yes .me !!! lol !!! i had my surgery on the 8th of dec . and i notice my face has realllly thinned out and i have devoloped wrinkle lines on my neck!!!the skin on my neck feels thin and funny and i am soooooooo worried im gonna have a turkey neck ......dont laugh!!!!.....lol!!! :D

my nutritionalist says our bodies will only absorb 25 grams of protein MAX .so , using more than 25 grams at one time is a waste of money .

no ........i dont have to eat fast food !!! But i dont have an office job.......i do home health and drive in my car 8-10 hrs every day.its not too convenient for me to heat something up in a microwave most of the time and may desire the taste of something hot or warm every once in awhile besides feeling that im grazing all day.

yeeeee haw !!!! good to know !!!!

my bf says Arbys has a really good turkey wrap!

well put babysteppin !!!lol !!! that is EXACTLY what i meant !!! just a post for good healthy choices in a pinch!!!

candice .......up above in the rt hand corner next to your user name is an arrow click on that and you have options............my question is ....how do u add the additional stuff ???....otr , i see u dont have any extra stuff either !!! like ...surgery date ,wt lost .....under your ticker . i want that additional stuff on mine but cant figure out how !

ok .....i am soooo computer illiterate !! how in the world do i add on to my ticker ?? i mean , i created the time line , but how do i add like my pre surg weight and wt lost per month and so on ..........do i manually add that in the copy and paste section ? i know i sound like a dummy , but dont know til u ask !!!!

wow!this stuff must have gold in it!it is EXPENSIVE! i do not think i would ever pay that much for a drink !!!Is that in US dollars ????!!!!!!!!!!

i had the same exact pain !!!I just wanted to get a hammer and pound away at my shoulder !!! but yes , its gas.........try gas x strips ! works wonders !!!!!!!!mine went away at about the 2 week mark ! i had my sleeve dec 8 . it'll get better !

awesome !!!!! thank u !!! i had my surgery on dec.8 ....this is so helpful to know !!!!

okay ........question !!!!so , what is the true amount of weight lost ??? is it when u were at your heaviest , or the weight when u first started this journey and following a dr ,.........or is it your pre op , like the day before surgery ??? my heaviest wt was a yr ago this time ..251 ..then when i started seeing a dr in april i was244 . the day before surgery i was 228 and now i am at 208 .so .....how much can i tell ppl truthfully i lost ????? i'm confused !my surgery was december 8 ,by the way !!! .....thanks !!!

do acid reducers help with the hunger pains?? i have acid reflux and have a script for prilosic but dont take em like i should !

my surgery was dec 8 and like u , i feel so hungry for a salty crunchy snack of some kind. i thought our hunger hormone was taken away ? lol

what digestive enzymes are u takin ??i know , this sux ..its like everything i eat just goes thru me .....**** i should really be losingthe weight , but im at a stall now i heard papaya enzyme is good for aid in digestion ......also where did u get yours ?

ok ...how does a person know if they have a leak....??? i had my surgery on dec. 8 and at my follow up, i was surprised i did not have a scan of some sort to see what my insides look like! do they do that at some point ???also , i hear its possible to stretch your pouch out .....at how soon could that possibly happen ???just some curious questions !!!!
