    Ideal weight question

    My wife is 5'9" she was 150lbs when we met. Even at that she wasn't a rail. She was fit, small chested with a booty that was like....... POW!!!

    Marijuanna

    They are designed for this particular purpose. And it doesn't "take the smell away" as much as it doesn't create the smell because there is no combustion.

    Vaping is using a vaporizer. It delivers the THC without the smoke or smell. With a good portable vaporizer like an "iolite" you could "smoke" 3' from someone & they're never know.

    It starts liquid. Then after a couple weeks it turns solid.

    ____ years old and never...

    You have no idea how lucky you are to have not gone the debt route. IMO debt free is tge only way to live. I did it for years, then I tried the debt thing, NEVER AGAIN. I even advocate the 100% down program on houses.

    Is. Dr. Aceves really THAT great?

    Ha ha ha ha. I think he us still stuck in 1975. There is no real money in stealing organs anymore.
  8. I find it amusing that people post in this thread just to point out that ppl are still posting. Kind of like waking someone up to tell them it's bedtime.

    I add 2tblsp and put it in the fridge for 10-15 min. So, yes, semi gelled.
  10. Typically as long as your policy covers the sleeve, as long as you are over 40BMI you should get approved. Typical criteria is BMI over 40, or over 35 w/2 comorbidities.

    Positive Self-Talk

    Honestly, I don't need much self talk. All the extra attention keeps me motivated. Not to mention how great I feel now. You couldn't pay me to turn back.
  12. I agree. There is more to the story. But my thought is there might have been a true 5-6lb gain. The rest is likely retained Water & possibly a wardrobe difference. But then again I'm just speculating. Heck, it might have been 2 different scales with one out of calibration.
  13. No cat fighting???? Can we kick cats??

    How do you deal with the cravings?

    I'm curious, have you been eating mashed potatoes? I notice that everything you are craving is full of carbs. Carb cravings are usually triggered by eating other carbs.

    Greys Anatomy!

    NO SPOILERS!!!!!! I have to wait for the iPad app to update to watch the latest episode.
  16. Just wondering, if he's still lurking here occasionally or if anybody has seen him recently.

    Portion of food

    I've never had any restriction of liquids at all. And as far as veggies go, I think you are fine. Veggies usually have a lot of Water in them, plus, if you are talking about salads or the like, 2 cups really doesn't amount to much. The only thing that concerns me is you never mentioned Protein. Make sure your Proteins are addressed before veggies.

    VSG and sleep apnea

    I've been on a CPAP for about 8 years now. I'm 9mo post-op & really think I would pass a sleep study now. However, due to the high cost involved in going to a sleep lab (home studies aren't accepted in my business) I'm going to wait a few more months. As far as anecdotal evidence, I really don't need much sleep anymore. And even when I do go without my machine, I've been told that I don't snore anymore & I don't gasp for air either.
