Random Question On Facials/microdermabrasion
L Belle posted a topic in Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery
Ok this isn't related to WLS or anything but has anyone here ever had microdermabrasion? I have been wanting it done, just wondering what it was like and if it had good results or not. There is a good deal on Groupon for a Med Spa here, just wondering if it was worth it or not. -
How about some NSVs!?!?

I finally found out what that secret was that Victoria has! Lol. That and I am at the point right now where I can shop in the regular and plus size sections, twice the clothes to pick from !! -
The shedding has started....not the lbs, but the HAIR...
L Belle posted a topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Ughhhh, my hair has started shedding. Hopefully since my hair is so dang thick, it won't be noticeable. Been getting in as much Protein as possible and taking Biotin 2x a day. Any other suggestions. Has anyone used Nioxin Shampoo/Conditioner?? -

What size are you now?
L Belle replied to michelecaples's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
When I started I was 26-28 pants and 3-4x tops, surgery in October. Right now, 20 pants and 1-2x tops. Feels great!! -
Good luck today!! Your life is about to change for the better, there will be ups and downs, but just go with the flow. The ride may be bumpy, but when you get to the destination it's pretty freakin' awesome!!

Weight loss and stalling
L Belle replied to Jbaz777's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Just look at all you have accomplished in 6 months! 100LBS, girl that is awesome!! Just clear your mind, try a protein shake week or a liquid diet week, see if that helps. I know stalls are frustrating, but they're gonna happen, just go with the flow, you've come so far. -
I started back on coffee about 6 weeks out. My Nutritionist said caffeine is ok, just in moderation since it is a diaretic (however you spell it). I have one cup of coffee (regular, not unleaded) a few times a week. I got a Kureg for Christmas with a box of Kcups, but I think once those are used up I will switch to decaf. And I do use sugar free french vanilla or hazelnut creamers and splenda in mine, and it is just yummmm.

My first month or so after surgery, my sleep was off. I would wake up more often thru the night. I am 3 months out and sleep pretty well now. I have "upped" (is that a word lol) my workouts now, so I do sleep alot better. I think it just takes your body/brain a while to adjust to everything.

I was a 46C, right now I'm a 42C, but could probably go down another band size, just don't want to spend the money yet lol.

Isn't it great to put you hands on your hips and actually feel your waist and hips. lol I do it all the time just to make sure it's not my imagination! -

I stalled around 1month out, don't worry it will come off. It is different for everyone. Don't get discouraged, just keep doing what you're doing.

I am 3 months out, when I drink one first thing in the morning I feel a little sick, but not to bad. -
