  2. It's been six weeks for me and I've felt hunger/empty feeling early on. I've tried just drinking water, but the empty feeling is still there. Shakes or an actual bite of something takes the feeling away. It really bums me out that I'm one of the few that feels hungry. Just saying.

  4. I love popcorn, so I put some in my mouth and spit it back out. Gross I know... taste sooo good though.
  5. Me, I'm dealing with it now.
  6. I have a lump above my belly button incision. It's very hard. I'm 5 weeks out from surgery and my surgeon opened it up and drained it. Very painful! It's still draining and I hope it starts healing soon and doesn't get worse. He had me on antibiotics last week, so I guess I don't need anymore. Keep a eye on it. I noticed my lump a few weeks after surgery and it wasn't until 4 weeks out it started to turn red and hurt.

  10. That would be extremely hard to do. I am supposed to do a protein shake to replace two meals and a low carb dinner two weeks prior. Clear liquids two days prior. I get massive headaches too when I don't eat. Then watch out, because I'm not going to be nice.
  11. Hi,Jenny. Dwstarr1@gmail.com. is my email. I'd love to join the sight.
  12. I'm hoping end of October or November. Insurance requirements of 6 month diet. Almost done with the 5th month. I just haven't really lost much weight and hope I get approved. Gained one pound at month three. BCBS is my insurance. Fingers crossed. I wouldn't mind joining the FB Fall sleevers 2015. Good luck to everyone.
  13. Sad as it may be....yes! Omg, I say all the time, I'm looking forward to my arms growing. People look at me odd. But, it's true. Losing weight=wiping with ease.
  14. Has anyone ever been denied for losing a small amount of weight during the six month supervised diet? I am less now then when I started, but not much. I have BCBS out of Rochester Ny. One month I gained one pound. ????
