  1. :welcome: Hi, congrats on being sleeved, you are having great success!! It's great how things worked out for you!!
  2. Congrats you look wonderful!
  3. Hi fellow sleevers, just fyi, Target has Just Dance 2, Zumba, Michael Jackson The Experience all on sale for $27. This is in the stores as well as the website. But the sale ends tomorrow at closing time.
  4. Thanks Julia, the great part is it doesn't even feel like a diet at all. It's just eating smaller/ normal meals. After the liquid diets pre and post it is really great! I have my whole MX experience now in my "about me" section now. And a few pics in the glallery. Take care!!
  5. Hi Julia, I only stayed one night, but I stayed at the Hacienda Del Rio because Lucerna was booked up. It's up to you but I'd let Trish or whoever, know your plans before you schedule your flight. I wish I had stayed the extra nIght because I was enjoying myself and hanging out with my sleeve sisters. I hear Lucerna is very nice too. Good luck to y'all please update on how things are going! Oh, and the hotels are close to Dr Kellys office from what I understood.
  6. I had it with the tape too but i also had thrush on my tongue so i wasnt sure if it was an allergic reaction or yeast. I removed the tape and got some of those Danactive yogurt Probiotic drinks and both went away.
  7. Congrats, you're doing fantastic!! :cheer2:
  8. That's amazing, congrats!!! :cheer2:
  9. I drink almost right up until I eat, but refrain from drinking during my meal unless it's just an occasioonal tiny sip to keep from choking. I usually keep plain water on hand, and since i don't like plain water, this also discourages me from drinking during meals. I then set my phone alarm for 30-40 mins then start drinking. It's not that hard for me cuz I started doing it months before my surgery. Also, the amount of food is so small during my meals so I don't get overly thirsty.
  10. Congrats on being sleeved!! Yep I experienced the.no hunger too. Its a wonderful thing!!
  11. Congrats on being sleeved!! ThAnk you for sharing the details of your experience. I hope you have a speedy fecovery, so happy for you.
  12. I think Dr Rodriquez does it, but down pymt was like $3500, which is about half the total cost. Seems like I remember someone mentioning Dr Almanza too, but I am not sure. Good luck!!
  13. I'm sorry you're having a rough time. At 4 wks some of the swelling should be down but I have heard can take up to 6 wks. It can be overwhelming. Are you on a PPI/acid reducer? Sometimes acid can feel like gnawing hunger. It can also cause nausea. Is your urine dark? That is a sign of dehydration, and nuasea can also be a symptom of dehydration. I highly recommend the PPI it can make such a big difference. I hope you feel better soon. If not please call your surgeon.
  14. Congrats!! Living the sweet sleeved life is so awesome!! I feel so much better and have so much more energy too. I love my sleeve!
  15. Wow, thats fantastic!!! I know it must of been a thrill!! Way to rock that sleeve!! :cheer2:
  16. I have seen others post this as "secret weapon" to breaking a stall lol. Or losing consistently. Maybe I should try it more often lol!! Lol @ wheetsin on the average married sex. So do the single people burn more calories? The married folks gotta up their game on the freakiness!!! I hope I don't get banned from VST for talking bout sexercise!!
  17. Good luck on an easy surgery and speedy recovery! Update us as soon as you feel up to it!!
  18. Congrats on being sleeved and home now!!

  21. Awesome, you are rocking that sleeve!! :cheer2:
  22. Good luck on an easy surgery and speedy recovery!!
  23. There is also Zumba for Wii, but I haven't tried it. I tried Just Dance 2 for Wii and I love it. I've also been doing Turbo Jam on dvd. Its a little slower lower impact than Tae Bo so I can keep up easier. Its way too hot to do anything outside here.
  24. I would usually go ahead and count all of what i measured cuz i would normally finish it later. I use myfitnesspal app on my iphone. Its free, and is also a website you can use on the pc as well. I like using the app on phone cuz i always have it with me and it has a huge food database.
