Anybody else notice that when you have a craving now it's more intense? Like right now I am seriously craving some deviled eggs, and I'm craving them so bad I'm half tempted to stop on the way home and get the already cooked hard boiled eggs so that when I get home I can just whip it up and eat it. I curb my cravings with ice cold crystal light slushies, but man when they hit I feel like I'll gnaw my arm off if I don't get it!

Oh most definitely I can and I will, but I'm at work right now and access is kind of limited

Tell me to butt out if you want but I'm curious, where did you start and where are you now? I know you're 92lbs down, but are you within normal ranges? And you say you're eating crap - can you be a little more specific? You may not need to make drastic changes, but maybe if we had a better idea of what your typical day is like food-wise we may be able to help you tweak a bit to get you working your sleeve again. Hang in there mama, we've all been there

I went from a size 9W to an 8 1/2 regular at 3 months out - All the seriously cute heels I had from before I got pregnant that I haven't been able to wear since I was about 6mo pregnant now fit my feet again! COMFORTABLY! Unfortunately my body isn't used to heels anymore so I have to ease my way back into them, but I can't freaking wait to wear them all the time again! I effing love my heels!

I do the monthly injections... Which reminds me that it's time to refill my prescription...

What has been your proudest NSV yet? For me, I can't decide if it was finally finding my collar bones (this weekend, woohoo!) or fitting into my pre-pregnancy clothes last weekend... Right now they're tied.

Everyone's experience is different, but the one thing you need to keep in mind is that the less you have to lose, the slower it comes off. If you're expecting a dramatic weight loss like you see on these boards, you may have an unrealistic expectation of just how quickly you should be losing. Something else important to remember is that while your scale may not reflect a smaller number, things are happening to your body that you simply cannot understand. Soon enough you'll start to notice their effects, but I wouldn't worry about it right now.

I have no desire to drink anything, let alone water! Although I will admit that after a full day at the beach yesterday I was chugging (yes, you read right) my aquafina. Pre-op I carried around a 1 liter of aquafina and refilled it at least twice throughout the day. Now I carry around a 16oz Nestle Pure Life with crystal light and I'm lucky if I empty it once, let alone twice. You're not alone.

Thanks! I'm thinking it's probably not the tryptophan since it happens with just about everything I eat, but dehydration could have something to do with it. I think I'm gonna call my surgeon. Thanks again!

I answered your question above

The Friday confessions were such a big hit last week and all the way through Monday that I thought I'd open it up for the entire weekend. My flame free confession? I had 4 glasses of wine last night and I smoked (because I was drinking of course) The really bad part is that when I started drinking I had only had about 20oz or so all day, so about half of my Fluid intake yesterday was alcohol. Mmmmmm Reisling

I will be SUPER busy this weekend between working, prepping for my upcoming move, family coming into town, and my latest Pinterest project (Read: super cute wall mounted mason jar herb garden) so this will be our weekend discussion topic. So let's hear those dirty little secrets! As always this thread is flame retardant - Have fun!
