  1. Best of luck. I would suggest working on changing some habits while you wait for your sugery. Try chewing really well and taking smaller bites. Also try putting your fork or spoon down between bits. Dont drink when you eat or til 30-60 minutes after a meal. Also make sure to stop all carbonated drinks. Starting now will help you be successful.

    firming your skin

    Yep it does suck. My doctor just says you will or will not have sagging skin. I will say I have been using nuance products on my face and people are starting to compliment me. I have a lot of wrinkles from weight loss.

    Fill question...

    Hard to tell what your doctor is going to do. Just make sure to ask a lot of questions to find out how his after care is going to be. I would start a list of questions to take with you. Keep us posted.

    Will this help me?

    They band does not Make you lose weight it helps you lose weight. It will not stop you from eating in most cases. You still have to work hard on your self control and making healthy choices. The band when properly filled will help you feel satisfied for longer periods of time. The calories you intake along with the food you choose and exercise are what makes you lose.
  16. Yeah I agree muscle weighs more then fat but burns calories faster. Make sure you are checking your measurements and how your clothes fit.
  17. Hey I also use Blu. I get them in 0 nicotine and they have a lot of awesome flavors. Free shipping on online orders and life time warranty. http://www.blucigs.com/

    Help Please. Need New Exercise Routine.

    I do cardio games on Wii and whenever I go somewhere I park at the end of the parking lot. If there are stairs I climb the stairs. Just start making small changes and ease your way. Course walking always a good option if you are able to.

    paleo diet?

    I think the Paleo is hard to manage on half cup servings but little by little I find myself changing some of the things I prepare and eat by paying attention to what IP does. I am sure you can friend her on My fitness pal to see her meals. She also often posts her meals in our recipe group. If you like to join just friend me at hely lb in face book. I have started a Paleo folder of recipes. It is a work in process.

    Just Ignore It!!

    It does not happen to me as much now, but if I think I have head hunger I really do try to redirect my brain by doing something or go for a walk. I also try to drink water and that often helps.
