Walking shoes recommendations
My husband and I both love New Balance, but I also enjoy Skechers. I think either would be a great affordable choice!

Trouble With Eggs Post-Op?
Still can’t really eat eggs after 11 months out. They just feel like they get stuck in my throat and won’t go down.

Anyone here who had surgery in their 60's?
I had my gastric sleeve at 63. Best decision I could have made. Paid for it out of pocket without insurance help. Didn’t want to jump through hoops for another year to have insurance pay for it. Highly recommend it to change your life. I’m 11 months out and need to lose 11 lbs to reach my goal.

More restriction after PS?
I’m two weeks out since my tummy tuck with muscle repair and hernia repair. I definitely have a restriction and am back to eating portions like when I began eating solid foods after my gastric sleeve. My plastic surgeon said that’s very common and should continue for awhile.

Too old for plastics?
I just had a tummy tuck, hernia repair and breast lift on Monday. I’m 64 years young. No regrets and I’m still very much in the healing process. Had Gastric sleeve 11 months ago and so glad I didn’t wait any longer for my plastics. I had a basketball size hernia sack that was removed as well as hernia repair with mesh and about 3-4 lbs of skin. It’s all worth it! Go for it at any age!

Do you have a FULL trigger? I sneeze when full!
I also get a runny nose and sneeze when I’m full. Glad to know I’m not the only one.

Covid Vaccine
My husband and I both got the Moderna. We had a sore arm after the first one and we were both extra tired after the second one the day after. I would recommend anyone to get it. We lost too many friends to Covid.

Abdominal hernia repair and Tummy Tuck
Has anyone had an abdominal hernia repair and tummy tuck at the same time? I had abdominal hernia repair 4 months before my VSG and it’s not right. My lower abdomen has been extremely distended since the surgery, even with a 66 pound weight loss. Just want to hear anyone else’s experience. Thanks!

Stomach "growling"
I’m six months out and my stomach is so noisy after eating or drinking. There is no pain associated with the noise. My husband now calls me “Tiger” due to all the growling.

Protein water
Do any of the protein waters come without flavoring and taste just like water? I can’t do any artificial sweeteners.
