I use listerine strips. They come in a smal pack and melt on your tounge. Easy to carey in my wallet. sugar free mints should be fine. I had seen someone post that tic tacs are now like a bowl of candy.

Wow, It seems that the June 2nd sleevers have been missing in action. I hope all is going well.

My husband took photos of me the day of surgery and every month after. I track in my fitness pal. I love to see my progress chart.

How common is it to have issues with relationships with weight loss surgery. My husband has been very insecure lately. He has made comments about me leaving him. I find myself reassuring him constantly. does this go away with time? What can I do to help him with this?

ONDERLAND! such a big goal to celebrate..... Do something special for yourself...

My sister in law takes pleasure in bringing everyone around her down. Her favorite target is me. I was in a very dark place at my highest weight. She loved to talk about me to friends and family members. I use her as my motivation to keep going. I am so happy and living life I don't have time for the toxic people that just can't find their own happiness. My biggest feck her is reaching my goal and running in the race for the cure. I'm doing this in memory of my mother in law and my mother. Can't wait!

Reached a mini goal BMI is now 29 - from morbidly obese to officially OVERWEIGHT!

@@readyforitnow I'm so excited for you. I was also nervous about being a type one diabetic and having sleeve surgery. I'm 3 months and 18 days out. My A1C is now a 5.9 (my Dr is amazed) I use very little insulin and some days no insulin. I have had a few lows. I drink a small shot of orange juice diluted with Water. It brings my blood sugar back up. I have to be careful not to miss meals. I also eat a small amount before I work out and after I get back from the gym. Your diabetic Dr. will help you through the process. Each of us experience all of the changes from surgery differently. For my health it has been the best thing ever. Wishing you well on you're journey Jenn

@@Cassiper I'm so sorry to hear about your situation. Just a quick question. Can you afford financing the surgery?

@@Fox-E @@shortsleeved made a good point. There are good alternatives to have the pizza taste with out the guilt. I hope you find a recipe that will satisfy the craving. On my rough days. I try on the clothing I wore at my highest weight. I pat myself on the back. I know tomorrow is a new day and I press on.

@@chellede I love to try new food. I'm more adventurous these days. Many things that would turn me away in the past I now love. Eggplant Parmesan Portobello Mushroom pizzza Slice of pare, blue cheese topped with a caramelized pecan Crisp Prosciutto wrapped around asparagus egg whites, spinach with cherry tomatoes
