Crossed over a few "speedbumps" this past week!



Recommended Posts

I know it sounds silly, but I felt the need to post this. I don't even know if "speedbumps" is an accurate phrase, hence the quotation marks.

1. Last week at my son's back to school night, I sat in a high school desk.... without having to squeeze in, or even having my belly rub against the desk. I was actually quite comfortable.

2. I went to the county fair on Sunday and went right through the turnstile. No need to go through thw stroller gate. No need to get on my tippy toes so my behind could go over it. No need to suck it in so I could squeeze through. It was like finally beating my nemesis.

3. This morning I cross my arms and realized they were crossed over my mid section! Usuallu, when I cross my arms, they sit on top of my boobs, but now they are under my boobs. I don't know how long I've able to do that!

That is wonderful!! Just reading all of your NSV's brought a sense of happiness to my heart, as I know what it feels like to not be able to do all of those things! I couldn't hardly fit in the high school desks when I was in high school! I haven't had the sleeve yet but I love reading all of these wonderful NSV's! Congrats girl!!!

      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.

      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.
