Thank you! I will call today.

The injections were on my forehead, scalp, neck and back of my head.

It was done by my Neurologist. My head feels like a million pound bowling ball. My neck and shoulder hurt pretty bad and it's been 10 day.

I just had my first round of Botox a week ago and am very sore on the left side of my shoulder and upper back. Is this normal? How long does it last?

It was pretty exciting. It was a lady I didn't even know. She wished me a Happy Mother's Day IF I had kids. I told her I had 5 and she said. "How do you stay so skinny". Aaaah!! If she only knew!! Lol

This lady called me SKINNY!! I hugged her. She thought I was NUTS!!

Just keep the lowest one.

I'm 4 months out and vomited A LOT the first month up to 6 weeks. A lot of it was learning how much I could eat and what things I couldn't tolerate. It DOES get better.

Thanks! I have 5 children So the pic is hiding the stretch marks and the pants are covering my lower ab pouch. As far as a diet, I'm not trying to recruit any lectures but I pretty much eat what I want in small portions. Tonight for dinner, for example, I had 1 small thin crust piece of pizza. My sleeve does a really great job. I do drink LOTS of water. I just concentrate on portions and have gotten pretty good at determining how much I can eat.

Thank you!! I'm so blessed!! I've had no complications and to be honest I've only worked out once. I know it's not ideal but I guess we're all different. It's been a long time since I've liked what I see in the mirror. If I can do this ANYONE can.

my starting weight was 246 and I'm 4' 11" tall.

Don't mind the messy teenagers room!! UGH

71 lbs down!!

Can I just share how happy I am!!?? I'm 4 months out, 71 lbs down and 29 to goal. My husband and I could barely keep our hands off eachother before and now....OH MY GOODNESS! (Even after all these years and 5 kids) I've always been a positive happy person but now I'm that way on the inside AND outside. I feel so incredibly blessed. Thank you, Dr Michelson and NWWL for giving me back my youth and energy and body. Like I've heard hundreds of times......I only wish I would have done it sooner.

I think you need more water.

I'm 4 months out and don't get hungry either. I also rarely have cravings. I do miss indulging a big but hate the way it makes me feel so it stops me from even considering it. I love my sleeve.

CLOTHES AND SHOES!!

I took some laxatives at 8 weeks because I was pretty "stopped up" and it was AWFUL!!!!!!!! Horribly painful and I even ended up vomiting. NEVER again

Buying some super cute Victoria Secret yoga pants and feeling pretty stink'n cute In them

I am 4 months out and ice cream/frozen yogurt is one of the few things I can not tolerate. It makes me feel awful!!!!

I have Horrible migraines including vision lose and vomiting. I am 4 months out and they seem to have gotten worse. Neurologist thinks its because of the low calories but I still wouldn't change a thing. I have to go to my PCP and get shot when I can't control the migraines but on 5/2 I'm having my first Botox injections and PRAYING it makes a difference. The way I see it, I had the migraines before and at least I'm happy and healthier.....I would do it again an again and again even with the increased migraines.

I guess I'm the "bad girl" of the bunch. I do drink coffee every day. I used to drink a venti everyday and now I drink a tall. It's all I have room for but I do enjoy every sip. I love my coffee and I've done very well. Sleeved on 12/13 at 246 and I'm at 185.1 this morning.

Anytime I eat bread I feel like I swallowed a brick so I pretty much stay away from it. It's weird how our tastes change because that was one thing I thought I could never live without and really I could care less about it. Did I mention how much I adore my sleeve!!!!!

Congrats!! You look GOEGEOUS

I'm squishy too but I admit I've not worked out a bit. My starting weight was 246 and this morning I was 183. (Yes, I'm a spaz and weigh daily) I really should work out but I really don't want to. Just being honest. I work 10 hours a day and I'm a Mommy of 5 and wife and I also have a few other excuses I can pull out of the air. Lol. I'm sure it would make a difference.
