Just don't do it.....ever.....

Yes it will pass! I was there a long time ago as well! So bad i about had some sort of breakdown. But you still sound upbeat! That's great!

that's awesome! you're tiny! you look terrific!!!

it is completely possible! i'm well over a year out and noone knows!!! i highly suggest it

if they aren't nice to you at your worst....they don't deserve you at your best....

over a year out, still hiccup... @Miss Mac i thought the sneezes were just me!!!! good to know!!!

DON'T STRESS, AND DON'T ALLOW WHAT YOU'RE EATING/NOT EATING TO BECOME UP FOR DISCUSSION...

SO GLAD TO HEAR THE REPLIES. I DRINK MORE THAN MY REQUIRED AMOUNT. IT'S NOT THAT I DON'T GO ENOUGH, IT'S JUST THAT I EXITS SLOWER AND WEAKER THAN BEFORE. THE NEW LACK OF STRESS ON THE BLADDER MAKES SENSE!

I TOO HAVE LOST MOST OF MY CUTE BUBBLY CHEEKS, I HAVE THOSE SMILE LINES TOO. I WAS VERY AFRAID OF LOOKING OLDER BUT I THINK ALL IN ALL I LOOK YOUNGER. I KINDA LIKE THE SMILE LINES - I KNOW THAT'S WEIRD....THE PART I WORRY ABOUT MOSTLY IS MY FUNNY LOOKING NECK. HOPEFULLY THAT WILL SHRINK UP MORE ON IT'S OWN. I HAVEN'T DONE ANY CREAMS OR PEELS BUT I DO NEED TO BE PUTTING SOMETHING ON MY NECK TO HELP. I DON'T KNOW WHAT IN THE WORLD TO USE.

STRANGE QUESTION BUT THAT'S WHAT WE'RE HERE FOR RIGHT!!! I AM 11 MONTHS OUT AND IT SEEMS SINCE SURGERY I HAVE A DECREASE IN MY URINE FLOW, THE SPEED/VOLUME AT WHICH IT EXITS. I'M JUST WONDERING IF ANYONE ELSE HAS EXPERIENCED THIS.

JUST THROWING THIS OUT THERE FOR THE NEW PEOPLE. I AM 11 MOS OUT TODAY AND I'VE ONLY HAD THE SLIMES ABOUT 3 TIMES. FROM EATING SOMETHING TOO TOUGH OR DRY OR EATING A BITE TOO MUCH, ANYWAY I DID IT TODAY WHICH WOULD BE THE THIRD TIME. I WAS EATING OUT WITH FRIENDS AND TALKING AND ATE TOO MUCH NOT THINKING. ANYWAY I POPPED A PC OF GUM, THAT MADE ME SWALLOW SALIVA WHICH GAVE ME THE HORRIBLE FULL FEELING IN MY CHEST AND MADE ME SLIME. SO AS SOON AS I COULD GET AWAY I STARTED SPITTING THE EXTRA SALIVA OUT. I KNOW THIS IS GROSS BUT IF THIS HAPPENS IT SURE CAN BRING YOU RELIEF FASTER...THE MORE OF THAT SALIVA YOU SWALLOW THE WORSE YOUR PAIN AND MISERY IS GOING TO BE. JUST WISH SOMEONE HAD TOLD ME THIS CUZ I THOUGHT I WAS GOING TO DIE!!!

I DIDN'T DRINK COFFEE FOR MANY MONTHS. BUT EVERYONE IS DIFFERENT. I THINK IF I WERE DRINKING IT EARLY POST OP I WOULD ADD TO MY DAILY WATER INTAKE.

@thenewandbestme YOU LOOK ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC!

MINE DID, TONS OF IT, AND I FOLLOWED ALL RULES & TOOK BIOTIN...STILL THIN BUT LOOKS MUCH BETTER 11 MOS OUT

I THINK MANY OF US WENT THRU THAT AT SOME POINT, BUT IT WILL GET BETTER LIKE MOST OF THE NEGATIVES THAT COME ALONG WITH THIS JOURNEY....
