  1. I was on a pregnancy forum that had them and honestly it's really not welcoming to have those on a site full of grown people. Just try not to take stuff personal. That's what I do. Even when you think someone is trying to attack you just say they are attacking your opinion and move on. Getting all worked up on forums aren't worth it trust me. I use to and my husband would be like babe you don't know those people calm down its just a forum. Just stick to your opinions and simply don't tolerate disrespect but don't get offended easily either.
  2. If you walk around it does help although that's when I was in pain the worst. My pain lasted a week or so then suddenly it went away. I stop the pain meds four days post op because they didn't do anything but keep me up.
  3. I have been have trouble as well and simply no desire to drink it. I'm glad it's not just me. Broth is a liquid as well and jello is considered a liquid too....
  4. Omg! Opinions people that's all we are sharing. I don't mind disagreements.... Say what ever will make you happy. Not everyone knows I had surgery but if they ask I tell them.... Eventually you will be able to say diet and working out because this surgery is a tool it's still up to you to be successful. It's definitely not anyone's business why you were gone from work or even that you had an operation. I mentioned some people are embarrassed and said I was when I got the band however now I don't give a s*** what people think. It's just like me saying I did weight watchers I had a tool to assist me with getting my life (.) We all just need to understand these are opinions and opinions are what should be attacked and not the person giving it. Everyone is right in there own mind and I do believe there are people out there who don't lie they are usually psychopaths <--- that was a joke by the way lololol
  5. Tell the truth(.) Why wouldn't you? If anyone ask i tell I start from the beginning with my lap band to now. I'm not embarrassed however after first I was but then I said bump it! I'm proud of my decision to get control over my health and I definitely wasnt heavy eater or anything like that I just couldn't get the weight off me. You have to personally find your BUMP it thought and go with it. I do think people are embarrassed and that's why they don't tell the truth. You wouldn't hide showing up with a baby when you never appeared pregnant its all a blessing. You telling someone like you can help them because honestly only people who are bigger ask me a skinny person will act like they don't notice.
  6. Hey you guys I think the Instagram page isn't working out unless everyone became friends so I decided to create a secret Facebook page called Sleeved and Freed so either post email address for Facebook or find group and request to join
  7. Broth will help with liquid and food and honestly I think at least 2 oz depending on the Popsicle. And your are welcome anytime. I struggle with my liquid and protein intake because I'm not a sipper and I gulp water and then feel like imma die after I do it.
  8. What is the Facebook page called I've requested to be added last week not sure if the one who is managing it had received notification as the notifications have been acting up.
  9. Can you do broth? That counts as a liquid and so does sugar free Popsicles.
  10. I feel the same way. I can't remember to take the one at night because it says with food really? I don't want to take these forever I know that! Oh and mine is a capsule but its HUGE!
  11. Hey Hun what kind of Vitamins are you taking and which one is causing you the problems? I am not getting enough Fluid in as well so I know how you are feeling. Do you have anymore nausea meds maybe take those before or after you eat. In the beginning I felt the same way.
  12. Can I be added to the Facebook group.... dbeavers@uoregon.edu thanks!
  13. I think I added correctly I'm not sure.. I guess I will see!
