    When does the gurgling stop?

    I know this is a late response, but I'm searching out this topic. I'm 21 months out AND IT STILL HASN'T STOPPED. its SOOO loud sometimes, I frequently have to eat alone, because I'm embarrassed.

    Great to "hear" from you DeeDee. You were DEFINITELY one of my inspirations on this board. Im glad to see that you are HAPPY! I think HAPPY is way more important than the number on the scale. Congrats on little Lucy...she is a DOLL!

    Anyone using Mirena IUD?

    I just got my Mirena on Dec 15. I feel like I dont want to lose anymore, as I am 173 and losing my curves. My appetite is voracious and I have had spotting/period for 8 days now. I havent gained anything I havent lost in the next 2 days but its noticeable. Im hating it! I had discharge and some "smell" for the first week after it was inserted and now the never ending bleeding. Im depressed. If the bleeding does not subside by the time I go for my 6 week check up I'm having it removed.

  7. Sounds good to me!! Im a slow loser too, and its mainly because of my choices, but Im fine with that. The shopping IS fun, but it is a challenge.

    NSV shout outs

    Went to take the babe (3 yr old) to Denny's for breakfast. It was freezing in there. Anyway she wanted to sit on my lap...in the booth...UGH! She fit! She fit on my lap with my legs under and everything. I just smiled and told her I would hold her as long as she wanted me too...didnt last long when her food arrived.

    And the stupid comments begin...

    I thought I was doing a good thing by telling people. But everything is not for everyone... So sorry you had to experience that.

    Sleeved for 5 hours now!

    On the second day they just gave meds in the IV. Dr. A said I was doing "extremely" well on the 2nd day. I didn't feel bad at all. Good luck!~
  20. CONGRATS!!! You have lost a whole person! Im so proud of you. You are a great inspiration as to what perseverance can do in this process. Great Job!
  21. Congrats on your weight loss! I noticed the same thing. I used to have to take something to go to sleep and the sleep was never all that restful. Now I love it! I love MY SLEEVE!
  22. I have tried not to be sooo hard on myself. Why?? Because I know the reasons why my weight loss has stalled and I haven't done anything to fix it. I try to remember that I have already lost 50% of my EW; good thing. But for some reason I was just for sure thinking I would be down 60 lbs in 4 months. NOT. Im only down 43. I don't exercise, I don't meet my protein and fluid goals, I drink my calories AND I graze around my TOM. I think this its self-sabotage because I have failed so many times in the past. There I said it. Tis done. Holding myself accountable: I will walk a minimum of 30 minutes a day 5x a week. I will drink one protein shake each day (ugh). I will drink one gallon of water each day. I know what needs to be done...now I have to do it!:tongue_smilie:

    Dr. Aceves

    I agree with the other posters 1000% Dr. Aceves and his team are wonderful. I wouldnt have had it any other way AND I came all the way from MARYLAND! ALONE! :svengo:
