  1. I do rum/vodka -water- and crystal light/Dasani/any water flavor drops! Delicious and less calories!! ???? Oh and I was told 6-8 weeks out was fine in moderate consumption!
  2. Chips!! chips are my downfall...even at 6 months out! Down almost 80 lbs and I can take a half a bag of spicy pig skins like I did before my surgery!!
  3. Mine started last month at 4 mts out. I'm going crazy...when will it end?! Mine comes out in clumps, especially when I wash and blow dry and when I run my hand they my hair! I've also noticed my eyebrows are going away, so much that I have to pencil them in! I have very thick hair (thank goodness), so only me and my hairdresser see it! Geez, I hope it ends soon!! It's frightening!!
  4. Everyone is looking so amazing!!
  5. Thank you!! A little bit, walking on the treadmill and a little bit of resistance band work.

  18. Mine happened about 2 1/2 weeks out. Then I started getting these stabbing pains in that area every time I bent over or twisted wrong, but the sharp pains went away in about 3 days.
  19. Almost sounds like kidney stones. I had the same exact issues when I had them! Felt like labor pains but times 100!! And pain went from back to front.
  20. My nut told me 4-6 weeks also.
