  1. I definately don't want one now right after surgery since I'm still losing weight. I guess I was more curious as to if waiting less than the year mark would be an issue.
  2. Its 3 months after my surgery and my husband and I are considering having another baby.. I haven't talked to the drs yet but have read that the best time is 18 months after. Truth is I don't want to wait that long for many reasons. We have 2 kids 3 and 2 and I will be 35 in July.. from everyone's experience, when is too soon? I have a regular visit with my gyn in 2 weeks and may ask to have my IUD removed...
  3. I hit 55 lbs yesterday!!! I'm so excited!! I've already dropped 2 sizes!
  4. I finally got around to this about a week ago and it was fantastic!!!! My whole family loved it.
  5. I just hit 50 down yesterday so I'm super excited!!! I do exercise almost every day with my kids. Lol and I keep track of what I eat in my fitness pal.
  6. Sleeve date was Sept 20th and I'm down 50 lbs. I feel great!!
  7. I've had my mirena for almost 2 years and hadn't had a period until after the surgery .. the Dr just said its your body going thru shock from the anesthesia. I haven't had any issues from it that I'm aware of.. my weight loss has been steady. I hope it doesn't effect it.. I don't want to remove it... No more kiddies over here!!! 2 is enough for this momma!! Lol
  8. Surgery 9/20 Starting weight- 258 Current weight - 216 )
  9. I really want to make this but can't find the wonton wrappers.
  10. I am on regular food now and wonder what I should avoid such as when cam I eat lettuce and salads?
  11. This sounds fantastic!!! I'm.making this this weekend.
  12. I feel like I'm back in high school. GROW UP!!! There are more important things to worry about than if someone is " selling" something. I joined this group for support since I am newly sleeved... Read advise for the issues I am sure I will encounter in the future ... Get information as well... I am so disgusted with this behavior of a grown man that I would almost consider leaving the group.. then I see there are so many other people that are so supportive I won't let one person deter me... It's just irritating beyond words.
  13. How is injury powder? I have been using isopure. They don't have strawberry but the chocolate and vanilla isn't bad.
  14. You should be able to get it at any grocery store. Sometimes the organic section
  15. Wait until at least 5 weeks... I tried too soon and I was hurting and just physically not ready.
  16. I thought this was supposed to be a support group and not a bickering fest. To each its own.. if you don't agree with something said It's ok to voice your opinion because that's exactly what it is.. an opinion. What doesn't work for one may work for the next. One persons way is best for them so let it go...
  17. I had the same issue and then it started coming off.. I'm down 40 and its been almost 6 weeks. So dont get discouraged.. its a tool and once you get active it will get better. It's early on so its normal.
  18. Thank you everyone!!!!!
  19. My surgery was Sept 20th and I hit 40lbs down!! I feel so much better. More energy and am more active!
  20. I haven't had any cookies yet... I did have a bite of a twizzler. Lol my daughter didn't want it and handed to me and like second nature I bit it then threw the rest out after catching myself.
