Lol! I like the way she said it...and it is soooooooo true -
I did two shakes a day and one lean cuisine for dinner and lots and lots of water. When I needed something extra I had broth. Hope that helps and good luck.

I defiantly get your anxiety cause I also struggle with it, but I will say I did not have any anxiety about the surgery I was way to excited. I think I have more now, just thinking about how much to eat how much not to eat when and what to eat am I going to mess this up..............and it just keeps going. I guess all I can do is take it one day at a time. I do believe this was the best choice I could have ever made for myself. I do wish you the best. Feel free to ask any questions I am kinda an open book

2 Weeks Post Op. Down 13 Pounds
tobethin30 replied to lap_of_luxury's topic in Gastric Plication Surgery Forum
I am 6 days out and down 20lbs 13lbs pre-op super exciting lol! I am still having bathroom issues lol meaning I visit it way to much. Today I think I felt hungry when I woke up so I made myself a slim fast shake and had about 3oz and that helped...I am having a hard time drinking enough because I am so used to taking big drinks and I have done it a couple of times scene surgery (that is not fun) So I tend to not drink at all......All of this is such a learning curve....I love hearing everybody's stories -
