I love these NSV's! CONGRATS! Keep sharing your NSV's!

Come on over Brandymarie! We are waiting to start your journey! LOL CONGRATS!

I have had to dye my hair twice. I have come to the conclusion that if my hair is going to come out, there's really not anything I can do to stop it. Trust me, I have tried. I'm seriously thinking about getting it dyed really soon due to gray hairs are about an 1" now. I do take a lot of biotin and silica for my hair. So it is growing really fast.

Here is the recipe for JEN's PB Protein bars: Jen’s Chewy chocolate PB Protein Bars ! Posted by admin January 24, 2011 Looking for a healthy and TASTY Meal Replacement bar you can make at home? Try these out! I just made them for my husband and he loves them! Be careful kids…they are delicious! xoxo Jen Chewy Chocolate & Peanut Butter Bars 1 cup oat flour 1 ½ cups whey Protein powder ¼ cup cocoa powder ½ cup nonfat dry milk powder ¼ cup stevia blend ½ teaspoon salt 2 egg whites ¼ cup creamy peanut butter 1/3 cup Water Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Line a 9”x9” baking pan with wax paper. Combine all dry ingredients in blender — Process on high speed 2 minutes. In a bowl, beat eggs, and peanut butter. Add the dry ingredients to the egg mixture. With an electric mixer, slowly add the water until dough becomes a “gooey play-dough” consistency. Pour batter in lined pan, spreading, or pressing dough to an even thickness. Bake for about 15 minutes. Remove from pan and allow to cool slightly. Remove wax paper and allow to cool completely. Cut into 8 bars. Calories: 250 Protein: 24g Carbs: 24 Fats: 7 g

Kris, i buy the QuestBar. It has 20g protein, no sugar or sugar alcohol used, 200 c per bar (I eat 1/2) and has 22g total carb, 18g dietary fiber, sugar 1g. When you subtract dietary fiber from total carbs, your actually getting 4 carbs per bar, and since I only eat 1/2, I'm actually getting 2 carbs. A nutritionist I get news letters from talks about a healthy protein bar called JEN. I still need to search for it. You can get more info on QuestBar on www.wuestproteinbar.com.

Take one day at a time. Don't over do it. Enjoy all the awwwwww's you get from others! You are truly blessed! Keep water near you at all times to get in the habit of drinking it to stay hydrated.

CONGRATS! These will probably be the longest 3 weeks for you. Your process with getting approved was very short and that makes it a lot easier. Can't wait to hear more about your journey!

OMG! absolutely stunning! Keep Rockin that Sleeve!

Gosh, I have nothing to whine about. Oh, I did weigh myself just to be amazed at the new 158.4 scale #. Was pleasantly surprised that I had dropped a couple of ozs. YAYYYYYYYYYYY! But I really wasn't expecting anything. I'm cold and then I'm hot. Confusing, yes I know. Anyhow, have a wonderful day!

We all need to get our vitamins in. I know that I forget to take mine sometimes. I'm terrible at taking the B12 even though I know that it will give me more energy. Need to readjust myself. There done! I've readjusted. LOL

Congrats Lissa! Keep Rockin that Sleeve!

CONGRATS! Welcome to a healthier life style. The sleeve is the best thing I've ever done.

You look stunning! CONGRATS! Keep Rockin that Sleeve!

Congrats! Can't wait for you to join me on the BIG LOSER'S BENCH!

My docs were clear liquids for 3 weeks.

Congrats! You are doing great! Keep up the hard work.

I take biotin 10,000mcg, silica, and use nioxin shampoo and conditioner. I still find alot of hair in the drain and my hairbrush, not to mention my comb also. So sad but worth it for this body now. I feel so much better. I have started taking fish oil caps too. So, hair starts growing in around 6 months? I wonder how long it will take to get longer and fill in. LOL

I have very few cloths that fit right now. I bought some Levi jeans that I out grew in about 4 weeks. I also have a size 11 that I outgrew but I still wear them with a belt. I have bought some clearance sexy blouses from Victoria Secret and that's it. Oh recently I bought a size 10 blazer and M blazer with 1 blouse that is a little snug across the shoulders. I love my new body. It's absolutely beautiful. This hard work is paying off.

Thank you. This makes a lot of sense. I have about 28 lbs to loose and am coming to the point where I am loosing very little weight. This really sucks, but it is what it is and I will do what I need to, to stay on track to get to goal. I'm 5'6" and currently weigh 158.6 lbs. I want to get down to 130 lbs.

I would not worry too much about the carb thing right now. Just eat what you can, protein mostly like soups, broths, yogurt, jello sf, pudding sf, cottage cheese. These are all good foods. Like MegInNola stated. Do the best you can and try not to stress tooooo much....

Could be vitamin deficency like topgun suggested. Low iron, etc. Are you laying down with your feet up now? It would be a great idea if your not already. Talking with your doc is an excellent suggestion. You will be okay.

I have not had any of these problems. I tend to under eat my sleeve. Oh wait, In the beginning, I use to have food sit right in my esophaus which felt really wierd, but would be gone in 10 minutes. I do have alot of constipation which can sometimes be painful passing. But other than that, no problems. I do have stalls like everyone else. But overall, no slimes, I do burp but not much and I have alot of gas and I fart!. I can handle these. I love my sleeve.

Great article. Thanks for sharing!
