SIPS in Seattle

Scratching my back... those hard to reach itchies, I can totally scratch my entire back myself now. Amazing.

Depending on the length of your hair you might get more value going to like sally beauty and buying your color and developer separately. Box dyes are one and done and sometimes pretty hard on hair. But if you buy the professional color and developer individually, you can mix as much or as little as you need each time.

They also have fantasy colors which is what I prefer.

Have you had blood work done lately? My doc just told me yesterday that Vitamin A deficiencies can lead to dry skin too.

I’m dying over here. Tonight I made broccoli slaw and it was delicious. Totally didn’t think about the after effects of consuming raw broccoli. The whole house stinks...the poor ozone layer is being depleted and I thank the baby Jesus that I’m currently single.
Note to self... lay off the raw broccoli! 🥦 =

Congrats! I was so friggen happy to get rid of that torture device. So happy to get rid of the port and the aches and pains that it gave me.

You’re gonna love your SIPS!

I just had my blood work done today along with my 24 hour urine so this may change by next doc visit:

2 Gummy multi - costco brand

6 (250mg Calcium citrate) three times a day (18 pills, 4500mg) - costco brand

Zinc - 1 pill 3x a day 50mg

Vitamin A 3 softgels (10000iu) 3x a day

B12 - injection once a week

Iron 1 pill 4 times a day - generic

D2 1 x a day 50000iu

D3 1x a day 2000iu

Biotin 10000iu 1 pill 2x a day

I don’t crush anything. A whole lot of fricken pills... but I’m 6lbs from goal and will happily swallow all these pills.

My 2nd time around I started at a HW of 242 at my revision consult. Which was actually heavier than my first wls back in 2010. SW was 226 on 8/8/17. My program never asked me to set a specific goal. If I went by the BMI chart, I should be 142. I had exactly 100lbs of excess weight to lose. My personal goal would be to get to 150. Just at the top of normal on the BMI chart for my height. As of this morning, I have 9lbs to go.

My first NSV that really stood out was being able to wear riding boots that weren’t wide calf. Now I can cross my legs easily and even double cross my legs. Also, I tried on jeans on Sunday and was able to put on a size 8 without issue.

and yes, I would never get a lap band. I have not heard of any long-term success as it seems to slip even years and years after being put in. My mom got a gastric sleeve six months ago and has had success.

Curiosity got me.... you want a lapband but your screen name is gastricsleeve2018?

2 words....

The devil has left the building! It was touch and go there for a while. My goodness I’ve never in my life had so much gas... it was like one after another after another...

The good news is that the paint didn’t melt off the walls like I thought it would and the windows are still intact.

Hahahaha

Two words: squatty potty

Total lifesaver.

Thanks. That is the same price that Amazon has for a two pack. Good to know that I did not overpay.

I logged in to check for you . They’re 39.99 for the two. Months ago when I purchased mine they were on sale for 10.00 off.

Thanks! Amazon seemed a bit high. Will look at costco and Sams online.

Just an FYI, got mine at costco and it came with two of them.

Amen. Just bought one and my life is totally changed. No more BM stress!
