  1. And you can eat that while on the two week diet before surgery ? I just had. Handful of almonds and im going to have another shake, yuckky. But that sf gum sounds like a good idea ! Usually when i get hungry thats what i do is chew gum to take some of the hunger pains away
  2. Hello everyone... Well i started my diet today and ive had my first shake (which tastes nasty) and im soooo hungry ????does anyone have any suggestions like can i snack on things to beat the hunger ? Or any advice at all ? My surgery date is july 30th 2013

  5. Hi everybody ! I just bought my protein shake powder in cookies and cream and im planning on buying vanilla... So far the cookies and cream does not taste good at all...does anyone have any suggestions on mixing up different things or an actual good tasting protein powder ? I start my diet on the 16th and my surgery is on the 30th
  6. Hi everyone ! Im new to this forum so i still have to get my endoscopy done and then my doc will set up a surgery date and im trying to get as much info as i can regarding the dreaded sagging skin :/ im 24 and everyone keeps telling me dont worry the skin will go back bc im so young..but i have alot of stretch marks so i dont believe it will be that easy, i can only wish ! But my question is what can i do after surgery so i can prevent it as much as possible ? I went to this one place and they sell post-op full body shapers ( faja salome ), this includes the arms (up to the elbow) and up to the knee...and it has a cut out around the boobs section...it also supposedly lifts your breasts and buttocks...only problem is that its costs 90 dollars !! and im dyinggg to buy it ! But what holds me back is that its not adjustable so as soon i lose the weight the girdle will be huge on me...and it will be a waste of money :/ so my question is, does anybody know of something similiar to this but that is wayyy cheaper...or something that is adjustable ? Or do you think i should buy this and see if i can sew it on the sewing machine to fit to my size ? ( lol i really dont want my money going to waste ) any ideas would be greatly apreciated ! I definetly want to avoid the sagging skin !also any creams that will help with this ?...... And not only that, i dont have insurance so i dont want to pay extra for skin removal. Thank you so much !
