  1. Count me in. Helps me stay motivated.... Hw 243 Sw 213 (8/29) CW. 181 GW 175 ( losing .8-2 lbs a wk)
  2. If the panty girdle hits right on the stomach area it does hurt, try wearing a tank top style or a girdle that goes right about the bra line. I've had it happen to me the panty girdle wasn't long enough and it sat right in that area and it was very painful.
  3. I was wearing before surgery and I started wearing them couple wks after surgery. I have several styles and colors , tank top , some are long sleeved or short sleeve to help with the loose skin on the upper arms. I have some that come from the Bra line down to the thigh. I love wearing them. I hate the feeling I get when I do not wear one.

  5. I sm so jealous of those who can drink their 64+oz of water. For the past 3 months I have tried so hard to drink more fluids and I went to PCP and told him I was afraid of dehydration and he told me to sip and keep trying. I keep trying I keep various bottles of different fluids on my desk and only manage 6-12 oz of fluids + my 2 shakes. It is so frustrating that that I have stomach pain when I drink my water. It is hot and humid and I run at lunch time so I know the importance of trying to keep hydrated. So if anyone experienced the stomach pain and fustration please tell me what u did different to over come this situation?
  6. Lmao.. you are becoming too funny. I probably will need an all over body over haul. Before I know it my boobs are going to be at my waist line (lol) and my arms already look like bat wings.. I have to walk around like I am conceited ...my face and nose pointing up to keep my neck stretched. OMG. I am going to be an old saggy 50 yr old woman. I still need 40 lbs to go. Oh no I am freaking out. I know this is part of the WL and I know some of the sagginess well get better if I just add firming and resistance training. I will just take it one day at a time.
  7. I am almost 3 months out and I can not tolerate water of any kind, flavored, hot warm or cold, ..it really feels me up and it pains me.... I am lucky if I can drink 8-16 oz of water a day. I do drink 2 shakes a day to help with fluids. I just keep trying and hope that I will be able to drink my 64 oz in the near future.
