If you go to http://bravehearts.com/?v=1369870237 and register (it's simple) you can vote I believe. Someone told me that's the way they did and they didn't have a facebook.

If you're on your phone it takes you to that bravehearts. It's really stupid how it does it. But if you click on the part that says VIEW GALLERY & VOTE then click MOST VIEWED we are number 3 right now! Two girls with mustaches. That's the easiet way to find it on your phone. Thank you guys for voting! I understand about not wanting the company to have your info. Thanks for wanting to vote. <3

On May 31, 2012 my father passed away from complications due to weight. He was prisoner in his body. He told me the last time I saw him to lose the weight while I was young. Come September I get started on the insurance stuff. I get the 3 months in and all that and in December I had my surgery done. Now? I'm 310 pounds down from the 444. I am struggling a bit.. I am losing my hair. But I am trying hard to keep on track! My momma nominated me for a contest for being "brave" and doing this. If you want to vote daily until June 5th (then there's another round after the top 10 is picked) http://tinyurl.com/q2omlq7 I would be forever thankful. I want to inspire young people to lose the weight while they can. Seeing my dad pass away that day was the hardest thing ever. I don't want other people to go through that same thing! I also really adore Taylor Swift to the max. She has helped get me through some of this.

Thanks guys! I'm glad to know I'm not alone in this. The pain is lessening slightly but still there and gets bad until I use a heating pad or pain medicine. I'm trying not to take the pain meds as much now. Leaking is also kinda normal.. but depends on the color. Is it bloody/pusy? I would def call your surgeon and make sure. I'm lucky in mine hasn't really been leaking.

First day home I barely got anything down. Seriously took all I had to get half a Protein shake and some broth,, and popsicle. Today is going a tad better. Gonna try to move to phase 2 next week. Looking forward to the Soup the most I think. I think getting all the protein down is gonna be the death of me!

I need to start taking mine. My surgery was on Tuesday, The nutritionist I talked to before the surgery recommended CHEW-ABLE multi Vitamins and chewable Calcium. You will have to really chew them. I bought them from sams club in big jars cause they come with so much more for the price.

I had my surgery Tuesday and came home Thursday afternoon.. I've been in pain since I got home. Mainly on my left side. When I pull myself into a sitting position, get up, or sit down. My left side burns and has a stinging pain. Is this normal? I usually have to take the pain medication they gave me every 4-6 hours on the dot because of this pain alone. I get my drain removed Monday and will be asking her about this. I was just wondering if it's normal. Or if anyone else had it. I think the hardest part of things has been the pain. I questioned myself a day after surgery, wondering if this was the smartest decision. I also have tons of gas and grumbling. And really loose stool, diarrhea, and grumbling before I actually let loose. (Sorry if that's TMI.) I hope all these start to go away. So tired of feeling like this already.
