    Low BMI to Start - Anyone Else?

    I would totally do it and I'd go back to Dr Aceves too. Go for it girl!

    Wearing a Binder?

    Ewww don't wear that! Your wounds need fresh air and to heal. No reason for it!

    OMG I want a beer!

    Mmmm beer is good, just makes you burp way much more after being sleeved. I suppose that's okay for a guy but ya know ... I try to stick to vodka/cranberry

    Dr. Aceves Post Op Diet Question

    Email Nina and she will give you some great ideas. I can't remember what I ate during that stage but I know I would strain a bunch of soups.
  8. The action is what i miss. I truly adore smoking...yes it's odd but it is what it is.

    Oct 8th check in

    October 8th was my 1 year sleeve anniversary so I just wanted to respond and give you all a little update. Next year at this time you will be so skinny! Keep on keeping on your plans! Almonds are great to have as are cheese. I keep a little package of almonds in my purse along with beef jerky. Stalls will happen to the previous poster. Dont' up your calories just keep on keeping on! I stall 3 weeks a month then lose about 5lbs in one week. You will get there. THIS WILL WORK!

    when is it ok to drink alchohol?

    I had some wine about 2 months out. No big deal. Don't over do it and be aware that you will get drunk fast with your sleeve. I've blacked out once and passed out another time. You have to be very careful. Both those episodes were way over 6 months out and had to do with drinking too much too fast.

    GOODBYE to my Mirena??

    Get the copper IUD. I can't have the horomones since I had a bloodclot in 03, and I think that's why they want you off the one you have now. The copper one I still have periods and sometimes they can be heavy but it's no big deal and I LURVE my IUD! BTW From what I've heard the hormones work locally not systemically meaning it doesn't get into your blood stream to affect bloodclots. My Dr didn't seem to agree but ask yours why you can't have it and mention what I just said.
  16. Me tOO! I was cold even when I was fat but now I just freeeeze! Oh well the price of being skinny! Now I can pile on clothes and not look like the Staypuff marshmallow woman!

    Hey you guys...

    You look amazing! How recent is the blue shirt pic?

    Popcorn safe to eat?

    The kernels can get stuck in your suture or staple line which is why it's a no no until 3 months. I'd wait on popcorn and pomgrantes.

    Finalist in Pumpkin Contest

    Thanks everyone! Less than an hour left. Apparently goldfish pumpkin has been offering 4 paid subscriptions to a website for ppl to vote for him. No wonder he jumped from 50 votes to now in the lead. I'm only about 10 behind though

    Hairballs or Hairy Throat???

    Why do I read this as "Hairyballs" everytime it pops up? O.o
  24. SouthernSleever

    First time I'm sharing pics

    Wow! What a transformation! You are doing fantastic!
  25. If you are told by your Dr not to have it then dont but I was able to have a couple sips of pop after a month. I don't buy it and bring it home though, I'm afraid I would slip back into old habits.
