  1. That was very helpful...thanks! Now I must save some money
  2. That's awesome, I remember when I got below 300, my knees stopped hurting. That was with a 27 pound loss, so 108 pounds of pressure!!!
  3. I've noticed that I've gotten some really dark circles under my eyes lately. One side is darker than the other too. I get anywhere from 8-9 hours of sleep a day. I've used a few creams and nothing seems to work. Does anyone have any remedies I can try?
  4. Congratulations! That's truly wonderful!!!
  5. sleeved on 1/30/13 weighed 276 currently 245 lost 31 pounds so far
  6. This has been the hardest part for me. I'm lucky that I don't get sick when I'm done, I just get full quicker. Some tips that have helped me is using a regular plate and either a baby spoon or fork. In between bites, I'll make my powdered drinks, I'll pack my lunch for work or I'll wash a dish or two..anything that will take me longer to finish my food. Before you know it, I'm full before I even finish my entire plate.
  7. I'm 2 1/2 months out and I keep losing alot of hair on a daily basis. Its in the shower, in my car, on my brush. Doc just says to take biotin. I was taking that before I had surgery. I was losing because of a certain medication I was taking. It didn't help.
  8. Congrats! You're doing great!!!
  9. I've been thinking of eating a burger too but from Whataburger.
  10. Those sound so good, wish I wasn't so lazy to cook.
  11. Oh nice! I'll know what to get next time I'm there...thanks!
  12. It use to be everyday but that was driving me crazy so its once a week now.
  13. If they're big, I can eat 4 of them but if they're on the small side, then 6 with Ranch on the side of course
  14. I've been eating hot wings since week 4...I'm able to tolerate it well
  15. I did once in my 3rd or 4th week. I felt like I was drunk and so dizzy, not sure what brought it on? It did last a little over an hour though.
  16. They will only keep u from jiggling. I like to wear them from the waist down to my knees because around the incisions, they tend to hurt after awhile.
  17. Thanks! That's some awesome advice
  18. I can't wait to try water aerobics, just need to get comfortable in a bathing suit
  19. Well I tried strawberry Unjury with some light cranberry juice and it was ok then it got to me and I couldn't finish it. I give up with this flavor. I'm gonna wait til I'm able to use milk next month to finish this container. I'm just gonna have to eat more meat.
  20. Oh ok, thanks for the visual!
