Go to the ticker site. Once you create it, scroll down and you copy and paste the link into your signature page on veritcalsleeve. That's the brief description. Hopefully, you can figure it out from that. If not, Tiffany posted how exactly to do it on one of these forums. I will look and see if I can find it again. -
I made my decision and put it in God's hands after that.

I've recently started putting splenda back in my decaf tea again and went from never being hungry to feeling like I've started to get more hungry and have cravings. I don't know if it's in my head or the splenda. Please share with me' what you know on this topic. I'm also pre period so I don't know if that is affecting me' or the splenda. Thank you in advance.

I don't understand what all this talk is about slider food and drinking pushing it down?????? Confused. Don't know what slider food is. -
I received alot of criticism for having this surgery with a bmi of 31.8. However, I wanted to lose the weight and keep it off and not feel like I'm starving all the time. When I was cutting back to 1200 calories to lose weight I had headaches and the shakes all the time. I'm not eating near 1200 calories now and I haven't had a headache or shakes. It's a miracle.

Splenda - What do you know?
AChristian replied to AChristian's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Thanks. I will try Stevia. However there is a blizzard warning in my state and the roads are coated with ice at the moment. I will try it in a few days -
I'm a lower bmi. My weight hovered around 185 mostly. However , I started this journey at 192 due to overindulging at the holidays. I was sleeved on the 20th and I've lost 12 pounds in 10 days.

Thanks for sharing your experience. I think it's important to remember just because one feels ready doesn't mean your stomach is. -
