Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass  |  Lip Balm Addiction
I have been addicted to lip balm since I was 14 years old - and I'm 31. That's a pretty serious addiction. When I was reading on here about what to take to the hospital, lots of you guys said lip balm. You guys have to check this out! I was randomly searching on-line one night almost a year ago and found this amazing lady who sells her homemade lip balm. It's called My Lip Stuff (or MLS) and you can find her at My Lip Stuff - natural lip balm in 400 flavors & homemade bath & body products. Now this lady has at least 500 different flavors  by now (she advertises over 400, but she's added tons since I've known her) and it's AMAZING!!!!!  The flavors are heavenly - you name something, they got it. It's not at all waxy. Very soft and natural feeling. She charges $2 each for most and if you order 8 samples ($16 - and you put the flavors you pick in the comments section), you go to the coupon section for the free balm over $15 purchase and the s/h is $4.50. I just got some holiday special edition balms and for 9 balms it was $20.50. Seriously, even if you're not a 'user', it's worth checking out. I just ordered Easter + Valentines Day Balms - Birch Beer Float, Strawberry Dream Pie, Marshmallow Quacks, Butt Naked, Hugs and Kisses (Blue Raspberry), Coconut Mallow Meringue, Cherries Jubilee, and reg. flavors - Cream Filled Cake and Raspberry Zinger. See what I mean?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!!

Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery. Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.  |

You're welcome, and you won't be disappointed! It's great for when you can't have certain foods, and she even has 'alcoholic' flavors - with no real alcohol, of course! I'm going to be using amaretto sour today. I have like 50 and switch frequently throughout the day. My fave's are apple cider, shamrock shake, eggnog, and strawberry milkshake. It's such a fun addiction!!!!!!

Kim, you seriously should. My previous addiction was to the Blistex DCT in the peach colored tub and I hated using my finger, but everything else was too waxy. This stuff rocks! It's so smooth and the flavors are awesome!!!!!!! Sometimes I don't like them for bed time and she has one called Lickity Lips. It's not flavored, it's like a dollar more, but somehow it's even SOFTER than the regular stuff. And she's such an awesome person. I read her story and she has a 'Live Journal' thing for MLS users and she is the best. Anyway, I'm rambling. When it comes to her and her lip balms all my friends say I'm like a walking billboard and should get a commission, lol (I even got the bumper sticker - it's the only one I've ever put on any car), but I think everyone should have the opportunity to try this stuff!!!!!!!
