Where do you get these supplements? Can you buy them anywhere?

chrome you can get in any health store...sometimes even the pharmacy next to the vitamins...as for the DIM, i am not sure i get it from my chiro who gets it from a naturopath.

They do Cool Sculpting (http://www.coolsculpting.com) around here which looks to be similar. The lady at the spa place thinks highly of it but I know she is biased. I have really not considered any of those body things at this time but I been thinking more about my face. Losing the weight is making a few of my smile lines (I don't have wrinkles!) a bit more prominent.

Eversince i lost the weight, my skin legs of course i loosen...and so we now see that i have HUGE varicose veins. So this week i had taken an appointment to get ride of them. When i got there the dr refuse to perform the injections, he checked my veins with ultrasound or something and saw that i had a vasculary problem starting around the pelvic area...so now he refers me to the hospital for surgery. Just another example of the saying , when the Water level of a river lowers, thats when you can start seeing the rocks.

It should be fine, the problem is just that in the public system this will take a long time before they get to my turn...

Same. I have had to stop buying them. I did buy some of the Quest vanilla Protein Powder. I have added it to a few things to make them "better bads"

What an awful month...its my worse so dar, gain 2lbs, lose 2lbs....bottom line i am up to my old tricks, not moving and munching all the time... Need a chocolate fix everyday..chrome does not work.

So i am a bit freaking out. Either it´s seasonal depression and beach therapy will fix me up, or i need a good pyschologist to fix my eating habits and living habits and learn how to desl better with stress and such.

I am so tires of having to improve all the time in all the fields of my life.

Be a better mom, be a better wife, be healthier, be a better employee, be a better person.....well fuck why is it never good enough for anybody, everytime i improve the Quest for more just continues.

You know if youn put a frog in a pot of Water and then turn on the heat. It will stay in the boiling water and cook there. But if you try to put a frog straignt in boiling water, its never gonna let you.

I dont know what i am talking about, i am just in a pissy mood....vacation starts wenesday...it better be all i hope it will be

I think that's called the slimes? I've never experienced it but others on this board have.

I too need to breakup with Quest bars.... Great source of Protein , but not to have all the time

I had a month where I didn't drop weight... I didn't gain, but in this game not losing feels like gaining because our " honeymoon " period is almost over! I started slipping back into bad habits ... I went back and looked at my pre surgery pics ..129 pounds ago, and that gave me the kick in the ass I really needed again

We all got the way we were because of crap in our heads... We need to continue working on that stuff every day to be successful... It will always be a struggle for me !

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
