Mandated 12 hr dry fasting for routine testing and I'm already so thirsty. Is there such a thing as head thirst? Lol Checking out my gallbladder in the AM just to prove whether or not I am a sleeve unicorn (dumping syndrome) or a regular @$$ lol. How is everyone else doing?

I am a chronic abuser of ... both! 😂

Had this happened to me, I would have called my children to my bedside, to give them their blessings... I'm that dramatic too lol

I fracking wish...

My children can write in cursive, One day my progeny proudly lined up to display that they can sign my name Just. Like. Me. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

I asked this question in website assistance a while back. Liking original content or responses (all activities I believe) increases scores that can directly increases rewards points to the BP Store. I make it a point to like everything (relevant) to pay forward the points to everyone. I even made a post about it forever ago. But yes to the heart of the rant: This site can be a mixed bag, but doesn't have to stay that way. Before I became super active, I called out bullying and some disagreed it was occurring. (I will leave it up to everyone to decide what they personally think) so I decided instead of leaving (like I wanted) I would try to make a haven in some spaces. Fun threads, extra positivity when possible, etc... Some balance. I will not engage in most debates these days because it's a fruitless task for me and I really just want everyone to be successful.

I did not, I won't lie. BUT Sometimes when dumping syndrome happens I do start looking for my receipts 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 Word of encouragement: "If wishes were horses we'd all be eating steak..." -Jayne

Everyone will feel differently. You may not get the full sensation until you are overfilled and that's no fun. It was suggested to me because I never got the signal fullness either early on that if there is a disconnect between the stomach and brain satisfied feeling, use portion control in it's place as a back up (1/8 cup, 1/4 cup, 1/3 cup , etc) Contact your team for more details!

Suggest not talking about ANY surgical related matters until the day before surgery. Try to focus on other parts of life. This can be so all consuming at times, might as well focus heavily on it only when it actually happens. Try to focus on her exclusively for a bit. DEFLECT What does she have going on? Thinking about trying Yoga or going back to school, etc. Safe Journey!

Huh....you think they would want happy healthy employees. I bet their risk management consultants gave them some relevant data like "78% of the employees who have the procedures leave less than 1 year after"...

OMG how could I forget about the time I tried to pass out in Paris because I thought I could eat whatever I wanted with a sleeve. Not. Dumping Syndrome in French subtitles. Pas Bon...

Yay!!!!

Sure, I used to reset monthly to clear out things that snuck back in, jumpstart a stall or ease constipation... Only for a few days max but my team was always on board with my plans. Any direction from yours?

A rarity from me... Stripped down foods sorta BBQ chicken breast and roasted brussel sprouts before and after

Dinner rare stripped down food Kinda BBQ chicken breast and roasted brussel sprouts

Very interesting ! So the most realistic view based on this study is now that patients can hope to successfully maintain on average ~75% of maximum weight lost...

While in Whole Foods, I patiently pick mostly Brazil nuts out of the mixed nuts whole sale barrel... #highclasstrash #rubbish #refuse

But... you can count on their ice cream machine being broken. Balance

Nah. Plan on hunger returning.

I'm up from 156 to 157, cycle related but it appears my maintenance point is 155-160lbs. I'm cool with that 😎
