Blew it and smoked. What can I do to flush the cotinine out of my system. I've heard lots of water, oj and vitamin c. Any suggestions? Back on the e cig (no nicotine type).

My surgery comes with a bonus tummy tuck. I was told 1 year or 100 lbs. It's almost 10 months and I've lost 112 lbs. I look much smaller than I actually am it's just this butt in the front dropping loose skin of a stomach. I could wear 2 sizes smaller if it was gone. I am probably going to lose another 40-50 lbs. I'm active. Should I wait to goal or look into getting scheduled? It would be a definite morale boost and incentive.

my mom died end of April. I have zero interest in food since. What I try to eat A hurts and B makes me sick. Diarrhea daily for almost 2 weeks (how does your body producte BM with hardly any food? About the only thing I can tolerate is a few ounces whole chocolate milk. Pretty sure I'm dehydrated too. I've lost 6 lbs since yesterday at 5 am. I am trying to cope but refuse to have the meltdown I need. Idk what to do.

I weighed 303 the morning of surgery. That night I weighed 312...I'm going with that!

I'm just plain starving. I've lost so much weight since my mom passed at the end of April. I care nothing about food. I'm thinking about going to ER. Have some concerns.

They need to ban me from the store or stage an intervention. Got two more bras and panties. Panties are for after tummy tuck. Omg I love their bras! I'm in love with that little pink bag and tissue paper!!!

37 lbs from goal. Dropped 134 lbs. I'm out 13 mths.

Okay, most y'all know I lost my mom. 3 weeks today. I have had the equivalent of 3 small meals in that timeframe. I'm literally getting through the day on coffee and a cheese stick or peanut butter or cottage cheese. I'm drinking fruit2o. Today I worked myself into the ground taking out my grief on the yard...tearing it for all mom's perennials. What should I do? I boiled eggs like a week and a half ago. Tonight I finally mashed the little sobs up and made egg salad. Got about a cup down but it hurt my stomach. I don't know what to do! I don't drive, can't get to my surgeon etc. can't ask my grieving Dad. Ugh. HELP???

I'm a born thrifter. I love goodwill and such. I'm not ashamed to say I've boughten bras at those places. I figure I've "earned" that splurge on myself. I wore high heeled boots to my mom's memorial almost 3 weeks ago. My back hurt but it felt GREAT! I have a balance issue disease but I'll be damned if I let it dictate. I took a baby step and bought a darling pair (new...lol) of wedge filpflops for a graduation. Now I want a ankle bracelet. Lol. I forgot how it felt to be girlie!!!

I had to get measured too. I was shocked. I went from a 38 dd to a 38 C! I kept saying "did you say C???" I still had doubts when I brought it home. It was so tiny. I'll be damned the cute little thing fit and even held in the side boobs Now I have this very flimsy white tee I got on big clearance at Kohl's. Double v neck. I put it on over my cute little pink striped bra and wore it that way. It's padded so there was no nippleage. I felt sexy and I'm far from sexy. Throw your change in a jar ladies. Save up for a VS purchase. Feel sexy too.

Trust me, you'll get there! In no way will this behind ever be in a thong or see a bikini but my first purchase was a PINK hoodie. I adore it. It was a small fortune but I got 15% off. First bra was $50 than yesterday I got 2 for $50 and they fit just as well and are pretty. Now, the skin under these lovely garments isn't so lovely but you know what? You live once! Go for it. I know you getting ready for surgery may have doubts...don't, everything will be okay. To those of you with new sleeves...you'll be at VS in a year I bet. C'mon ladies, it's a new challenge. It's the VS challenge. Even if it's for a pair of cute panties. Go!!!

I've had 2 women who I view as small/average who've offered me clothes than say "I don't think they'll fit you, your smaller than me!" What a shocking, thrilling experience. Man I must carry my weight well because I'm so not their size and definitely not their weight. I'm guessing I'm at least 30 lbs heavier.

No it's not dismorphia. I know what $I look like and weigh but I distribute my weight well. My bmi is 31.1, almost overweight!

I'm 13 mths post op. Sometimes I can eat a whole one. Sometimes half, sometimes a few bites. It's no big deal.

I think I buy dannon light and fit with no sugar, Greek. I agree about it being a liquid, stop greeting, you're fine!!!

Mines 5 mins before, 30 minutes after... HATE IT!!!

Not giving coffee up. I don't drink decaf.

Amen! I take small sips due to I have swallowing issues sometimes with my neurological disease.

They think they're too BIG for me now, lol.

My nut said as long as I have no gas I'm fine using a straw. I drink coffee thru a straw too.

My mom passed almost 2 weeks ago. I'm drinking enough but my appetite is horrible. I had a boiled egg yesterday. Those of you that have suffered the death of a loved when will I get my appetite back? Back on the treadmill tomorrow. Maybe that'll help?

I finally ate yesterday. Some friends took me grocery shopping and took me to dinner. I could only eat a couple bites but that's progress! Thank you both for your kind words and prayers. It means so much, hugs.

I'm so very sorry you lost a child. How very heartbreaking.

FINALLY a beautiful day in Michigan. I wore a new pair of shorts and didn't feel at all self conscience.

My arms are huge and baggy but I'm rocking the tank tops anyways!
