Frustrated! Eat This, Not That....
Enerfina replied to rohnk's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
now dont rush into conflusion even i, am feeling ur pressure to losing weight fast... i felt some what like regretting when i woke up from surgery on the fifth of march, n when i threw up blood clots from my mouth as i was making my first walk down the hall.. n when i had to stay an extra day because i could not even get ten oz of liquid through out the day.. so dont regret because u have come so far, and are losing weight.. try to follow the plan that ur nutritionist laid of for you, everybody is different, different doctors with different ways of approching and doing things. its my fouth day and i am totally lost, i am still sipping on my soup that i started around 12, n still got about 2 table spoons left.. n trying to chew my vitamins while trying to take in as much protein cus i dont want the little hair that i have to be gone.. and i am a girl by the way lol.. i need my hair to stay in put lol.. dont limit ur self to water n soup cus then u will really, really feel like u hate or regret ur decision.. remember its not a diet, or something temporary its a life style change, stick with what u feel comfy with, and talk to your doctor and nutritionist.hope this helps.. -
i say milk it, as in milk of magnesia.. plus it helps a little with gas..

quick question, just got sleeved so i don't know about how much such n such, but shouldn't u only eat 4oz at a time no more? i have a friend who says he also eats 6oz of Greek yogurt... shouldn't it be just 4 oz at meals n between meals at a time? for the rest or how does it work ...sry if i am switching up ur post dear.. -

Emotions Days Before Surgery
Enerfina replied to 1Bumblebee's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
ur normal girl, i was even considering canceling the surgery because of the negative unsupported family members i was around, but i breath n went forward with it, it was hard because i was thinking about food n how it really does affect my mood n whole, its an addiction! n its always the bad food that we think about because it taste so good.. so ur ok to think that way before surgery time will fly n food is always is going to be there just in other forms, n this time its our choice whether we eat the right way, and do the right things so chill out n think about the positive out comes of ur surgery n why r u doing it.. Blessings -
your in my prayers girl!!! Blessings !!

Enerfina replied to crossedpaws's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
i also gained weight during my six month evaluation, and the week before my pre op liquid diet i went to all of my favorite restaurants and gorged away, not too much but just to remember the taste hmmm lol i went to taco bell had a a big chalupa with extra sour cream, a taco bell grande with extra group beef, i went to mc donalds had me a big mac, went to wendys had a bacon cheese burger n a dollar ice cream smoothie... man let me not continue i dont want to activate anyones hunger lol.. i did this before my liquid diet so dont do it after wards cus then whats the point.. i just got sleeved on monday the 5 still at the hospital since my sleeve is inflamed so i can only drink around 2.5 -3.0 oz at a time.. good luck girl n post away! -
i got some from my local target, dont know how they taste like but their are multi flavored so i hope they do taste like smarties lol.. ooh walgreens just had a by one get the other 50 percent off so that would of been good.. also cvs.

I went to church today, asking God for forgiveness of all my wrong doings, not of last past weeks but of everything, even if he forgave me in the past. But this Sunday was different from other Sundays. It was and is my last Sunday of being a "Fat Chick" it was going to be the last time people come up to me saying "your gaining weight again," instead of minding their own business.. lol Calm down Christian girl lol... so i asked God to guide me, and if i was making the right decision, that he would be there will me guiding the surgeon and his crew, to bless their hands for success! that if anything, i want to be in his glory! Guys when i tell you God spoke to me! I felt his presence and tears just started running through my face, my hands were raised high, and i cried thank you lord, thank you lord because he had answered me!.. no one in the church knows about my surgery, not even the pastor.. I am calmer that i now know that God is always with me, and will be there in that room with me, with his angels around me. So i am ready.. Today i went and bought two sleeping gowns for after surgery, and comfy sleepers.. and a make up bag lol.. My fridge is all pimped out with protein drinks, isopure lol i hope it taste good.. with already mixed crystal light, more jello's lol.. still got some protein shakes from my pre op, about a week worth now that my belly will no longer be hugeee. i also have some soups and other recommended items that i got from this forum Thank you all. got my gas x my vitamins , i am pretty much set for 2 weeks, nah maybe 3 cuz i bought oat meal and cream of wheat.. for my 3 week phase.. so at 6:30 am i have to be at the hospital, right now i am preparing my with me bag, which my mom is going to bring after the surgery.. i am currenlty looking at my first goal jeans which i had for a year now,, size 8 lol lets see how long it will take em to fit.. yawn... sleepy.. let me get going wow two weeks past by so fast, just the other day i was readying someone else's blog about them having their surgery n me couldnt wait for my approval date lol n Gracias Senor !! Thank You Lord, my time is here!! good night folks see you on the losers bench!! Post op weight 245 my highest weight 247 lowest weight 197 on dec 2010 2 week liquid diet, suppose to lose 17 pounds lost 15 current weight 230.2 goal weight 135-140 !! sweet

through out my six month nutritional visits instead of losing i was gaining, the nervousness of not being able to eat what i want made me eat what i want, but as soon as they put me on a two week nutritional liquid diet so far i have lost 15 pounds i have two more pounds to sit my 17lb goal for pre op, on monday march 5 yay! n i worked out 4 times within those two weeks. hope that helps
