I'm sorry I won't be able to make it. I have to run my daughter's girl scout cookie booth at that time. Bummer. Jennifer -

I have the Mirena IUD for several reasons including PMA, hormonal headaches, PCOS and heavy bleeding. I get really light periods with the IUD which are so much better than they used to be. The only bad side effect for me is it's causing bad acne. I'm doing have children also.

Gagging through protein shake
Busymomof3 replied to DroppinLikeItsHot's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I've bought some of the sugar free Torani syrups at World Market but I've also ordered on line some of the DaVinci sf syrups. Orange is good with vanilla to make a creamsicle or the peppermint paddy is good with a chocolate shake for a chocolate mint. I was told not to use straws but the advice about not smelling is a good idea. -
Gagging through protein shake
Busymomof3 replied to DroppinLikeItsHot's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
If the ready to drink shakes are too thick you can add skim milk to dilute it and add extra Protein. I use a lot of flavored syrups. I found a sugar free eggnog flavor that I add to vanilla Premier Protein and its just like an eggnog shake from McDonalds. -
I've been getting B-12 injections for years before my surgery because I have pernicious anemia. Personally, I've never noticed an increase in energy or appetite from them.

How do you take pills!
Busymomof3 replied to NewMeLinZ's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
My anti depressant and thyroid pills were small enough that I could still swallow them. Anything else was liquid for two weeks. After that I split the larger pills with a pill splitter or crushed them. -

So is it just down to Fawn and I today? I'm deciding whether or not to go now. -
I have PCOS and Hashimoto's also. Weight loss went pretty quickly for me when stay on plan and workout regularly. I got an IUD a few months after surgery which dramatically reduced my periods and PSOS symptoms.

A swimsuit. I no longer refuse to be seen in a swimsuit and can get in the pool with my kids. -
Worried about prescriptions - antidepressants
Busymomof3 replied to DarleneCh's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I was on citalopram and levothyroxine before and after surgery. The pills were small enough that I could swallow with no problems. The bigger pills though I had to split in half. it's a good idea to buy a pill splitter before surgery. -

A couple of time I've put something between my legs to hold and it fell through. -
