  1. I never had them before surgery and now get them at least twice a month. I'm only 33. If anyone knows a reason why....I would love to hear.
  2. Steak and meatballs....at different times, of course.
  3. I also take medication. My doctor told me I could swallow the whole pill immediately following surgery. I did and have had no problems.
  4. Did they use glue? I had an allergic reaction to it. It was miserable. I would wake up itching. I lived on Benadryl for about 2 weeks.
  5. Ok, last challenge was a bust for me. I lose very slowly - probably around .5 - 1 lb a week. I'm only 4 months out. But I desperately want to keep losing, so I'm going to continue pushing myself. SW: 204 CW: 170.4 Goal: 160
  6. I've never done a challenge, but I'm in. I am a very slow loser but going to try to be aggressive by eating better and exercising more. I want to lose 12.8 pounds. Highest weight: 215 SW: 204 CW: 174.8 July 4th goal: 162 & Exercise 5xs a week.
  7. My doctor told me I could have the occasional glass of wine at two weeks post op. I have been having a glass or two weekly since then. It feels a little different, slight burn, but still nice to have every now and then. Everything in moderation. I am almost three months post op and have lost thirty pounds so far. I have about 35 more pounds to lose until goal.
