I really like the white chocolate...it's not as sweet as you would think...a nice change from the chocolate ones... I want to get my hands on a sample of lemon and a few others... didn't care for the apple pie too much...but to each their own, right ... the cookie dough is fun to eat and think I'm really having cookie dough!

just bought a bunch ... $24 a box oh well....next time, but thanks!

I have been sitting on a stall...so I have not been able to break in to Onderland yet; which I fully expected to be by now...going to have to do something drastic soon

as we all know, every surgery has risks...most drs do a leak test when the complete the surgery or the next day to be sure that we are all sewed up nice and tight... you have to think "BIG PICTURE" of how this is going to be a benefit for you

I tried a probiotic, but it gives me dry mouth, etc... so I will use them up and go to Miralax...

I was so excited I don't think I worried about it...I knew, in the long run, this was going to help get me to a healthier state... and I haven't had a lot of surgeries... but we are all here for you to answer any concerns...but as stated, everyone is different... so what may have happened for others may not happen for you .... good luck You've GOT this!!!

I ended up with 3 weeks and then went back to work for half days the first week, which was GREAT for me... it's better to get approved for more time, and not need it as opposed to less time and then you can't get it extended! I'm sure they will welcome you back sooner than you were approved for, if you feel good Thanks my two cents worth

relax... the conversion is becoming more and more "popular" if that's the right word to use... all you can do is B R E A T H E and hope for the best... we are all pulling for you. Good luck and take care!

Eggface has great recipes...and this site has some as well... one of my favs is pounded chicken breast stuffed with spinach, ricotta, seasonings... roll up, put in toothpicks and bake... my husband likes to put tomato sauce on his... another thing for something crunchy that I make regularly are parmesan chips...yummy and easy and crunchy! great with salsa

You are an inspiration! Last night I was skimming thru Goodwill as it was next door to a place I had to go after work...and there they were, a pair of pink jeans!!! I wouldn't have looked at them before, but I picked them up and they were TOO BIG!!! happy/sad moment... But I have always been a navy or black bottom girl... so I may start branching out as well... green is a MUST for this month!!! Have fun...enjoy the new you!

If you are still feeling like that tomorrow, you should call your doctor (if you can't reach them today)...just to be sure that you aren't dehydrated or something... they may want to be sure...plus vomiting so close out is so not good for your tummy... hope you feel better soon. Take care!

it comes in little bits and pieces... like when you realize the steering wheel isn't hitting your tummy anymore...or that you NEED to move the seat up now movie seats are comfy again you can cross your legs so many little, wonderful, miracles that happen in our lives every day now that it doesn't matter what the scale says... we are just so HAPPY!!!

Yes, I agree... I have a tendency to ramble when I get nervous...so I was sure I'd blow it! But I was honest about my expectations, that I know I still have to work at this and that I am doing this for me and my health... I was a nervous wreck until I got the green light from them! Good luck, you've got this!!!

Yes he is...that's my birthday...so I will say a little prayer for all my new sleevers on that day as well... good luck... it is the best decision I have ever made!

Very unlikely that you stretched your sleeve... you may be eating more "slider" foods and not watching what you are eating will not help. I have to do the same thing... start weighing again and making sure I stay on task... follow the program and we will both be fine ... back off the sugar and carbs as much as possible

this is common, especially in the beginning when you are on liquids... if you are clogged you will want to do miralax or something of that nature (you can check with your dr) ... if you are clogged to that point you may need to do an enema to clean yourself out and then start taking miralax or something to help. I also use Smooth Move tea, which seems to help as well... this is a problem we will have going forward because of the lack of fats in our diet, and all the protein, so we have to help move things along ...

so cute... I think the slippers make the outfit!!! after all they do match,,, you look adorable in that pink!!!

always good to have something stashed in the freezer for "those" days thanks

I agree with the consensus here...it was about 50 pounds before anyone said anything and before I really noticed a difference... like that I needed a belt to keep my pants on!!!

My husband likes it...in fact he asked me to make it the other day for him ... he also prefers smashed cauliflower to mashed potatoes now... he has lost 30 pounds during this time "without even trying" just by making little changes along with me...like no carbonated beverages, etc... let's face it...most of those things are better because of the toppings anyway

oh yeah...forgot B12!!!! B12 forever

Doctors are different and you are different... you should call your doctor... I take a multi-vitamin, D3 and CoQ10, and calcium citrate...but that's what meets my needs, you need to find out what fits yours... good luck

Haven't had that experience...yet... but I'll be more aware now... interesting

I am more than 10 months out and I was approved!
