No game 14,437 Posted December 30, 2013 At 18 months out you should be fine. I've seen a far amount of sleevers use them after the 6th month mark Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

loveelaura 52 Posted December 30, 2013 Omg I tried those in my shake and almost threw up! I'm still pre-op though. Is there a trick that I missed out on? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Comfy_Blue 285 Posted January 2, 2014 I saw Chia seeds at GNC. What's the advantage to using them? Do they make you feel more full or give a nutrition boost of some sort? The ones I saw were really expensive, like $40 for a small bag, so I wasn't will to try them until I knew more about. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gomekast 559 Posted January 2, 2014 Omg I tried those in my shake and almost threw up! I'm still pre-op though. Is there a trick that I missed out on? A little goes a long way! Maybe teaspoon max to begin with until you adjust to them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LouiseC 1,031 Posted January 4, 2014 Omg I tried those in my shake and almost threw up! I'm still pre-op though. Is there a trick that I missed out on?you need to let the seeds soak for at least 15 minutes to soften, otherwise it is like eating sand! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
