You'll be fine, just follow the advice of the surgeon. "Don't clean or pick at the incisions until it heals". I learned my lesson.

I am only 10 days post op but find it so funny to have so many leftovers. I am in shock that i can only eat half or less of a Jello or pudding cup. Before i could eat all four or six in a package. I don't think i will ever finish my can of refried Beans.< /p>

I DID IT!!!
This past Saturday I ran my first 5k!
I did the "Run For Your Lives" zombie run and it was awesome! (Happy dance) Woohoo!! And I wasn't last place!!!! I'm on cloud nine right now! Here are the pictures of before and after the run. (Im the one in the middle with the scared shitless look on her face, lol)

Buying petite pants and not having to roll them up. For some reason stores think width goes with height.

My lucky 21st class reunion in Vegas!! October 2013. I have a year to make goal!!! Lol

Oh good question! I'm wondering the same thing. I have a 1/4 sleeve on my upper arm. I was wondering if it will shrink down like a design on a ballon Or get all strange looking. Lol

Hello,
We are neigbors!! i am in Brooklyn, near City Line. I was sleeved on Oct 2. And I am 3 weeks out. I am here for you if you have any questions. As far as what i brougt to the hospital... lets see, just the clothes on my back and my phone. The hospital provided everything else, even my toothbrush. I didnt need chapstick the nurses had mouth swaps for me that kept my mouth moist so i didnt get to the point of chapped lips. Good luck!!!

I'm so glad I came across this chat. I am 4 days out and have been really good until this afternoon.... I started craving sweets!!!! Omg. I was like this can't be happening. so I had a teaspoon of sugar free pudding. It solved my craving. But I've been sitting here since trying to figure out why I had such a strong craving until now. My cycle is starting up again!!!! It all makes sense now! Lol thanks ladies

Crispy roasted chickpeas. I believe it's 7g of Protein per a serving. All you do is bake one can of chickpeas lightly salted or spiced how you like. Pat dry with paper towel and drizzle with a little olive oil. And bake at 400f for about 30-40 mins. Or until they become crunchy. It's awesome!!! I discovered it online a few months ago as an alternative to potato chips!!! It's a great snack!
