Wanna be friends? You know you wanna!
Red_lips_and_confidence replied to Red_lips_and_confidence's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
nope just forums, its not set up like facebook to where your friends have a wall to post...it does alert you when someone whose friends with you changes their status, but no group chats besides the instant messagener at the bottom of the screen -

hey weewer, Yes I added ya as a friend -
So I just started doing yoga for the first time tonight. Not the easiest cause I'm 277 lbs BUT it was very relaxing and I felt so refreshed:) I struggled with some things but I know with time everything will come together:: practice makes perfect:: just wanted to know if any of my fellow sleevers has any advice or links to videos so I can practice ! Also, meditation videos. It would be greatly appreciated!

Any ladies out there have PCOS put your hands up!
Red_lips_and_confidence replied to Red_lips_and_confidence's topic in The Gals' Room
Niquj- I hear ya girl I've been in the same boat it's horrible. I felt alone , I've only had one other friend who's had it so no one vet could truly understand what I'm going through till I found this site. I'm the same way with not being able to have kids.. I'm praying this surgery will work for when I'm ready to have kids. I've been recently dealing with needle like pokes and pains in my ovaries probably 3-5 stabbing pains a day due to my cysts rupturing it sucks. Just thankful I'm not hurtled over in the fetal position in agonizing pain like a few months ago uhg its just getting worse! But man I can't wait to get that approval (should know this week!!!!!) and get this problem under control for once!!!! Feel free to add me if you wanna be friends I can't on my phone -

Oh yeah I totally will! And in all honesty I will probably just walk it anyways, probably be best for me , next year ill jog it My friend who might be going with me had double knee surgery years back and cant run so its the perfect excuse for us to walk it, hey itll take us longer to finish so we will have more time to take it all in and enjoy it! -

Birth Control and Weight Loss
Red_lips_and_confidence replied to new_beginnings_'s topic in The Gals' Room
UHG i did depo while losing weight 2 years ago i lost 30 lbs then it caused me to have my period and spot EVERYSINGLE DAY no joke! I gained all my weight back and then some, along with horrible headaches uhg, worst decision of my life. Im debating on trying to get off birth contro pill l after surgery or not and go "all natural" I just would hate to be off my birthcontrol a month before surgery and after ( my doctor wants me to do so) and gain weight when I get back on...I dont know if I would be better off just using condoms -
