  1. So happy on my wls results so far at 10 months post op now at 190 lbs from 298 lbs.
  2. For me they have. For my face I use 2x a day Lancome Viosionaire products. For my arms, belly and thighs I use daily a mexican product i used to buy in Mexico. But they have it in amazon now called Lipo Alcachofa cream.

  7. Thank you!! Thats awsome.[emoji7] ur doing great! I take more pictures now[emoji23] I get you! It is a struggle. Im proud to say i have not tried junk food simply cuz im scared of getting sick. Yes its easy to start eating a lil more and more as days go by. I did get scared once cuz I ate a lil to much and felt like dying. It was enough to keep me away from over eating or bad stuff. But what I do is play with my mind...lol if i crave pizza I make my own coliflower crust pizza..if i crave burgers i make veggie burger for me, pasta ? Butternut squash noodles for me.. my big crave is chips! Ill have like 2 pita chips and crave is done... meal portion/prep is a must for me,always Prepared anywhere I go I carry my stuff. Its the only way to stay focused. Yes im also scared of honeymoon stage ending which is why i try harder.
  8. Hang in there, ur just getting started! It all pays off.. Its worth it![emoji7] Best of luck!

Still taking my protein shakes and vitamins. Blood test have been perfect! No more diabetes, no more blood pressure, no more swelling in my feet. The only thing is hair loss but i cut my hair short wear extensions when i feel like it.( I know its temp) How are you doing?
