    Qwalla got a reaction from kimini in <--- I'm with stupid   
    I try to take Jerky with me and a Water bottle when getting in the car. Always have Fluid and Jerky is a good condensed way to get some Protein in. I learned the hard way. I dont get hungry anymore just feel horribly sick. We have to learn the new signs our tummy is giving us.

    Yes, three years ago. My husband has been overweight his entire life. Went to WLS fifteen plus years. Nothing felt safe or right. Went with him to the sleeve seminar, and when I realized I qualified with asthma, HBP, diabetes, I made the decision I was going to do this. I led my husband to the fire, going first, and he will say it is the best thing that ever happened to him. He is 100 lbs lighter and we are boating again, swimming, kayaking, traveling, and walking the beaches of Florida. We are now 69-70 years old and in a HAPPY state of mind! Best wishes! We eat out a lot, and never blink as we share a small meal or salad.

    Did not get any response. Currently using the vitamin patches. So far they seem to be working. Time will tell I guess.

    My nut. Recommended Vitamin stick packs. They are flavored powder you mix with 8 oz. Water in the am and again in the evening. She said it is a good way to get your Vitamins and liquid in. Haven't ordered them yet. Trying to find someone who has tried them. Dont like chewable bariatric vitamins..ordered the patch but broke out in a horrible rash so we will see. Very frustrating!!!

    My doctor said if you are one of the unlucky ones it doesn't matter what you do. It just has to run its course and it will grow back. I so want to be one of the lucky ones!!!

    I'm 22 months out and starting weight was 220 if I remember right. I am 5'4 1/2 so my weight was slow coming off. In fact I'm just now down to 158 and pretty happy about that. I can wear a size 8 skinny jeans from Old Navy, but lately in my legs they are disappearing! My skinny jeans are kinda bagging...but I can't go down anymore because my floppy belly.
    I really need a Tummy Tuck and butt lift, at 59 I think I can pass on that. My husband loves me any way I am!

    I am about 3 weeks after the sleeve. Total since surgery around 10 pounds. They said it takes awhile to see drops. Clothes fit looser than the scale tells me. I find it disappointing weighing more than once a week.

    Qwalla got a reaction from Caribear in Homemade applesauce   
    Just thought I would share a recipe I made. I purchased a small crockpot. I have 2 others but too big for hubby and me eating less. I bought four apples different kinds for taste flavors. I peeled and sliced them out about half cup Water and splash of lemon juice in. I then added a touch sugar free maple pancake Syrup also. I added quite a bit of cinnamon cause I love cinnamon. Put the lid on and my house smelled like apple pies baking. After 6 to 7 hours or till tender I mashed up with a potato masher. It is yummy to my tummy. I just put a tablespoon or so in cottage cheese and it is so good. I have also dipped my deli turkey or ham in it. Just thought I would share. Hope you all have a terrific healthy day!!!!
