  1. Wow very nice, my poor husband was on a very unconfertable recliner, my poor guy and I had 2 stay 2 nights due to a fever, congrats on your lose so far and I love your up beat spirt
  2. really thought you had to take it on an empty stomach?
  3. 4-6 weeks theres no way I could go that long w/out driving only took 2 weeks off of work. my dr said week I think, but I didnt take any of the pain meds and after like 3-4 days I think I was fine to drive even though my husband wouldnt let me, hahahaha
  4. wooohooo congrats dont be scared it will be all good,
  5. I dont know why I just know alot of people have this issue spec after surgery
  6. yes thats the way I was plus w/the sleeve the malabsorbtion (how ever you spell that) is not there, I truley think the sleeve is the best one out there
  7. That makes sense, I was just wondering, I think there are more guys that have it done then we know, I think its just most of them dont really talk about it not as vocal as us woman are, lol and just to confrim what you said, you can not undo the sleeve, well good luck on what ever you decide to do, this forum is great and everyone is always here to help if they can
  8. yes as long as your not having to take pain meds, I didnt need my pain meds outside of the hospital stay, you just really will have to see how your body handles everything
  9. I have no clue how to tell you stats, but why do you want to know that? Do you want the surgery? If so do it only cause its what you want to do, its a complete life style change and its not easy you have to change your old bad habits, and mind set.
  10. Hello and welcome, my recovery was great had no issues once I was out of the hospital, I had to stay 2 night due to a fever, but other then that its been great, best thing I have ever done for my self only wish I had done it sooner
  11. I think it tends to be more woman cus we like to talk more, lol and woman have a harder time losing in general then men, men for the most part just start working out and they can drop 20lbs but for woman we hold fat more cus our bodys need some fat for babys so when we start trying to lose the body say hell no, lol so it takes alot more time and work for us just to drop 5lbs, as far as your questions about getting enough in for your muscle think thats something you need to talk to your dr about
  12. from what I could find 11grams of protien
  13. Wow the only thing I had to do was talk to the person didnt have to take any test
  14. you can always get rid of loose skin, I am hoping I dont have a lot but I am going to start saving to have a tummy tuck an a boob lift, lol,
  15. welcome and congrats on getting your date,
  16. I took the full 2 weeks and it was sick time
  17. lol, yeah I was ready way before but my Dr didnt say that they said 6 weeks, me and my husband were both like uggggg really, and believe me the moment that 6 weeks was up it was on, hahahaha
  18. lol we waiting the 6 weeks it did suck, but thats what we were told so thats what we did, lol
  19. I think its so if you want to keep track of there progress and beable to keep in touch w/them, thats my thoughts on it, but not 100% sure
  20. you are just fine your not going to go your whole life w/out that stuff, as long as your not doing it on a regular bases enjoy, you did sugar free so thats good, just limit how often and dont get down on your self when you do have it we are human and you can not be 100% on the ball 100% of the time,
