I haven't been able to sleep for years. It's a very big problem. I take Ambien and I am sure that's the problem now, because I would never be able to sleep at all without it.

I use to take Ambien a 1/2 tab at a time. Man, that stuff really works. But then i started reading where people can sleep walk/talk/eat/drive/sex. My hubby did tell me " on more than one occasion"' that we'd been intimate, and I don't remember, so sleep sex is true! I quit that stuff cold turkey..Lol!

*falls asleep as tyyyyyyping…* LOL

No fun, if you don't remember it! All though, still burning calories.

I honestly think I had more trouble sleeping pre op than I do now.

Even though its still not great. Am I wrong in assuming that as we get older we sleep less anyway? Most of the older people I know seem to survive on tidbits. I cant imagine that, I want my ten hours!

Oh, nice new pics Laura and Less!

Thank you! <3

Thank you!! Everybody's putting up new pictures and its confusing me..so I thought I'd mess with them too!

Yeah, I have heard all those stories about ambien. I am really lucky. I take it and get in bed and wake up about 6 hours later. I wish I could sleep longer. Sometimes I do lay there a long time before I can fall asleep. I have no desire to get up and eat or talk on the phone or drive or any of the things I've heard people do.

I am sure DH would love for me to wake him up, but all I want to do is fall asleep!

I don't have a new pic, I'll have to try and make myself perty tomorrow

Hey Laura, you look fantastic!

I take synthroid and do not have to crush it! My doc said that as long as pills are not much bigger than an M&M candy there is nothing to worry about with the sleeve surgery!! Good luck and welcome!

Oh good to know!!!!!! Thanks! :)

Just wondering what most of you guys do.

I count my calories, proteins and try to keep my carbs under 50g daily. Do any of you count everything as in sodium and fats etc as well as what I have mentioned?

Saying this, I do use low fat milk and yoghurt. Have found I'm not actually using a lot of yoghurt these days and the milk I have is only used in my protein shakes and cups of tea/coffee. I was using unsweetened almond milk but decided that I wanted the extra protein that comes with cows milk as have been trying to build my protein up to 90g daily and have been doing pretty well with that.
