    Celebrate Vitamins

    A couple childrens chewables and a calcium supplement is what i need. but this sample pack has all kinds of stuff beyond that...i guess those are optional?

    i did sort them into what was on the package, the NUT gave me a run down on the basics, but not which of this brand i should take.

    when it starts to hurt, i drink some water and put on a support cami. it seriously helps

    Yay!

    so...im 7 days out. feeling wonderful- the first day when i came out of surgery, i started to think "wtf have i done" cuz it hurt lol. but a couple days later, i was good to go. learning a lot about techniques to help with any pains i have, learning a lot about others too. went to the store, avoided the no-no stuff (cookie and chip aisle) but did happen to look down it from the main aisle...what i noticed was a VERY distinct difference between the kinds of people on each kind of aisle, something i never noticed before. i dont judge, but i found myself looking at those in the healthier aisle and going "i am working towards THAT kind of body". and im having cravings for weird vegetables ive never really wanted before... did they remove part of my brain as well??? lol got my first round of pics done since the day of surgery and i am simply shocked. shocked is the only word I have for this feeling I am posting them in my album on my profile

  16. i wear a Sweet Nothings cami support thing from Walmart. works pretty good. esp helps keep everything still and gives the biggest incision the support it needs to not hurt at all

    Post Op- Day 3

    hmmm ok. i can deal for a few more days. It was just odd to me that only one incision hurts lol. One of the incisions is RIGHT where the front of my bra sits, so I am in my jammies for a few days
  25. How many ladies here are in their mid 20s, and are around 230/220 and have lost a bit of weight? i am wondering how likely it is that i will have skin hanging everywhere lol...
