I will be moderating our WLS class/session next month, and I thought I could collate good websites (like this one), for day to day help, recipes, etc..anything that you found works for you... so I would appreciate any and all input from EVERYONE!!! Thanks!

This is very silly, but you know what? We deserve some silly! Silly is carb free!

It was recommended that you have a pillow for the ride home. These are a nice sized pillow for that trip home from the hospital, and I've been using it at my computer desk to protect my tummy. Mine came from a great couple of co-workers, and the other thing I love is that you can get one to suit your personality!

I had a lot of fun shopping for tiny utensils and dishes from Crate & Barrel (I want to make having small portions fun, and the spoon has been great for the liquid stage)

I've been going charm crazy lately. Pandora doesn't have a stomach charm, but this is a big deal, and deserves to be commemorated!

My husband and I would have liked a crescent moon (like my new stomach), but the moon charm had a face on it, and that seemed kinda creepy.
So we improvised with the one called "Speckled beauty," because now my bites are supposed to be that size. It's a nice visual, and a way to stay on track with the small bites.

On a more legit note, I'd encourage people to read their doctor's web sites. My doctor has all of the follow up guides posted on his site, and it's really helpful.
