TinyTink

I can't imagine him saying anything the first time you are intimate. Assuming he is also just looking for a lover right now, his focus isn't going to be on any scars. Just my 2 cents.

Got protein

I was just reading somewhere that the hair fallout that happens is due to the lack of Protein intake in the two weeks following surgery. If you can't get your protein in then, nothing will stop it. This makes sense to me based on the cycle of follicle growth.

#1 Leave 80% of your stomach, Gain 100% of your life. #2 Instead of the old "I left my heart (picture of a heart) in San Francisco", "I left my stomach (picture of a stomach) in Tijuana" and #3 "BariatricPal - we wear our hearts on our SLEEVES". I like the last one best!

You are stunning! Great job.

That's excellent. Congrats!

If you can tolerate it, drink something as hot as you can. It usually will stimulate and get things moving again.

Whoo hoo!!

It's at my local Festival Foods for $4.99. Not sure how many ounces though.

Great suggestions!

Is anyone using extracts instead of Torani to mix up their shakes? I'm wondering if a few drop of almond added to chocolate would be good. Or better yet, root beer extract added to vanilla with a little ice and whipped up in the blender.

Congratulations. Hope you feel much better soon.

Great story. I'm glad it all worked out for you, and you're almost to goal too!

I'm hoping for a great outcome for you!

I'm 47 too and while my experience isn't identical to yours, I've had many similarities. I just have one thing to say: you are too young to spend the rest of your life without the kind of loving relationship you need to be happy. You deserve it!

Wow! Great job!

That rate is still within normal limits. Any fever? Dizziness? Drinking enough?

Terrific job!

I hadn't heard of the kits until you mentioned them. I'm preop and have been sampling and I do like the Premier Protein and

Awesome to have a confidante like that.

I bet your view was beautiful. Nice job.

I would only follow the plan your surgeon or NUT gives you. And I wouldn't buy lots ahead of time because your tastes and tolerance may change.

I don't know if this is a possibility for you, but I borrowed from my 403b retirement savings. Automatic approval.

Oh my! Ummmm.......oh my!!

You mean you don't always dance naked?!?
