  2. When is your surgery? Best of luck!
  3. I really liked him very professional! Scars are flat and he was very easy to talk to.
  4. Weight loss surgical center peformed my surgery wishing I went to Dr Malley! No support bad fill experiences admin issues filed complaint with no response! Loved my surgeon and the hospital stay was wonderful, beyond that I do not have many positive things to say. Oh, and my biggest complaint they do not have a nutritionalist on staff! REALLY!
  5. Lady Laine...Best of luck! Yes, you can do this! Stay determined and you can win this battle.

  7. I am so happy to hear your successful results! Your are encouragement for us all to obtain our own success in our journey! Thanks for the update, I have been thinking about you and praying for your success!
  8. The jawbone up has no monthly fees and it plugs into your iphone or iPad to update your information. I wanted something I would or could not misplace I also like the sleep tracking. It will wake you by shaking on your wrist when you have meet your optimum sleep time. You may scan, type or search food lists tracks salt cholesterol carbs etc. I challenge myself to obtain my 10,000 steps each day! Love my up!
  9. I am wearing a jawbone up bracelet which is similar to the body bug designed for iPhones and iPads I love the idea I can track activity, intake and sleep.. My up is my new favorite thing!
  10. My last fill gave me another huge bruise and I really think they missed my port. It was a brand new practitioner very sore at port? Don't feel any new restriction at all! . I am going back next week to find a solution! Good luck with yours!
  11. I have been on Biotin and find I continue to have hair in the drain at the end of my shower! So Depressing! I am my parents daughter, both light on hair!

  14. Hummus and cucumbers for me no heating necessary. Will also alternate with chicken salad with pineapple mixed in with cashews. Protein bars low in sugar and carbs. I keep one in my handbag for emergencies.

  16. Same here...always have had large muscular calves, boots have never fit, even as a size 9.. You may have to look for boots made for larger calves. Good luck!
  17. Yes.....do your research, it is so important. Make sure you have access to a nutritionist and support groups. Get to know who would be running your support group and be sure you like and trust them. Know that your support system will be in place and rely on them for your success. I wish I had done more research in the beginning. Loved my surgeon not thrilled about the lack of support. The center does not employ a nutritionist so I have to seek my information on the web. Working through my challenges and determined to be successful! My only true regret is that I waited so long! Good luck in your journey!
  18. Please keep us posted! Best of luck on the new you! Thoughts and prayers are with you in your journey!

  25. You have it right...band hell until the fills begin to do the work. I feel to a degree I will have to work at this always and forever....however, fills do assist and make it easier! Good luck in your journey! YES....you can!
