Stuck At First Every Time I Eat Anything
shawnapowers replied to NC Mama's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Same problem! But I also just found out it is common to throw up more often when your on your menstrual period...my doc told me this is and I was like wow it all makes sense now!!! -
My doc said alcohol is basically just empty calories, try the skinny girl line, it's good and reasonable priced, I am currently enjoying their cucumber vodka, with just water it's delicious!!! And still gives the same "relaxation" that you are looking for, the vodkas are new but they have margaritas, wines, piña colodas as well as other drinks, I swear I don't sell this stuff haha! Maybe I should though!!!!
