prefer, so I stick with my favorites! I have one for breakfast and 3-4 pm snack everyday!

I am having to drop my daughter off at school this week. Normally, my husband does it because I have a 30 mile drive to work and he works in the town we live, therefore if I take her, we leave extra early! My daughter doesn't mind because usually I will get drive-thru Breakfast which is a rare treat for her. Anyway..she loves to eat a sausage patty sans the biscuit and a 1/2 of a hashbrown and a small sweet tea. (hence why it's considered a treat). Granted ..it smelled really, REALLY glorious, and deliciously breakfasty! She finishes her normal amounts, hops out the car, we say our goodbyes, have a good day, etc, & I drive away...my thoughts start to focus on that biscuit and 1/2 a hashbrown. Maybe a bite? My conscience screams loudly "NO NO NO..you haven't come this far to stop ..NO!". And you know what..I listened. So I drive the 30 miles smelling the food the whole way..never touching or thinking about it again until I get out of my car at work to throw the bag and all of its contents away. My sleeve is the tool that allowed me to learn self-control, something I was unable to learn until now. So ..what did I have for breakfast? Something pretty satisfying..see the below picture..and a self indulgent pat on the back!

Oh now I understand! Anyway..good luck to you too!

I bought my Rodney Yee video at WalMart

I see Brandon Williams..I haven't heard of her..maybe she was added to the group..I go next month

Is this Vanderbilt in Nashville? I also saw my physician at Vanderbilt. I was curious which doctor you saw.

My coworkers and I did a tape by Rodney Yee today..felt wonderful after..I may look into this DDP program! Thanks for your responses!

Although I am interested in that DDP Yoga mentioned in another post...anybody do that???

Great..I need to start somewhere and I have buldging disks in my back..I wondered if it would help me to be able to do all the other exercises.
