    June Surgeries Updates!

    I had surgery 6/20 and I'm down 62 lb. Prob would be more if I upped the exercise, but I'm good with slow and steady. Increasing protien helps me a lot. I'm the opposite of you..weight is coming off of my stomach, but thigh are still big. So far so good.

    Stall

    My suggestions are to track calories and protien. Up the protien and it should help. And stay of The damn scale for a while

    Acne

    Yes! I'm 2.5 mos out and I've had it since about 5 weeks. Horrible. Definitely due to hormones.

    Cheap Date?

    Moscato doesn't make you dump? It's so sweet.

    Alcohol?

    I have made what my husband refers to as 'ghetto martini' crystal light and vodka...it definitely metabolizes differently after surgery so I would try at home first:)
