    Chia seeds. So you hear about them here a lot especially if you have Constipation. So I have hemmed hawed on get them. They aren't attractive and really I wasn't sure I wanted black specks floating in my shake. But...after trying them...I have to say I am enjoying them..to me it's the texture they give to the shake..I like it! And the add benefit of helping with constipation is an added bonus plus Omega 3s never hurt. So for those of you who have chatted with me about the chia seeds, I humbly bow to your superior knowledge of the product and say.."thank you for putting up with the doubting Thomas while she made up her mind"! I am Piplula and I like Chia seeds.

    Why do they have to be in the frig? I've got really sensitive teeth (Sjorgrens Syndrome) and can't handle cold drinks very easily.
    Thanks!

    Piplula got a reaction from preyaa in PCOS !   
    I have heard it can help symptoms of PcoS...but it won't get rid of it. Having my hysterectomy "got rid" of it because the disease organ was removed. I also had a severe case of endometriosis which is different from PCOS which is is why I had the uterus removed. So to get this surgery to reverse PCOS...it may not work for you. There are very thin women who have PCOS. I would rethink this if that was the only reason you are thinking about getting the sleeve.

    They are also good in pudding/yogurt, especially if you like tapioca. I really like them crunchy in my Protein Shakes, but to get the full effect of Constipation relief I think it's best to let the shake sit in the fridge for 20-30 minutes and let them gel. The shake gets real thick, it's more filling, and the seeds work their magic better.

    1) I confess that I do sneak junk food occasionally..not every day or every week..not sure it's sneaking though if you blatantly do it in front of people...and then feel guilty even though I continue to lose.
    2) I confess I want to slap the hell out of people who say should you be eating that? Yes..I can eat a can of tuna..it's healthy fats and good protein..shut up..I have lost 118# pounds ..I think I know what I am doing.
    3) I confess I would like to violently harm uninformed people who look at me and tell me I took the easy way out....REALLY??? Why don't you go get it done and see if its easy? Sigh..since I like to sleep at night..no one will be harmed.
    4) I confess I used to think exercise was the equivalent of torture..but not so much anymore..
    5) I confess that I used to care about sagging skin, but now I feel so good...I really don't give a dookey donk about it...I have some...I'll have the excess removed when it's time a couple of years post op.
