No game

Ok, yep, I'm a "feeler" When I lay down I like feeling where my undies rest on my hip bones.. Now I look like the perv....

Hey don't be talking crap about big bones! I happen to suffer from that condition... It's from my German and Portuguese heritage. We are a very stout people

It's best to ask your surgeon they all have different ideas on this. For instance my surgeon made me crush or pour (from the capsule) my medication into a spoon with jello or yogurt for the first month or so.

If you stick with protein while traveling it shouldn't be to bad. Lunch and dinner just make it protein dense. Even for breakfast, I'd rather have a plain Greek yogurt, or an omelette? than cereal or protein bar... But for me those things are the devil I don't lose weight if I depend on them.

Nope, brows are still intact

I love the "little" things that keep us going! Around here they call that a NSV (non scale victory) but I call it a good day I would say go As but they don't need the help, And I'm a giants fan

Thanks guys sweetums pretty new picture! See we all stress about vacation but we've all so far have come through them unscathed. So FYE and Georgia you girls have a good time too and all will work out!

Thanks for updating! Glad you guys are doing well

Look at you!!! You look great! And 93 pounds in 9 months on top of it? That's an awesome loss Nicole! Proud of you

Oh for sure fiddle! Rainy weather makes me feel snuggly and cozy! And I want to put on big baggy sweaters shelter in place and feed myself comfort type foods to match the coziness. I don't know. Maybe in a past life I was a squirrel or bear, and liked to load up on food to get me through the winter....

Yay!!! Good going girlie!

No thank you....

Ok the weirdest thing... Oh first fast day yesterday, I did good 450 calories! Until I made fresh guacamole for the family Yep just a few chips and guacamole and there went my fast up to 551 0_o But, the weird thing I stepped on the scale a little while ago and I saw a number that confused me? I must admit I was kind of day dreaming when I stepped on it and not really concentrating on what I was doing. 160? I really didn't understand what that number meant..Was I up? was I down? I had to step off and regroup and step on again. 160! OMG I'm down Laura that's down! So I guess I stuck that one pound and added another Sorry for the long post for 2 pounds but.... Well you guys know

I'll bite, How??

Feed! Haha! About the box! And congratulations on the pants! Juniors? You know they make those small I hear you on the vacation thing, I went through it a month ago. It was a little stressful at points because I felt like I was eating a lot (I was) But the damage was minimal. When you get home the track is there to get back on.

Happy birthday!

**** I don't know after seeing that! Maybe if they give me an IV full of mezcal the minute I crossed the border!!

I've never let my school interfere with my education. Mark Twain The fact of the matter is we are all human. We make mistakes on a daily basis! Life is short...we are fat.... And we can't spell! I don't know about you, but I'm working on the not being fat thing, spelling can wait or should I say weight

I will say some of us can though... The new version he's talking about is still in the works.

Ok this is why plastics scare the **** outta me! http://www.verticalsleevetalk.com/topic/89528-july-26-plastics-updates/#entry933329 Oh and sarsar, I do have gray but not a lot. In life if we were standing face to face trust me you would see it!

Everything you described is normal. The first week or two is hard, you just had major surgery, They shoved a tube down your throat that's why swallowing everything hurts, and cut burned stabled and sewed your stomach back together that's why you feel sick to your stomach. It gets better! But yes it takes time. Hang in there.

Sending you guys good thoughts today!

Hey sarsar, how are those lunges going?
