    Hi girls im stateside. I take a prenatal vitamin (it helps with hair loss and iron deficiency) b12 liquid, biotin, pepcid ac, and calcium with vitamin d. Also a medicine to prevent gall stones
  3. My doc told me today that the reason im losing slower is bc im short 4'10, and i started at 201.5 day of surgery. Anyone else with same experience?
  4. Good luck my dear, prayers going to you! Im a single mom to a 5 yr old and 4 yr old boys

    Firebelle, we are hot....see the steam coming from our hotness? Lol
  10. I eat every two hours small mini meals. I am a diagnoes binge eater, i used to eat one calorie dense meal daily and starve myself, which would make me gain weight. Now, the mini meals, restriction and excersise have helped me lose 35 lbs in less then two months. Plusmy tool, the sleeve prevents me from binging the way i used to. I keep a food diary and see a therapist once a week. I also keep my carb and sugar intake at a bare minimum. Good luck in your decision. This was the best thing i have ever done for mysf

    Small children?? Omg i didnt start till i was 25...thats scary. And i never got addicted. But considering that most arab countries (at least egypt) do not require kids safety seats in cars etc, im not totally surprised. I will be one of those old ladies....just bring me a hot lebanese argeeleh boy to flip the coals! Lol
  15. Possible pregnancy? Just a thought....7 weeks is a long time
  16. True. What i should have said was heavier people. Doc told me that ppl who get surgery at 350-500 lbs lose more faster bc they have alot to lose. But i started at 42 bmi and today its 36. So im happy with 30+ in 6 weeks its better then gaining

    Why am i craving sex

    When i am remarried and sexually active i will also think before i reply to a thread like this with an unintelligent response...just sayin.

    Why am i craving sex

    I was married too, and sex was safe even if i got pregnant. My ex was also disease free. Im also semi religious. So yes sex is great but for those of us who are single, and for me, there are too many risks to casual sex. HIV, herpes, unwanted pregnancy....etc. so as much as i need and want it, the risks always keep me from doing so. I said in previous post i was on the verge but i know myself, i will chicken out.

    Haha, I am post sleeve and could only get a tablespoon in and some egg. I was full. I was able to eat it at 4 weeks out when I was on mushies because I made super soft. Good luck with your surgery.

    Why am i craving sex

    I have been celibate for 18 months. I am going through the same thing, all though masturbation helps, but not much at all. Just a release. I am also terrified of getting pregnant and stds! Glad there is someone else like me. I am on the verge though, I will take BC, plan b and make him use a condom if I take the plunge

    Just FYI everyone, foulen (fava beans) are excellent protein and fiber source. Just dont overdo the olive oil....i only put half a teaspoon if not less in mine. Fresh lime or lemon juice and some cumin. I had it with egg this morning. I am still missing falafel, but I will save that craving for when I get to Alexandria this year ISA.
