ANY APRIL SURGERIES?....



Recommended Posts

It was $100 to become distributor for it works. I read some negative stuff too. But the girl I signed under has showed me her own before and afters and it really made a difference. Someone posted that they used it and it worked, but a few days later it came back and then some. I think you are supposed to use it like every 3 days. You don't just use it once and stop. I figured it couldn't hurt, maybe if I start at the beginning of the weight loss my skin won't be so saggy. I haven't used it yet, waiting on steri/strips to come off.

I have staples and steristrips. I don't mind titanium, since I have a titanium hip!

I have to give myself the blood thinner shots in my belly. Don't like that. And today is the first day that my throat hasn't hurt like crazy. But my shoulders do. Weird.

My nurse told me that many people experience shoulder pain. It is the gas working it's way out. I know it sounds odd, but apparently it's true. Maybe the gas rises and manifests in your shoulders?

Thanks, I had heard that gas can hurt in the shoulders. Knowing others experienced it first hand helps. I will go use my massager on my shoulders, put my feet up, and forget it!

Quote I was intrigued by your mention of It Works body wrap. So, I did a search for reviews. The best place to look is Amazon.com. Type this is the search box: It Works! Body Wraps. (1) Ultimate Body Applicators (Health and Beauty) The reviews were eye opening, everything from 5 stars to 1 star. What was interesting is that 93 people gave it 1 star, but only 49 people gave it 5 stars. The discussion is very interesting, so I recommend reading the comments to get a good feel for it. Some buyers got no results, others got fantastic results. So, I'd probably try it after some more research. How much does it cost if you become a distributor? And do tell us your results, rootie3. Promise? I did the It works wraps. I used it on my arms, neck, stomach, and ankles. It did work it was wonderful for 2 days then it came back with a vengeance. I lost 2 inches around my arms and in 2 days I was 3 inches bigger.

You have to keep using them, like every 3 days. But I figured it would help in the long run with all the weight loss.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
