From Tick to PRUNE?



Recommended Posts

I associate my current looks as a TICK. Small head huge body. I CAN NOT wait to change that, I am however, worried that because of all this excess weight I have let myself gain will my face look old a wrinkly when I lose a 100+ pounds.

Do you feel you all look older since you weight loss? I don't mind the trade off for better health but I might need to start a Face Lift fund for my self.

A few months after surgery, my face developed very fine wrinkles. I looked like I was 100 years old. I am 66 years old so I should look old but not that old. My wife suggested I use Bio-Oil (available at CVS). I did and the wrinkles went away. She also had me use African Black Soap. It adds some moisturizers and seems to help.

So in general, I look a lot younger now than before the surgery.

I bought it at Bloomingfoods which is a health food store that focuses on organic foods.

If you look at before and after pictures, you'll see SO many people look younger as they lose weight in their face. I never understood how that happened and here it is, it happened to me too!

Don't worry too much -- moisturize like crazy and just enjoy the transformation!

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
