    Breaking Out

    @@TXMissy yea im def keeping up my Vitamins i just think its crazy that with the amount of Water and no soda (thats when i use to get a pimple here or there) that my face has done this but then again major surgery i guess can do that with the amount of changes our bodies are going through. how far out are u? @@SMBFLORIDA HAHAHA i totally feel the same way about the never breaking out when younger! I see we had surgery around the same time..how are you doing?

    No appetite what so ever

    @@jennn0218 Yea i had my surgery in march as well and i still get that feeling but i def have to force myself to eat, im never hungry but i know i have to get at least my protein in. It is def a juggling act with the not drinking with meals, i def have to make sure im watching the clock. I am the same way with my vitamins i take those religiously and have never had a problem with those. I hope your doing well! Let me know if you have any questions

    SURGERY MAY 4!

    @alyssa102 shes really not i can vouch for her lmao, @@kaseyw0od sorry i havent texted u back this week has been hectic. Girl tell me about those food commercials ill be at the gym at 5 am and of course 50 million come on tv im like really?!
  11. I had to wait 4 HOURS! I was freaking out, they finally gave me cotton swabs that are suppose to moisten your mouth which barely helped I was so relieved once I was able to drink water (sip) Just giving you my experience from the sound of it its not very common. GOOD LUCK
  12. Has anyone else have/had experienced breaking out? I never had acne like this before the surgery so I'm curious if anyone else went through this or is going through this. I'm almost 2 months out to give you a time frame... Thanks for anyone's input

    SURGERY MAY 4!

    Yea if it is bad then i will most likely do the plastic surgery option i know im going to have to do something for my boobs already lol... as far as an anti acid, not im not required to take one do you have a history with heartburn? maybe thats why i take a multi Vitamin, b12, b1, Calcium citrate, Vitamin D, Iron and vit c its crazy to think about how many pills i take a day now

    SURGERY MAY 4!

    Thank you & that's totally fine as long as i can stalk yours lmao! I was in the hospital for one night, didn't need anything longer than that. I was literally doing laps in the hallway (walking that is) you want to walk as much as possible to alleviate the major gas pains you'll have (from them pumping you with air) I was out of work for two weeks, if i didn't have the issue with constipation i think i would've been fine to come back after the first week but id suggest if you could take the time off take it just because you will be very tired and still healing. Im not sure which line of work your in and if its a physical job or not but me i sit at a desk and get up and down throughout the day to file charts. I couldve taken off a month but i knew that we didnt have anyone in our office that was going to do all my work and the longer i was out the more it piled up lol. Protein shakes....i went with the Premier Protein for a while but i soon became tired of those esp vanilla, you may be different but they were delicious to start off with ( i liked the chocolate one more, it reminds me of chocolate milk) I have since bought the big container of Syntrax nectar fuzzy naval ( fuzzy naval is the flavor) its ok, not too bad its tolerable but i know for the nectar brand you can go on there website and try sample packs ( you do have to pay for them) but that way you dont buy something and not like it. The premier Proteins can come in packs of 4 pre made at like walmart and then they have bulk at like sams club or costco (not sure if you guys have these places where you live but you guys should have something similar) My diet now...Im pretty much back on everything but everything is very minimal. I can make a whole can of tuna (with light tuna of course) and eat on it for days. I have to stay away from raw vegetables right now just because they can get stuck. and i have to make sure that if i do a meat that i chew it super well otherwise that can also get stuck. liquid/puree stage... i didnt really puree anything except for Beans, i lived on beans for awhile along with all my liquid stuff: broth, sugar free Jello, sugar free pudding, yogurt, cream of wheat or cream of rice. YOU WILL GET TIRED OF ALL OF THIS STUFF, but once you start having solid foods again my doc told me to cut all of that stuff out completely except i could still enjoy some yogurt (high in protein) As far as the loose skin thing, were young still so our skin is more elastic compared to if we were to do this down the road so m hoping that with continued exercise that it wont be as bad but im sure its somewhat inevitable just because of the amount of weight were dropping in the period were dropping it. Have you bought all of your Vitamins yet? Do you have any issue with taking pills now? And its no problem about how many questions you ask im just glad i can share some stuff with you to make it hopefully an easier transition. http://www.premierprotein.com/ http://www.vitacost.com/syntrax-nectar-whey-protein-isolate-powder?csrc=GPF-PA-Sports%20%26%20Fitness-893912123536&ci_gpa=pla&ci_kw=&ci_src=17588969&ci_sku=893912123536&gclid=CKmOu-OwisUCFVGUfgod0IoAKg ive put links to the proteins, hopefully they work
