Bought an under armour shirt n shorts yesterday. Ill see if any changes.

I tried to drink a Mojito yesterday' date=' but started to feel drunk after about 2 ounces and had to throw it out. [/quote']

Yeah alcohol seems to work much faster now

No stalls more than a week.

Not sure how youve managed to survive that! Congrats!

Lol thanks for the warning!!

But it tastes n burns soooo gooood lol (Rumple)

I wear my bodymedia fit link all day and during my workout. Plus you can link it to other sites like walgreens to earn points in their rewards program. Im almost at 8k points just for work and working out - all bc i wear my monitor

I drink a Protein Shake 30mins before and one 30mins after. EAS Advantage have a good strawberry one thats 17gm of Protein, 100 cals, and only 2.5gm of carbs. I drink that brand almost exclusively.

I'm about 5 months post op... My 21st birthday is in 6 months which will make it 11 months post op & for my 21st birthday of course I want to go out & have a drink.

What drinks settle good? & you haven't had problems with? Just need opinions on drinks..

To the ppl that have negative comments don't try it with me...

Miller light, margaritas, vodka n diet coke, malibu n diet coke, Jello shots, colorado bulldog, and rumple. Be warned - a shot of rumple knocked me on my butt the other night!

Update?

Anyone tried it? Thoughts? Help with loose skin or weight loss?

Im 6 months post out and been on a stall for the past 7 weeks. Very frustrating when i have 50pounds to goal weight.

God you too? 5 1/2 months out - bout to start the 4th week stalled.. 50lbs to go

Its not physically possible to give up - it just sure beats the hell out of you emotionally... Considering everything we have to change... Giving up out only means of emotional support.. Etc.

So ive been stalled at 228-230 since May 15... Im at the point i dont even get excited about the possibility of seeing a loss. Im 5 1/2 months out and wondering if maybe this is it... Im still 48-50 lbs from MY goal of 180. The BMI chart says I should be at 168 to be the HIGHEST normal for 5'9". Ive been getting 70-100gm Protein, plenty of Fluid, tried cutting carbs, tried upping carbs... I eat 1000-1200 calories a day. I started working out regularly 3-4 weeks ago... Walking 3.5 mph at a 5% incline for 30 minutes then weights after.

Im seeing my arms and feeling my legs grow but shouldnt this INCREASE my fat burning and help the weightloss??

Has anyone stalled this long this far (or further) out? Whats your story? Howd you handle it and not get angry/depressed?? Is this it? Looking for any hope right now..

I kinda of like the "act your age not your pant size" I actually can see you sticking your tongue out on that one!!

But really I live for a good fight but I think Ntvtxn

Is having an off day.

So I vote for ending this thread??

Didnt we already when she started acting out on another post?? Same topic?? She want a cookie for being perfect or what?

I mean seriously she just asked when she could pissibly have soda....im saying this is ridiculous. ..she didnt ask to be judged she asked bc she wants some damn soda I dont kno y ppl act like now that they are sleeved they have absolutely no desire to and a treat they had once before even a skinny b!!&! Eat a cheeseburger foh....I dont kno about everyone else but I am doing this to be healthier nooooo I dont drink soda but I do love wine a hope to be able to have a glass in the future AND YES I do LOVE sweets and hope to have them again in the future def not in excess but YES IN MODERATION....the sarcasm and rude remarks are uncalled for u are not better then the next if u dont have anything nice to say dont say sh** honestly I have no problem with encouraging someone not to do it for whatever reason but its a way to say things def dont need the ignorant a**holes its not even that serious...I say no u prolly shouldnt drink soda just like I prolly shouldnt eat sugar.......but I wont deprive myself of anything I want I will just tey to make better choices one thing I dont want is to gain the weight bak ever but I dont think drinking one damn diet soda will put bk bak to morbid obesity smfh

^^ this ^^

Heah - (inquisitive tone) Spell check wants Heath' date=' head or hear.[/quote']

Ive got quite the suspicion you're the only one here struggling with that.

we're a pretty arrogant bunch.

[sARCASTIC TONE] NOOOOOOO.... You??? Get outta heah.... [\SARCASTIC TONE]

People like that make this forum a not so nice site to come to. Clearly still miserable with herself. Ask your doctor and see what they say. Do what makes you happy!! In the end you are all that matters! Good luck

Amen. This place is nothing like it was when i joined last year. So many rude people. OP asked for feedback - not a sermon. Maybe she cant handle others kicking her off her soap box.

And so what if she went to MX? Shes still alive i see. No complications from what I can tell. Not everyones insurance will pay the god awful price that US doctors charge. Some have to pay out of pocket. Guess what - most of what you use/wear/drive is probably made in China.

So?

Is this a SERIOUS question???!!!! I'm three years out and I knew PRIOR to surgery that cokes.....carbonated drinks' date=' were the ONE thing I was not EVER suppose to do. Someone else asked you and I didn't take the time to see if you responded, but why would you WANT to. There is NOTHING about a soft drink, regular or diet, that is good for you. [/quote']

Im pretty sure it was or she wouldnt have wasted her time asking it.

Im pretty sure she knows the rules, but was curious about others experiences. No reason to jump down her throat. If you dont have an experience then not much reason to post?

I am 4 months post op and I would love a drink of cold soda anyone tried soda yet?

I know you didnt ask this question to be preached at - which will undoubtedly happen.

Im five months out. I have one every week or two - nothing like I did pre-op.

started at four months out.

I'm six months out and I have loose skin on my arms' date=' inner thighs, and tummy. It's not too bad. [/quote']

Same here. Ive started lifting to try to fill the space up with muscle. So far i can tell theyre getting bigger but still dealing with loose skin.

Wow you look great!

Okay so' date=' i have not lost weight in 2 mos. and June 11th will be my 6 mos out. I was in my last semester of RN school and i totally stopped going to the doc, stopped checking forums, stopped being a sleever. I am 51 lbs down and my "honeymoon" is over. I called and made a appt with my doc and dietician and joined the gym today. I want to reset my sleeve and i saw that some people go back on liquids. Does it work? and how long? Anyway, I have to get back on track. I saw some old pics last night and i saw the sadness and misery on my face. I can NEVER go back there.[/quote']

Youll get going again. Ill be watching for feedback on resetting too. Theres something out there called five day pouch test which may work.

That would make it more dry and if your asking if I smoked it..at 10 days post op id be pretty stupid to have some reefer lol

Lol no it was an attempt at sarcastic humor you asked what causes dry mouth lol

Last week one of the girls wrote me a love poem.

RUN!

Fast.

And far.

Reefer...
