  1. Had surgery in Mexico. Doctor never mentioned crushing pills. I've been taken them whole since day one.
  2. Wow! Hope someone has a answer for this one. My tailbone has been killing me. I never thought it could be related to the surgery.
  3. Pretty sure your Surgeon will want to wait until your at goal. But If your going larger, I can't see why you should have to wait.
  4. Scan option? Are you using a smart a phone? Scan option? is that with a smart phone?
  5. I joined My Fitness Pal, but I haven't used it much. It's time consuming trying to find what I ate on their system and log it..Maybe I'm not doing something right? Dana, Good Idea on the post. Do you want want the entire days menu? Breakfast: Protein shake Lunch: salad with chopped ham and cheese Dinner: Potato Soup Snack: xtra small purple cow and before bed yogurt covered raisins.
  6. Your smile says it all. Great Job!
  7. I confess, it's still my biggest challenge..I have always been a fast eater. Four months out, and I'm getting better, but still haven't broke the habit. I don't always hurt, but I've slimed more than I care to admit..It mostly happens when eating out, or eating with people other than my family.
  8. Two nights in the hospital. Surgery was in Cancun, so the only visitors were my Husband, and two children "16 and 27," that went with us. I slept most of the first day and night. The second night I couldn't sleep, so I watched Hispanic cooking shows. Talk about ironic.
  9. Yes, it does get better! I can't remember how much I could eat at 4 weeks, but it wasn't much. It took what seemed like forever, before I could hold the recommended protein and liquid. The good thing about the protein shakes, is it counts for both protein/liquid. There are still days when I would rather drink my breakfast and dinner than eat. .
  10. It seems depression is a common side effect for weight loss surgery. Something about losing weight, and how your hormonal balance shifts. Think positive, pray and continue to see your therapist. It will get better.
  11. Heavenly Father, we ask your healing virtue and anointing,to flow through Kali's body. We ask you to loose angels around her, to guard and protect her. We pray for wisdom and guidance for her Doctor and nurses, in Jesus name, Amen!
  12. Every time I have a stall, I up my calories and it breaks. I believe your body become adjusted to what ever your doing, and just needs a little shake up every now and then...
  13. Glad to hear your feeling better! God is good...
  14. I hate to waste food. I'm picky what I feed to my dogs. "They get gas that will run a human out of the room." Someone gave me baby chicks for Easter. Now, I never throw leftovers in the trash, cause those chickens will eat ALMOST anything!
  15. I believe it allows more air, therefore more gas...Honestly, I've been using a straw since day 5 and have had no problems what so ever! Try one, if you get gas pains, put it away. " I've always been a rule breaker", lol!
  16. I was told not to bother with the protein shots, that your body won't absorb the collagen protein.
  17. Congrats! Wishing you a happy, healthy, long life!
  18. Prayers going out to you and all the November sleevers!!!
  19. Prayers for a successful surgery and quick recovery. See ya on the losers bench!
