Sparklette

You'll be alright, I'm sure everyone cheated. for the last few days to stick to it, hopefully everything will clear.

It will go slow for a few weeks the the last few will go by in a blink and you will be asking where the time wet.

You gotta make the tickers on the desktop site

That time will go by in a breeze, I promise! Taking up swimming is a great idea! When I was waiting the last couple months before my surgery, I spent more time on here, getting info and what not. And took it day by day. It'll be here before you know it.

At the hospital the only thing I needed was chap stick and entertainment. Honestly. A pillow from home might have been nice, the stupid hospital bed made my back hurt. For home, Like SoccarMamma said, liquid, and Protein. some slip on shoes, if you intend on walking outside. Find a place where you can be comfortable, I couldn't sleep in my bed for the first couple of days, it was difficult to get in and even worse to get out. And it's true, everything does kinda fall in to place. If you have any questions feel free to ask!

It does contain sucrulose. But less than a splash for 16 oz. (I make mine in the morning and separate it in to four shakes after I mix it. ) it isnt enough to hurt or cause dumping.

I'm so sorry! That's awful! I'm sure your time will come, Just don't let it kick you down! Rny or not, we are here to support you!

Tortani, I tried to upload a picture but my phone is being stupid.

That's it! the torani. I love it!

I'm only a week out, So I'm still on liquids, I feel really left out right now, because I avoid the kitchen like the plague during mealtimes because the smell of food is difficult for me. And Dinner is our only "family time" But that should get better once I'm back on real food.

I'm not sure if it does call ulcers. The reason we aren't allowed to have it is because it will hit our system really fast, and make us super drunk off of very little, and alcohol tends to be high in sugar and can cause dumping.

I have bcbs I didn't have to have weigh ins because my pcp had a record of my weight going back five years. Along with documentation that I was on supervised diets (ie weight watchers, neutrisystem etc) for 6 consecutive months

Try around with different things to add to the shake, I found some sugar free/fatfree coffee flavoring that I have been adding to mine, it's super tasty,, or try different protein powders.

I know what you mean, I live in Texas and yesterday it was 98. I was walking and I felt super dehydrated and just wanted to chug a glass of water.

I just put on my work pants because I'm out of laundry and they are LOOSE! My first NSV. And I slept on my side last night! Today is a good day!

I was told a year. And only in very small amounts.

Have you been taking your vitamins?

Oh, and skim milk, of course! lol.

Giving up is out of the question! Try adjusting your Protein to get more in, or up your exercise to compensate. But you need to keep your head up!

So, I went shopping last night, and went down the coffee isle, for the smell. When I hit the creamer I found some flavoring syrup, with nothing in it, no calories, no sugar, no nada. It was in hazelnut, caramel, french vanilla, and another flavor that I don't remember. I got the hazelnut and this morning made a Protein shake, with my Protein powder, it's vanilla whey isolate with 60g of protein for 2 scoops, A table spoon of SF chocolate syrup, and A splash of the hazelnut flavoring, and it was AMAZING! It was super tasty and didn't have the protein aftertaste.

Always remember that! No matter what we are all worth it. That's why we are doing this right? Because we know that someone needs us, that there is something better for us, that we deserve more than what we have?

There is always Condoms. Lol

Maybe us Texas girls are lucky? Lol

I'm really wiggy about anything implanted or in there. you know? It's why I like my depo.
