  2. Got Imitrex feeling better. Thanks for the responses. Wishing y'all Wellness!
  3. Well honey, lift up your head. Really don't worry. i say that because they who are less informed will come with all kind of responses in the beginning. They are just concerned. I wished i knew in the beginning when my hubby was skeptical that still he would turn out to be my greatest supporter For me. My mind was made up. My health was first. i don't regret having my sleeve. I love it. Yea, I felt disappointed too at at first. But I didn't let others lack of knowledge stop me for continuing on with the program. I did it for me. I even went to mostly all the classes and doctors visits by my self till in the end. You may experience skeptical people especially from people close to you be prepared. You ve worked hard and come too Far. I know things all changed for me when, my hubby went to my psych appointment with me. I was too nervous to go alone. Thats when, started to get on board. It also helped that My program required us to bring someone if possible to the last 2 classes and he came. In the hospital he also impressed me. He did everything for me in the hospital And afterwards. But some others surprised me by their reluctancy to be their for me. Anyway as of today 8 months of prep work and 11 months later, my hubby never waiver in his support after attending the psych class. It is a major change. This is only my opinion and life story. I'm not a predictor of outcome just saying you are more informed than he is so his response could be a lack of Education. Give him time, take him to class and make it a date. Good Luck You can do it!
  4. All for trying over the counter herbal first. Thanks
  5. Good luck, i feel the same way about medication. had dizziness with it at work scared of passing out i use to stay home. but not trying to keep that up. lol so went to work with it that it came and went maybe a rebound one. took motrin only, while working. so i totally get what you are saying.

  19. I want to loose 40lbs and get to goal. This will take a serious effort. Gained 3lbs baking but lost it this week was sick. Only got a short time frame so even if I loose half I'll be happy.
  20. I too Fudged it up this holiday. I love to bake so there goes my trigger foods . I baked a little compared to before but enough to gain 2 -3 lbs. So I gained 2-3 lbs. it's not a lot but the behavior Started. I still have 40lbs to loose. Well unfortunately I have be been sick with Stomach virus such it feels like the restriction came back with a vengeance. That's the good side effect. Hoping that though my tummy heals from this Virus! But this has caused me to re group today. Started working on protein today and water. I'm 10 1/2 months out And had stopped my protein shakes. Didn't like them any more. But now I want to seriously loose the weight. Thanks Fiddleman for this thread.
