    New Me Twentyfourteen got a reaction from OCSlim in Has anyone had the Single Incision technique done in Mexico?   
    I had mine done on the 11th by Dr Yu from TLC specifically because I don't want scars. Everything worked out!

    I'm so sorry to hear about this. I have to admit that I live in mortal fear of this happening. So much so that in recent years I've turned down every thought or idea of vacation plans that involve flying. I tell everyone it's because of claustrophobia, which I do suffer from, but in reality, it's because I'm afraid of not being able to buckle my seat belt or being singled out to purchase a second seat as well.
    Not too long ago I was given tickets to see the play Wicked. Unfortunately I could hardly enjoy the show because I was in so much physical pain from the sides of the seat digging into my hips. I've stopped going to similar events that would put me in the same awkward position ever since.
    It's part of the reason that I made the decision to seek out surgery. I'm tired of putting my life on hold because of my weight. I want to truly live again! I'm still in the beginning pre-op stages, but I'm going to get there. We're all going to get there! And so will you. But until then just try and keep you're eye on the prize. You have an amazing future waiting for you just around the bend.
    Once I lose my weight I'm going to fly like a bird. And I honesty hope I'm sitting in the airport some day waiting for a flight, and I happen to see an obese lady or gentleman being put through the public ridicule of being made to buy a second seat. Because I'll march right up to that ticket counter and say: "That's not necessary. This fine person is more than welcome to sit next to me."

    How about ordering Soup. I can get much more soup in than anything else. And that's a real meal.

    New Me Twentyfourteen got a reaction from SBovee in Help please, I'm afraid this is from a leak...   
    I'm conservative. I'd go to the er to make sure nothing is wrong. They can give u a leak test and incision (go to er that has bariatric practice)
    I had a scare (everything was fine) but was happy to rule out anything major

    A pharmacist recommended Source of Life liquid Gold. I love the taste (fruity), and one bottle lasted about 3 months. I bought it on Amazon.com. I added some Iron pills later, and I take B-12 shots.

    I would call ur doc and get checked out. Very unlikely but could be incisional hernia. Better to contact doctor early. It's probably nothing but better to b safe then sorry ????
