    Before And After Pics

    I did experience a bit of hair loss at about 6 months, but it only lasted a short time. And I started with a lot of hair to begin with so I guess it did not affect me as much as it can others.....

    Happy 1Yr Surgiversary To Me!

    Awesome! You put it all into words perfectly!!
  4. Ok, so I finally had a new headshot done for work, and I decided to put it next to the old one, wow! I am very pleased with my progress, I had surgery on November 1, 2011. No looking back, I just wish I had done it sooner! YAY SLEEVE!!

    "you Look Tired"

    I would ask how far out you are, and also have you had blood tests done yet to test all your levels of all those vitamins and minerals our body needs....You may need more supplementation, or maybe you had surgery recently and really have not fully recovered yet?

    Sugar Free Ice Tea Packets

    I would think caffeine is minimal, I use them all the time too. I love the Arnold Palmer one that is half iced tea half lemonade

    What To Take For Period

    My doc actually said I can take Advil (ibuprofen) once a month for menstrual pain.....she said as long as I am not taking it every day that once in a while is fine as long as I am not suffering with any acid reflux. I totally trust my Dr. she is the best, but that being said you must follow your own docs instructions I guess!
  8. I have had lots of those moments, rest assured that there is not 2 lbs. of fat in 2 glasses of sangria. You are only bloated, so just drink lots of water, get your protein in, and you will be fine!! Believe me, I have been there !!

    80 Pounds Down! New Pic!

    Totally awesome!! You were right about where I was pre-op, and your goal is right about where I want to get as well! You look amazing and truly are an inspiration. I was sleeved Nov. 1, 2011 and have lost 62 lbs. so far...heres to getting to goal!!
  10. I put my protein powder (French vanilla flavor) in my coffee with a dash of flavored creamer, shake it up and it's like a latte! That way I get my jolt of caffeine and protein at the same time.....

    Greek Yogurt - You're Fav?

    Oikos Key Lime is pretty good, but I have tried them ALL and the only one I can tolerate on a regular basis is Chobani. My favorite flavors are Apple Cinnamon, Peach and Black Cherry. I find all the others to taste horrible!!
  12. I had the smell thing too after surgery, it lasted about a month or so. I would literally have to run out of an aisle in a store if there was someone who had the tiniest bit of an odor, and forget about food smells!! It did go away for the most part, I am almost 5 months out now and only experience it occasionally. I could not even be near my own family if they had eaten something with garlic!
  13. Sorry, not buying the posts from Sallynew.....why can't any of her messages get delivered? I would let this string of posts go away.

    When Can I Have Coffee?

    I drank full caffeine at about 20 days, and continue to do so....My doc and nutritionist both said it is ok. I put my protein powder in it (pure protein french vanilla), shake it up in a shaker and it comes out like a latte. I add a little flavored creamer too. It's delish, and I get my protein in! I am 4 months out and 55lbs. down started with BMI of 40.
