I don't know I was looking online and saw a place called motherhood...if I find something out I will let you know

Hopefully someone can help us if not maybe I will see if the maternity belt or tummy sleeve will help me...not sure if anyone has tried them..

bump,,any help

Amen this is soooooooooooo true........I must be the exception still have the same cravings like before

Congrats I can't wait for my scale to move again currently at a stall also....good for you

I could cry so happy I found this...I am 24 days post op and lost 18lbs the first week and been at a stall every since...I even came on my cycle about 10 days after surgery and about 12 days before I had surgery to my cycles were almost 20 days apart... I Don't know what to do I am trying not to get discouraged...I am still having pains especially I assume where my hernia was and also on my sides...so when I see ppl are exercising I am like I do good to walk....I wish us all luck I won't lie I am hoping to lose 100lbs before Oct....I know ppl say don't get your hopes up but like I said I am hoping..I didn't care for the nut my doctor has she was no help before my surgery and didn't help me on my journey...sorry but true..good luck to all and any suggestions are welcomed

That's the thing every doctor and nut is different...boy to bad we can't all be closer to the same page

Sorry to hear what happen to you...hopefully it will all grow back thicker...I can deal with it being shorter but not thinner...I am emotionally preparing myself to cut it off if it gets bad...good luck to all

Not sure if this is true but I did hear some ppl say once they up their protein that their hair started back to grow...this scares me since my hair isn't thick

oh wow hope all is well

Happy to know that I am not the only one who suffers with food...being 2 weeks post op..I have done a couple of things I regret but I know its a learning experience....I take it one day at a time and pray and cry and cry and cry..its not easy but can't wait till it does get easier...thanks love ya That is the entire point of the sleeve. To give you time to learn how to conquer the addiction of food. Working out the reasons why in your head, will help you work your body... This tool gives you that opportunity to learn how to eat to live not live to eat.... So I do believe in treats as well. Always have..With balance and moderation....We are never going to totally beat the addiction. We will fight until our last breath. The point of weight loss surgery is to improve your health. By educating yourself about food and all the aspects we use it for. And then changing the way we see it..... I will be a food addict the rest of my life..But I work every day to find the balance and moderation needed to reach my goals and stay there......I kinda like the control in this way now..It used to be I had control of food in my world and nothing else. Now I control what goes in my body...I love seeing food left on my plate and carefully examining how my sleeve is acting toward it.....Amazing machines aren't we all!

Thanks for the response....I can't wait to go visit

Hello all Texans I will visiting Houston, San Antonio...can you guys tell this single female what to do..I am looking at possibly relocating to Texas to get away from the cold bitter winters...yes I know of the hot summers I was down there 5 years ago to visit and I was probably the only idiot riding around in July with the windows down enjoying the hot heat.....it could be because I get cold easily but doesn't matter where you live you have to learn how to adapt... If anyone in these areas would like to meet up I WOULD LOVE TOOOOOOOOOOO...I enjoy meeting other people but you will have to be open minded, love to laugh and enjoy learning different things..

Hi I had my surgery about 2 weeks ago and lost almost 20lbs since I got back home for some reason I ended up being more than I went in I assume from the liquids......good luck

Eat it and enjoy...sorry I have no control

Good luck I completely understand...I had a family member take care of me and brought all the bad foods I didn't have in my house and I ate some crackers sorry I know it was bad being only 6 days out but they tasted sooooooooooooo good ( I wanted to buy stock) to bad I am not one of those people who didn't crave food....just looking at commercials made me want to eat...if you have friends or whatever just get out of the house or throw any bad food away.....

I agree Pure Protein first and then Quest Bars

I completely understand and its hard and have I cheated yes I have....I had a couple of crackers and then I had pudding a couple of hours laters,,,,its not easy for you or for me..I am only 11 days preop and I would like to say it gets easier so far I try to drink water and eat popsicles....good luck

Don't force yourself to drink a lot I was trying to get 48 ounces of water in when I first got out and told by my doctor nurse not to force m...well wish I had known this from day one...they just kept telling me to drink drink drink...I have an apt next week to see my doctor...Take it easy and good luck

Congrats and look at how much weight you lost...looking good

I don't think I read it here but Calban 2000 diet pills my mom bought me when I was about 14....you had to order from tv

Good luck...I know I am trying hard being only 5 days preop to get about 500 calories in...my mom keeps saying your wasting food...but I am tired of protein shakes..broth, pudding but not popsicles...

I am 5 days pre op and let me tell you ...I am still afraid that things may go wrong.....I am still in pain when I move and sometimes I worry that my staples or incisions may pop when I try to get up....I really hope you are feeling better...I got up that night and walked myself I didn't wait for the nurse or anyone to tell me...my nurse was surprised that I wanted to do it....by if your able to take GAS X they did help me plus walking a couple of times around the house a day. Good luck

Unfortunately you may have to make your own......have you tried googling to see if there is anything out their

This is my first time talking about this on here but try your hardest not to cheat THROW IT AWAY...I let the pressure of things going on in my family and at work almost cost me not having surgery on Wedes....my doctor was PISSED and he should've turned me away because the day before I cheated....I AM NOT PROUD OF MYSELF...but I am working hard to follow things now. Good luck
