    I have some Happy News for you.
    chocolate comes from Cocao which is a plant. Therefore chocolate must be a salad itself. LOL

    Letsgetgoing2018 got a reaction from Queenbee34 in How long did you take before going back to work?   
    I work from home at a desk job. Took two full weeks off. Biggest hurdle for me was the exhaustion during the day. Had to take a nap during my lunch break. Don’t rush going back if you don’t have to. Give your body as much time to rest and heal as possible.

    As a nurse, I would never talk to my patient this way. Hoping you’re able to find the information you need to make the best choice for you. I don’t regret my sleeve one bit.

    Letsgetgoing2018 got a reaction from ProudGrammy in 30 days out and FREEZING COLD   
    I can so relate. I used to drive with the windows down even on the coldest days. When I was at my heaviest I was ALWAYS hot! Now I need the socks on and the sweatshirt on and don’t like the windows down. Guess it’s a good sign!🎉🎊

    Hi. Couldn’t sleep so perusing my fav site. Came upon your post. Yes. My anxiety has gotten worse since I had the surgery. I suffered from an anxiety disorder before surgery but it seems to have gotten worse since. I try to use meditation and try to relax when possible. I am a nurse and am a single mom working two jobs. Not easy. Be kind To yourself. Try to take baby steps. Sounds like you have a very busy life but you have to find even fifteen minutes here and there to close your eyes and regroup. Best of luck to you. Feel free to reach out.

    Yes. I had pain with swallowing and going down in the beginning if I swallowed too big a bite and didn’t chew enough. The pain was bad. I hope things gets easier for you soon.

    Hope you all start feeling better. I’m five months out from being sleeved and I remember in the beginning how tender you have to be to your new tummy. It will get better and easier with time.
