Yippy for you!
They will just keep coming from here,
Some of my first NSVs were things like putting on non wide calf boots, wearing a normal hotel towel instead of a sheet LOL Walking 3-5 miles and not really feeling much, picking my son up with out heaving him over my hip. losing my shoe size by 2 and having ot buy new shoes, shopping at VS for real size bras and panties. borrowing a skinny friends clothing and them fitting better than on her.
Hugging my husband or being intimate with him and feeling very close rather than a body in between us.

why the heck do you think you stretched your sleeve, Its virtually impossible,
more info would be helpful

Its a very common phenomenon. You may or may not ever be warm again like you used it. Its very hard for the body to regulate temp when you are losing so quickly. There is much more to your fat cells than just fat, Hormones have alot to do with this.
Best thing I can advise is get a little heater for your office and dress in layers.
Good luck,
and as I say these are skinny bitch problems LOL

That's a little odd for sure, When I get full I can almost literally feel my tube, for lack of a better word, and its right under my sternum.

So sorry,
Can I ask how much it is?
Maybe you can look into going to MX for a fraction of the cost like I did, Instead of 20K I paid $5500
Good luck to you, all things in their own perfect timing?!

Divert and distract and in turn you divert and distract yourself from food,
Get in the car go find a huge box, make an airplane or castle, Get some crayons and draw pictures to put all over the frig,
Make a glitter Water bottle to settle her/his mind.
Go see the animals at petco
There are a million things to do to distract and divert!

Mine used a 36 boogie, I had 90% of my stomach removed, When I watched the video if my surgery and live leak test it looked like a long sharpie.

Sorry no one has answered you,
I went to MX and they have american plugs, no need for adapters.
As far as cell phones I turned my on airplane mode and left it there, I talked to my family and friends via Whatsapp and Gtalk, I was able to video chat on G talk, even got to watch my kids basketball game that way. The hospital had a phone I could use if necessary.
Good luck you will be just fine!

You probably will not go daily because your intake is reduced. At least for a while. Your body will adjust give it time.
I have to take a few stool softeners+ laxative all in one, to keep things moving along. Really takes the stress out of my life.
If you are able to eat raisin bran daily that will help as well. I personally cannot, too much sugar causes too much cramping,

I did not go through insurance, I made my date in a week. In fact I am taking a good friend of mine to Mexico on Thursday and she made the decision lat night, yay for her, I digress
I had surgery on a Friday I was and you should be up and waking in a couple of hours of waking up. You should be more up than down. I flew home Monday and I was fine. On Sunday I was out shopping for a few hours for souvenirs for my kids. So your dog's will be fine being walked by you. You will probably be able to walk, elliptical etc immediately and about 4-6 weeks before any strength training. But honestly I did not work out for 10 months and the weight melted, the moment I started walling 3-7 miles 3xs a week the weight loss stopped. I stopped working out I began to lose again, I hear the same story from a lot of people. Good luck.

you could in reality, but do you really want those starches in you?? I did not.
Choose better foods. One of my favorite meals was ricotta cheese and marinara sauce! Yumm

I didn't have any special classes. I did all my research at the tips of my fingers on top of common sense.
Let's not be a victim and get your info on your computer and on this site. Its a great place to start!
Have any specific questions?

Oh heck no! I liked sodas but I was put on a medication that started with a T and one of the side effects was anything carbonated tasted like ass and to this day it still tastes like ass. It changed my brain receptors permanently.
I once had a few drinks of sprite about 6 months in and I immediately threw up. SO don;t care, don't miss it. No one should be drinking that crap.

Sounds like you have a tummy virus no the flu 9 super common mistake) The flu is in the head mostly consists of chills and fever and comes on like a ton of bricks. A gastric virus causes stomach upheaval.
Let your body do what it needs to do, Try to sleep and drink fluids as tolerated.
I get sick about 1 a month with my period, I throw up all day and by 6 or 7 everything subsides and I can drink some chicken broth and G2 to keep from getting dehydrated.
But call your doc if you are concerned.
