  1. I take the entire cap and it always works
  2. My feelings exactly. So touching.
  3. That's exactly what I do. I also squeeze half a lime and ice in it and drink it all throughout the day.
  4. Awesome! I cannot WAIT to travel and not feel like I'm going to collapse within the first few steps. As a matter of fact, I already purchased tickets to visit my sister in Finland in November and am soooooo excited for the experience. I just had my surgery last Friday. I'm 5'10 and was 302lbs on surgery day. I go for my first follow up next Friday and am looking forward to see how much I will have lost by then. Congratulations on ur success. It's very inspiring [emoji253]
  5. Congrats on getting to the other side ? You're not the only one: I started thinking about food day 3. I tried to use the time to understand the difference between real hunger and head hunger. I knew mine HAD to be head hunger because my new stomach was still sore and full from protein shakes and crystal light. I tried to keep my brain occupied by manually creating a chart to keep track of what I ate/took daily. Also I tried reading up on mind-body connection After all, that mind-body disconnect IS why I got to this point. I also knew my end goal was to get it straight in my head and deal with whatever issues made me such a big over eater So really this is ur best time to start/continue that journey. Don't substitute one addiction with another I wish you well!! Ana
  6. Wait: your staples get removed??? How?
  7. My surgery's at 7am. Slightly nervous but more excited than anything. Will check In when I can. Happy Friday !
  8. I'm allowed lo-carb vegetables so I googled it to know which vegetables fit the bill and came up with a salad of beet/artichoke hearts/cucumber/onion/fat free Caesar salad dressing. It absolutely helps with the hunger. It's delicious.
  9. Mine is Friday the 12th as well! We'll both be fine[emoji4]
  10. That's awesome news! My nutritionist and the surgeon's assistant bot said it would be hard to swallow pills. Thankfully I only take Allegra-D for allergies, unlike so many other people who take a boatload. R u saying that u were able to take the vitamins and calcium 24hrs after surgery?
  11. My surgery is this Friday May 12th and I feel like going to the store and punching a whole in every protein shake I find lol!
  12. I just had the appointment with my surgeon this morning and incredibly they had a cancellation for May 12th (10 days from now ). I snatched it up immediately...can you believe it??? I'll start the 2-week liquid diet asap. So excited!
  13. Yes! Can't wait for the aches and pains to lessen/disappear!
  14. Good luck!!! Sooooo exciting for you[emoji4][emoji1417]
  15. Same thing happened to me: biopsies of my stomach. It turned out that I had the H. Pylori bacteria and was given a two-week antibiotic treatment. Apparently pretty common, even though I'd never of it till then.
