  • I once ate an entire box of Dairy Queen Peanut Buster Bars. And yes, it was during college, though I was on a roadtrip at the time.

  • I don't know about metabolism, but eating smaller, more frequent meals DOES help keep your blood sugar at an even keel. That, in turn, keeps your energy level and mood from crashing midday, and helps keep cravings at bay. It can also be helpful from a psychological standpoint, to know at any given time that it won't be too…

  • Hi everyone, Some of you already know me from the thread we used to keep around here, but it looks like there are a LOT more faces now! My name is Rachael, and I had DS on 6/2/2011. I had considered surgery for several years but I was always too worried about the side effects of RNY. When I read about the DS, I felt like…

  • I started losing hair around 4 months. Now I'm in month 7, and I *think* it's slowing down a bit. Hoping it will start regrowing soon, because my hair was already thin before I started losing it from surgery, thanks to high testosterone levels.

  • I got one a few years ago. Maybe the technology has improved since then, but at the time, it could only do one hair at a time, and it does not work AT ALL the way the professional ones do. It does not eliminate hair under the surface, it only burns off what's above the surface of the skin, and it hurts terribly. It made…

  • I would agree with what others have said: you should increase your ratio of protein to carbs. It's not an exact science -- some folks do better with more carbs, some do better with more protein. If this is how you usually eat and it isn't working, reduce your carbs and increase your protein until it does work. In general,…

  • Protein snacks help keep you satisfied without all the added sugar. One of my favorites is to take the Laughing Cow Light Swiss spread and spread it on a couple slices of deli ham, roll up, and eat. Almonds are high in protein and lower in fat than peanuts. I get some from Sam's Club that have a light coating of cocoa…
