I made it to onederland this morning . SW: 248 surgery: 11/13 cw: 199.0 I don't think I have ever been so excited to see a number on the scale!

They have it at a bunch of the yogurt shops and its definitely not sugar free

I was a dr pepper junkie. And I have gone without for 2 months and 2 weeks exactly. Lord help me. However my current gotta have is peanut butter frozen yogurt?! I want some so bad! I think I'm going to work it in one day this week.

I'm still pasty and I'm Spanish .

My tiny little BFF does the 10 minute trainers- she turns 30 this weekend, had a baby 9 months ago- and her body looks amazing! However, it's not an easy work out. It's 10 minutes of hardcore sweating and burpies and mountain climbers.

Thanks OTR! It was my goal to be there by my birthday and I missed it by 3 days, but I will take it! Tsymle- My salmon burgers come from trader joes or costco- I throw some seasoning on it like teriyaki sauce (5carbs) or lemon pepper and bake it or sautee it in a pan. It's nothing fancy . Chicken Parmesan pops from tj's are awesome, too. Crab stuffed flounder, shrimp cocktail. There's so much easy no muss no fuss stuff! I freaking LOVE to cook (I bake for a living). So- if you want any ideas- let me know!!! I'm happy to share!

hehe.. get it girl! I burned quite a few this weekend! We were out of town with no kids. Yep.. Calories were burned and I hit Onederland this morning!

I hiccup- that's my I'm full sign.

Most days.. let me think... I will have a boiled egg and a piece of turkey sausage for breakfast, lunch I will have 1/2 a salmon burger or lunch meat and cheese rolled up. Dinner is generally whatever I make for the family and I will eat the protein part- last night I had 1.5oz. of sloppy joe and some baked beans. I eat a lot of tex mex. So I will have 1 taco, or fajitas etc.

I was sleeved 11/13- so 10ish weeks ago? Maybe 11? LOL... 2 months ago.

Hi all!!! I'm 4'11. I started at 248 and this morning I am at 199. I'm so happy with my sleeve. I am thrilled with my results and I know that I could not have done this without my tool!

I have it, but I have not started it yet! I know it looks killer.

woo hoo!!!! Best feeling ever is breaking through a stall!

Stalls happen- and they SUCK. Big time. I lost 20lbs at my one week check up (11/20). I then stayed at the same weight almost until Christmas- that's 5 weeks. I was mad at myself and my sleeve. That being said- I have to stay around 600 calories- Carbs don't seem to kill me, however I don't have much room for them- I drink a small glass of fruit juice a day. I have lost 29lbs since I started tracking everything and staying right at my 600 calories. I'm at a total loss in 10 weeks of 49lbs. I will take it. You just need to figure out what works for you and your body. My body HATES me if I go too low carb- hypoglycemia rears its ugly head).

I loved jemima jones! I'm excited to see what other people say for their recommendations!

I was told any liquid cold meds are fine. Just check with your doctor if they are anti NSAID. Tylenol cold and flu multi symptom made me feel better.

There are a bunch if YouTube reviews on the loreal sublime bronze- the results look amazing! Always use a mitt! No need for orange palms.

His teeth look AMAZING!! My genetics are screwed teeth wise (mine are terrible) if and when it comes time for me to do it- I would so go to MX. He had them done 3 years ago and has had zero problems. I will see if I can find out who he used!

I bought a bunch of stuff at tj Maxx and marshall's. It was all less than $10 each. Looks great and fits great. I'm a big under armour fan, too

Hope everything is ok! I'm so so very sorry you are going through this. My best friend had the same thing happen a few months ago. It's a terrible experience!

I haven't tanned in a bed in years, however- I tanned after having my gallbladder out for probably 6ish months starting at 1 month post op. My scars are so faded and minuscule I had a hard time finding one to show a friend who was going to be having the surgery. I think it's yet another your mileage may vary. But- there are some awesome YouTube videos about self tanning. I'm really tempted to try it.

Dillard's and Nordstrom sell wacoal sports bras. I am a 38G and I'm comfortable enough to run and do aerobics in it.

Shorties Unite! You look awesome!!!

I will be trying for baby 3 next summer. I planned this specifically because I knew the timing we are planning. I will be 18 months post-op and my doctor has said that's perfect. I say lose the weight! Being pregnant is do much easier when you aren't lugging around all the extra. I gained 50lbs between kids 1 and 2.
