Idk what it is but this birth control- all I've tried make me feel miserable. Currently I'm on the NuvaRing and love it for convience sake but the hormones are unbearable. I just don't know what else to do.

Take a pack of chicken breast (like four) frozen or thawed. Put them in a crock pot. Pour a regular size bottle of Italian dressing (fat free) over it. Cook on low for 5 hours. Tada!

It's wanted to give a YUM review real quick. I'm allergic to nuts and can only stand so much of the chocolate stuff. This bar is a few more carbs than I'd prefer (35) but its great tasting for pumpkin lovers (like me). Has 30g of protein and isn't as huge as other bars. I'm stoked!

What Do You Tell People About Ypur Weightloss?
alliegb3 replied to dooter55's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I just said a high protein, low carb diet and exercise. It's personal to me. If someone were to prod further, I'd tell them I had surgery, but most don't really care, and are satisfied if I tell them I'm dieting -
Update On Patrick
alliegb3 replied to Patrick Curl's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Great to hear- thanks for posting for him! Tell him to walk walk walk and we love him! -
I use fitnesspal as well. I always have my phone on me, so it's easy. My husband is on there and some people from VST, all of them are encouraging and care if I'm not on. They soon ask, where I am and stuff... Those caring people keep me on track with fitnesspal

The loritab will make some people sick- especially if taken on an empty stomach... Which I'm sure u have... You can try drinking something and then taking it or liquid Tylenol

Will I Ever Enjoy Eating Again?
alliegb3 replied to ShouldBlittler's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Nope. Eating is miserable. I get kinda depressed because I can't sit and enjoy dinner or whatever. But I've learned to enjoy my family time -
I drink some water. Sometimes hot water. It makes me feel full-ish and I go back to sleep... But then I'll have to get up and pee... Can't win em all

Question For The Mommies
alliegb3 replied to JenniJune's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
We have a different menu, but I still cooked for them. We are eating more nutritious things, like for snack, not ice cream but fruit or yogurt, switched chicken nuggets for homemade grilled chicken and kabobs. Just little changes to get the best food in them that I know how. -
I take 2, 2,500 a day, love my hair n nails!

Cravings & Hunger Q's
alliegb3 replied to bandalyons83's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Yes, yes you do. The stomach changes but nose and mouth don't. I found myself wanting a McDonald's double cheeseburger and chic fil a quite frequently. And I want bread. I'd kill four midgets for some bread. But all that said, this is a test of some great will power! -
Yep, it's normal.

Woohoo!

Itchy Rash On Tummy A Week Out From Surgery
alliegb3 replied to Thinner Peace's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Mine was all over. It itched like all get out. I drank benadryl like water. It was odd cause it came on like several days after surgery. Idk what that was all about, but that's how it happened. If it gets rough, call the doc. -
Earlier Date?
alliegb3 replied to Kiki Von Moonshine's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
My doc called me, but I made it clear I wanted first available. Just communicate with them and they'll do the best they can. People will drop out occasionally and your willingness will fill a void spot -
Itchy Rash On Tummy A Week Out From Surgery
alliegb3 replied to Thinner Peace's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Yep- I was allergic to the steri-strips. It's the adhesive that broke me out. -
I was just about to put this up... Sounds yummy don't it
-

Worried About My Daughter
alliegb3 replied to AKSleever's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
You gotta lead by example. Go out on walks with her, play outside with her, make healthy snack and meals. Shell have no choice but to be fit. And don't worry too much, when she hits puberty she'll thin down a bit -
Yep, no 'x' in front of my 'L' anymore. Yes, yes yes! I may not be losing too many lbs, but my body is slowly shrinking! And that's most important to me.
-
Yep- this surgery took away my best/most consistent friends: food. It's a natural thing I believe. You will pull out of it. It will get better. Lots of love!

I looked at some. I'm not that sensitive if they've been manufactured in a plant with nuts, but I'll keep an eye out on ingredients just to make sure.
