  1. Thank you for your reply. You mean just drink shakes and nothing more?
  2. At first I was so good about everything. Now a year out I am having problems with control of what I eat. Just try to stay on track and you will do fine. As long as it is not a constant thing. Good luck.
  3. Has anyone had a severe drop in their white blood cell count since surgery? Mine has dropped to 1.5
  4. Help one year since surgery. Up until a few weeks ago maintaining all the weight I lost at goal 75 pounds down. Now the hunger has come back to a degree and I put on four pounds in the last week. Am so upset. I know I am eating to many snacks. Also has anyone been diabetic free for more than five years. I have been off of medication for it since the day after surgery. But heard for some reason it usually returns after five years. Also anyone have any recommendations for skin wrinkles? Bad on face especially neck. Sorry for so many questions but just found this site. Thank you and suggestions for any of the above would be appreciated.

  6. It will get better. Recently I have lost my last best friend so I now have no close friends. And it is hard at my age to make new ones. So I understand how you feel. I try to do things that get me out of the house even if I have to do it alone. I wish you well.

  9. where do you get the peppermint oil?
