  1. Mine says it always has to have at the very least 1.5 cups of liquid..I have both the old fashion rattler and an electric one
  2. I have Aenta and I gained 13-14lbs in that 6 month weigh period and I was suppose to lose..but since I quit smoking during the wait..they approved me in less then a week after my paperwork was turned in..if I had not been a smoker they would of denied me and I would of had to loses the 10 plus the 14 I gained b4 I would be approved...each plan is so different with so many little catches..best of luck to you!!
  3. So happy for you..good products can make all the difference in the world keep up with the deep conditions too!!
  4. Mine were over my staples and came off abt 5 days after surgery..had the staples removed 7 days after and new steri strips put back on my port incision
  5. I smoked for over 20 years and my dr made me quit b4 he would even do the surgery..if u really feel u need one try a vapor electronic one...every now and again when I feel like I really really want one..I will use that
  6. To stand in front of a packed school gym and walk my daughter out on the floor at Senior night to receive her cheerleading award and not feel embarrassed the evil part of me will be knowing that the ex husbands new wife who told my kids I was taking the easy way out..will still be bigger than me =)
  7. Heating pad!!..did more for me then the pain meds

    Women come in my salon everyday with this problem so u have nothing to be embarrassed about..waxing is the best method of removal..it will damange the hair folicial over time and prevent the hair from growing..not completely but u will notice it's not as course..if ur not comfortable going to a salon to have it done..I belv u can get a wax pot at ulta..I would avoid pre-waxed strips they dont work and end up just breaking the hair off not pulling it out
  9. I found one for summer squash..and I had an abundance in my garden this summer so I have tons in the freezer can't wait to try it and this one!!
  10. If u like the it's a 10 line try the Orange cap it's a keratin line..love the miracle oil..I flatiron my hair daily..and just add a small amout from my ears down when it's wet..then again b4 I iron it
  11. The 3 pack should be the shampoo conditioner and a scalp treatment..I had my gallbladder taken out and 3 months later wrist surgery..surgery is very hard on the hair I used it faithfully b4 and after for almost a year had very minimum hair loss.
  12. Dry hair..then iron or curl
  13. One of my all time fav must have products!!!
  14. U can use the oil on dry hair also..just a tiny bit goes a long way b4 you use the flat iron..or another good one is super skinny by Paul Mitchell..I got between both of them on dry hair b4 I curl or iron
  15. I use Nioxin on my clients with thinning hair...for breakage I'd recommend Paul Mitchells Strength line they have a great leave in spray and also a deep condition
  16. I absolutely think u should do it..I wish I had gotten my band when I was only wanting to lose 25lbs...now 5 years later I got banded and it's 75lbs I'm trying to drop!!...do it for urself if it makes u happy..yes surgery sucks and is painful it's surgery not a day at the spa..best of luck to you!!
  17. I also have Aenta Pos ll...my 2 year history was from PCP..and I gained 15 during the 6 month wait and was approved in less then a week after my last weight in..sounds like u have everything in order..I know the waiting process is stressful..hang in there sending you positive thought for approval 242..surgery 9/5...now 218
  18. Dr.Lahmann did my surgery on 9/6 at Silver Cross..he is amazing...and such a wonderful office staff also..I'm going for my first fill on the 3rd
  19. I put chicken and turkey in my chopper and added broth or a light mayo...my dr said he allowed the mayo cause it was such a small amount..i made it a lot thinner then pre-band of course.
  20. I did the same thing once and I was in so much pain!!...u need that time to heel ur body..if I ate pure protein mushed up I stayed fuller longer.,turkey tuna chicken and eggs kept me full
