Incredibly well done Deb!! Embrace those happy feelings and the fat that you're embarking upon an exciting new phase of your life, full of benefits and improvements. Great work....keep it up, very well done!!

Good luck tomorrow and wishing you a safe surgery. !!

That is a good mindset. I have been trying to think good thoughts that my liver is shrinking!

Sounds like good advice to me, but I just don't know how to put this on auto-pilot. I am conscious of everything I eat, drink and the physical activity I need to do to get and stay in shape. I still only 3.5 months out from surgery, this healthy lifestyle and change in my body is very new. I guess I worry about slipping back into bad habits and I don't really trust myself unless I am being strict in following my rules (which are not entirely the same as my doctor's rules).

🔼Ahahahahaha🔼 but @Orchids&Dragons explained it perfectly !

Watching Pioneer Woman cooking show and no longer wondering why we are all obese... 😞

I've seen people on here talk about the Psych Eval and questionnaires, but I don't remember any of that. My psychiatrist that I regularly see for Depression signed off on a clearance form for me and I met with the behavioral health person at the surgeon's office for like 15-20 minutes, but I don't really remember anything about questionnaires or worrying. She just wanted to make sure I would be able to follow the diet after surgery and wasn't in denial or unrealistic about my expectations for surgery results.

Yes, you will. I'm 30 days out and had the same trouble as you. I started to feel less pain and nausea just recently. Hang in there it gets better!

Let your smooth self shine forward! You got this vabe!

I just got my 3rd fill last Monday and I feel it now! The first two fills felt a little tight but I was able to eat more than I thought I should be able to. This last fill might be my sweet spot. Hang in there, you're doing fine. It takes a little bit of experimenting to figure it out.
