Thank you for the reminder to stay the course!

I chose this surgery as an alternative (off brand use) to another and it was agreed upon by all of my teams that if it didn't produce desired effect within a certain amount of time (no matter how much weight I lost) I have to move forward with another method of treatment I don't really want. So I'm running out of time, 5% just would not work for my case. But I started this thread for a little look on the bright side or the struggle is real either way perspective because I really only get to see my journey

Amazing

Absolutely agree there should be a way to 

I still wear the same type of clothing because I'm still the same type of person

Two worlds apart

Adding to #ProgressSunday Super proud of everyone !

There are a lot of different people here doing this for a lot of different reasons , some are more time sensitive. My expectations were not unrealistic, my frustration comes from needing to reach a certain point by a deadline agreed on by my practitioner

First time i ever thought about this but I take various forms of vitamins (and meds) throughout the day. Some are gummies. I tend to drink after as im taking other forms of vitamins also. Is this considered eating and drinking?

So sorry this is happening , have you tried motion sickness bracelets like the ones used on boats etc ? How about only eating and drinking cool/room temp/warm things? How about keeping a heating pack on your abdomen? Are you often cold? It may just be your body in a state of unhappy adjustment but not illness. You may need to look at out of the box solutions. Safe journey

Wipes to replace bathing

Im almost certain that they are adding some addictive agent to theater popcorn because of the way i react when i smell it. Have not touched it in almost a 10 months now. I dont crave any foods when smelled like this. Its insane. Anyone know of any good conspiracy theories on the subject? Its not like coffee and chocolate which are addictive, its corn...

Bluntly say you NEED a referral, dont take no for an answer...

Amazing

Sorry ... Hugs

I don't have a problem cooking foods I can't eat , the question was if it was in fact a food I could not eat. I did eat some, not a slippery slope because I doubt I will invest the energy and resources to make it again when I could just eat boiled eggs or beans lol

My surgeon did such a fantastic job i joke and say its almost like i never had surgery. UNTIL I forget and try something too decadent and dump. And i have the sleeve...

This may be controversial but you can drink more with a straw... Stay hydrated!

I just attended a support group and a someone asked how to prevent and reverse regain and here were some things mentioned: Start planning and timing your meals again Dont eat and drink within 30 mins of each other Hydrate for the majority of your day (calorie and sugar free) you cant over eat if youre drinking No random snacking, this is grazing and leads to weight gain Weight yourself weekly, youll always know whats really going on Attend support groups Mental health is as important as physical, dont neglect it Any major changes call your Doctor immediately
