Hmm, do you think my cellulite will magically disappear with the weight? I'd love to wear a bikini, too! LOL

just because you know you shouldn't eat the brownies doesn't mean you don't crave them. I think that's what she is struggling with.

I always made chili with ground beef cause my husband loves it, but I didn't care for it. Yesterday I made it with turkey and it was really good! Who knew! LOL

Great! I'll try it soon. :-)

Are you talking 1 or 2 lbs or 10? I bounced up and down by 2 lbs for several days. But if you've gained a lot, call your doctor.

Sounds like you'll do great. I had a lot of anxiety before my surgery, but the night before and morning of a calm came over me. And everything came out just fine. It will for you, too!

Good luck you guys. The first 2 weeks are the hardest. If you have any concerns, just ask!

You look fantastic! It's giving me hope!

My intestines have been more sensitive since surgery, I have frequent intestinal cramping, sometimes with diarrhea, but not always. Maybe your cramps are a combo of uterus and intestine?

Look for my post titled Good info / Good articles. It has tips for reducing belly fat. Good luck!

WOW! Thanks so much for info. This new lifestyle is hard enough without sabotage from an unscrupulous company trying to make a quick buck off us!

It's hard to train your brain to go go from eating a full plate to only 1/4 cup. I seem to instantly from not quite satisfied to uncomfortably full, and I'm not eating fast. If you figure it out, let me know! I was sleeved on 12/5 and still struggle. There's nothing easy about life after surgery!

Different grocery stores carry different types, but I find it in the veggie section near the bean sprouts. If you have an Asian market you might have better luck.

5 1/2 wks out and still tired. To be expected with drop in calories.

Thatcs awesome! The eating/drinking will get easier. Be patient.

Don't pay attention to what everyone else is losing. It'll drive you nuts. We have our own journey to travel on. And BTW, I was sleeved 12/5 and have only lost 20. But I'm ok with that. I figure averaging 2-3 lbs a week is very healthy!

Let me know how they are. I haven't tried them yet.
