  1. So be accountable for your actions track what you eat use myfitnesspal it's a good way to keep yourself in check
  2. I also converted from Lapland to sleeve I'm almost 2 months out.. I had issues with my port and never had proper restriction with the band. I really like my sleeve I have a feeling you will too. Who's your doctor I see your local
  3. Um you will have a scar you can't avoid that I've been using BioOil it's amazing
  4. My port would stick out lots I had a low profile port mind you.. Yeah long story I had it replaced just 6 months after I was banded because the regular port hurt all the time.. Now I have no port a perfect sleeve and I'm eggcited to get skinny again..
  5. Glad to hear you're feeling better..
  6. Is it the biggest one? If it is that's the one that had more trauma they remove the stomach out of the biggest incision and normally it gets stretched a lot hence why it might be more painful give it a couple more days. If its not red or hot to the touch you'll be ok. Always contact your doc if it doesn't feel right..
  7. My breath is so nasty I can't stand it no matter how much I brush or listerine it doesn't make it better
  8. First day was a breeze second and third day was tough stay medicated and you'll be just fine. Who's our doc?
  9. You do understand that you are making your food drier that way. Chia seeds work well to hydrate you hence the soaking try using apple juice I like them in my lemonade..
  10. My face is broken out too its from the Protein try whey isolate see if it makes a difference
  11. Bloom your chia seeds in water and then add them to your food.. That's a whole lot of chia seeds keep in mind they have lots of calories.. Add about a Tbs of chia to 2 cups of water keep them in the fridge once they're all jellied up add them to your food..
  12. Antibiotics often cause yeast infections specially broad spectrum ones like the one you're pobrobly taking.. They kill all bacteria even the good kind.. Call your gyno get a script
  13. Congrats I also had Anthem they rock..
  14. Anyone on here using Nike's Fuel Band? Just got one for my birthday and I'm stoked..
  15. Try drinking hot tea about 30 minutes before you eat this will prime your stomach. Take small bites and make sure your food is moist. Lmk off this works
  16. Contact your surgeon sounds like you might need another dialation.
  17. I didn't have a dialated esophagus but normally the dialation gets better while you're on a liquid diet..so it takes a couple of weeks to shrink down..
  18. Why can't you sleep? Try taking Benadryl our zzzquil
  19. Be patient I'm down 18lbs post op but I've been moving walking really helps get all your water in but try to break a sweat everyday that's my goal anyways..
