Yes, get one and put yours in a safe place! I lost mine at work. I never found it... Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Does anyone know if we can add chia seeds to shakes? I'm18 months out.

Amen! I also give God all the Glory! June 22nd was my one year anniversary and i am down 109 lbs. Surgery was made possibly by the Lord. My insurance didn't cover it and I didn't have the cash. God send me an angel with a check in hand to pay for my surgery...

My nut advised me if i could take a bite, then go about my business, then another...but under no circumstances to skip meals or planned snacks. I found out the hard way when i went back to work that i couldn't put off eating because i needed the "fuel" to keep going. Another trick, eat slowly but only what you can in 15 min or 20 at the mmost and then stop. You'll realize you are full...

Well, yesterday was my one year anniversary since my surgery. Starting weight was 247 lbs, now 138 lbs. Formerly a size 22 pant/dress size, using tops 2x. Now, lose size 6, tight 4; size small in tops. Can't believe it myself... [ATTACH]14525[/ATTACH]

I had hair loss at about 5 months out. Freaked out! But it lasted about 6 weeks. Doing way better...it grows back!

I am going on 7 months on the 22nd. Averaging about 1000 a day. Excited to say that as of last Saturday at weigh in, i have lost 100 lbs!!! Had hit a three week stall in January. My nut told me to up protein intake. Once i upped it from 60 to 70, i started losing weight again. She converted my weight in pounds to kilos. Then multiplied kilos by 1.05 to figure out what my protein should be.

Awesome! Its a great feeling. And sometimes thinking there is no way it's going to fit and then it does and it feels unbelievably great"

Don't confuse hunger with thirst. Need to up your fluid intake.
