  8. Incision pain on or around the incision is normal and it can feel like someone is stabbing you. Your muscle tissue and everything underneath your skin is going through healing. Many of the questions newly sleeved brothers and sisters have are addressed in previous threads. Do a search of you have time. Many of us have already experienced it and wrote about it and got answers on here.
  9. I'm in Houston too? Have you had your surgery? acid reflux may also feel like a burning in your throat. You may cough or hack during a spell. I had acupuncture and it subsided for about 3 weeks. I now take Zantac and get a lot of relief. U have found that in the days I exercise I don't experience terrible reflux.

  12. Impressive loss! Congrats and I was hoping your were a male when I read your stats..men loose faster than women.
  13. I started at 357 lbs pre/op (June 14) day of surgery (June 28) I was 340 lbs and today I am 304 lbs.
  14. I am not a parent of special needs children but I have triplet brothers who are special needs dual diagnosis for each one. This is a subject near and dear to me. I am trying to convince my mom to have the surgery. Although my brothers are 42 and have their own place and caregivers, life is still a challenge for my parents. My mom could get around better for them with the weight off.
  15. Kicking butt and taking names....I am 16 lbs from my Labor Day Challenge goal weight!!!

    Not a recipe but I thought I would share: Lipton has a diet green tea watermelon flavor that was refreshing and just a bit of variety from water. Zero sugar, zero carbs, zero calories. It tasted really good!
