I believe you made the best decision in your life. your still early in your journey so you have to get rid of that mindset. Stop looking at all the things you cant have. be creative when it comes to preparing meals with the foods you can have. also never compare your journey to someone's else especially Oprah lol. Stay encouraged its all uphill from here

Sorry. Not trying to be offensive by any means. This is why I don't and won't be weighing myself (I'll let the doc do this). Stalls will happen. Focus on how good you feel and how the clothes are feeling bigger, etc. Focus on doing what the doc has given you to do. Put your mind to other matters than numbers on a scale. Save yourself the stress and headache of worrying. Many blessings on your journey!!!

Great feedback thank you

I have a nose/mouth mask because I can't breathe through my nose at all. You should be able to adjust the humidity levels and a heated tube really helps.

You're welcome keep me posted when you go to your orientation and start your options class Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Hello folks, I am new and so excited to have a way to connect to others going through the same thing as me. I had my consultation with my surgeon on 12/30/16 and didn't get an appointment with my nutritionist until 1/19/17. So far I have had my blood work completed and sent to the surgeon, my gastroenterologist consultation is 3/16/17 and my sleep study appointment is next week. I have yet to set up my psychologist/psychiatric appointment. I feel like the actions of having weight loss surgery are so far away but I know that it will get her before I know it. Q: Do you need both a psychiatric and psychological approval? I have this feeling that I need both but I'm not sure. I am so excited for to next months as I prepare for surgery. I look forward to connecting with you and hearing about your journeys! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

@mylighthouse you were so so helpful!! Thank you!! I'm gonna try and choke down that protein drink! Hahaha!! I know it's important but I just can't stomach it. I was hoping I could get it from my food sources alone but just like you said, I don't think I'm eating all 60 grams. [emoji20] I'm gonna try & up my fluids to the 64+ & get that protein shake down whether I like it or not. Hahaha! Thank you! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
