  1. I said it needed vodka, not swap it. That's why your tummy is throwing fits lol
  2. It's a stall honey. I was at one for almost 2 weeks. Just get your water and protein in. Your body just caught up and is screaming "what the h*ll are you doing to me?" I'm only a week further than you. It just started back. Don't focus on weight either. I took pics of my stomach during this stall. Took one last night... A huge difference. Your body may change, just not your weight. Hang on.
  3. Lies lol. You added vodka didn't you lol. So happy it wasn't too bad for you. Good luck today.
  4. Doubled post... Oops. And also meant to say full liquids lol
  5. It's ok Momsie... Hunger is ok. First we're losing weight so fast it's releasing hormones and new, one of those his ghrelin or whatever lol. It's stored in our fat. Plus I'm also 5 weeks out. I'm only on clear liquids (appointment tomorrow. New food here I come lol) I luckily don't really get hungry that much. I only eat 3 times a day right now including my shake... Yes only one. It alone takes almost 2 hours to drink. I drink A LOT. Sometimes when I'm hungry I take a few swallows of water and it subsides. It will ease up.
  6. Take it slow honey. Have you tried different temps of water? My stomach spasmed at first with cool water and cold. Keep your head up. It will stop. I'll keep you in my thoughts.
  7. Wow... I wanna be just like you when I slim up :-) This gives me such a positive out look. You said what every person pre and new post op needs to hear. Thank you so much
  8. Congratulations! Two words of advice. Walk AS MUCH as you can and SIP sip sip as often as you can or they allow. Welcome to the loser's club :-)
  9. Sorry Lissa... I started it lol. I'll go to the corner lol
  10. Think that's why I jumped there. Been thinking about Jack all day and my young days lol. But, to be completely honest, I'm always in the gutter lol
  11. My mind went straight to the gutter. Gotta admit... Thought you were going to say it was because you were... Hmmm... How do you say?... Rougher lol. But keep with boxer briefs unless for sexy date. Better for your boys and less movement :-)
  12. I lost 20 in 12 days. It is possible. In 6 weeks I've lost 43 pounds. That includes the 20 lost preop.
  13. From what I have been seeing you should be around 600-800 calories. 1200 calories is for maintenance time. When you have reached your goal.
  14. I get hungry. And yes, sometimes I let myself get too empty, like when I have long meetings. But even taking a drink of water eases this feeling. I never expected hunger to completely disappear. I mean when your stomach gets empty, it's going to tell you. Just know you'll fill easy, and as long as you choose the right choices you'll lose weight.
  15. Barrbdoll is right. I walked out of the hospital 10 pounds heavier. Give it time. I know I expected it to just fall off after surgery. It was like I went through all of this and only this much. It's a journey. Take time and actually enjoy it. It's all new experiences and feelings. Happy moments of little victories. Congrats on being sleeved. :-)
  16. All I could say to my husband is it would taste better with vodka lol. Yes, strong salty sprite with a bad after taste.
  17. Great ones ladies... Here's mine. A little bit forward, but hey, that's me. I can't wait till the day my husband can carry me off to the bedroom. All those romance novels got me ruined
  18. Each insurance company is different. What I did was call mine up and see what I had to do for me to qualify. Write it down, and go down the list to make sure you got everything. Good luck honey.
  19. You're gonna question if it's worth it. You're gonna bargain with yourself... If I only eat one burger, no one will know... Keep strong. At least you get a cup of veggies... I still haven't had that much and I'll be 5 weeks Thursday lol
  20. The little one will be fine. I had to go through the same thing. First night away from her was the worse on me. She was fine. Just focus on yourself tomorrow. Bring a stuffed animal your little one's and have it ready for you when they bring you back to your room. It helped. Other than that, you will do fine chica. Just breath. You're doing this for the little one
  21. If you google the world according to eggface, you will find TONS.
