  2. @@auntiemel Eeek! I really don't think there is anything you can do If you find something that works let us know! I Think most people end up cutting their hair short from what I've read. Sorry your having to deal with that!
  3. @@cube68 Ps drink it at night and your almost sure to go in the am!
  4. @@cube68 Drink some "smooth move" tea!!! You can get almost everywhere, it's natural and it really works! It will be your new best friend!
  5. @ I take a large does, my hair is growing, I've yet to lose any hair and my labs are PERFECT! So I guess it depends on your body.
  6. @@amyecpa That's really quick and I don't know how they can pull that off unless your a self pay patient.
  7. @@Mega_100 It's just like any other "weight loss process" in a way. I can be time consuming, you will have a recovery period but other than that if you don't have any complications ect..it's just living. You just eat a little different and less but overall I don't feel like my life is dramatically different my Food consumption just is and I'm more mindful. I had a 4 yr old at the time and it wasn't a problem. In fact it will benefit your child way more in the long run! It's worth losing a couple weeks where you may not be able to carry them around ect....
  8. @ Depends on your insurance company but yes they can defiantly deny you if you go under the BMI that's qualifies you. I've seen it done plenty of times.

  14. @@HumanMerelyBeing I've read on here people say 1 year after you stop losing weight to 18 months after.
  15. @@mercy96 I've said this 100 times water in the worst dang thing to get down! It must be the thin consistency of it?!
  16. @@dad77 you're just going through the freak out motions that a lot of us go through, you will have your surgery and figure things out along the way. It's like getting married only this one is REALLY permanent!
  17. @@amazon Maybe need plastics if it's bad and not going away with exercise.
  18. @@kabertoson If your losing 3 lbs a day then your doing quit well so no advice for that. As far as hunger it should subside once you get on food with some consistency. Hang in there!
  19. @@Vikingsfan8178 I love my sleeve!! I guess I looked at it as "what would be the ramifications if I didn't " I would have just continued to get bigger, have Health issues and probably die a earlier death. I don't think about the percentage They took out I look at my results and how much better I feel. I didn't need all that stomach, it was Only giving me more room to gain more weight. I actually wanted a picture of the ugly sake that caused me so much Grief by never feeling full! I love my "rebirth". My old stomach was big and large like me, my new stomach is thin and long like I plan on being! Good luck on making your decision!
