  1. WTF! I am on the pre-op diet to shrink my liver and have gained a pound. How is this possible when I am not eating crap. Could the fact I have eaten more protein than I usually would be the issue? I already have low BMI 30, should I stop the pre-op diet? My surgery is Monday.

    Gaining Weight On Pre-Op Diet

    Yes Vampsy, BMI of 30. I have about 40 pounds to lose. Lose being the main word...not gain. Maybe it is just water weight.

    Chewable Protein?

    If you are looking for protein, the Unjury chicken soup is aawesome.
  8. Mariposa73, I think it has to do it BMI. Those with lower BMI don't have to do it as long. I could be wrong but that appears to be the common thread.
  9. The caffeine headache is terrible but it will only last about 3 days.

    Completely Terrified

    Right there with you! My bags are packed, cutest pjs with matching slippers purchased, all the protein a girl could need. I agree with the others if you weren't a little apprehensive it would be strange. Take deep breaths, relax and remember you are about to change your world!

    Wine And Whine Wednesday!

    You can always tell your co-worker that you are stalled but you are sure when you take a big **** a couple of pounds will come off and you can keep her posted, hee hee
  13. Super new to the forum, ummmm what is a NSV? From the context clues is is something good. I am sure there will be an increase in your water bill...wink wink

    4 Months Today And Not Happy!

    Yikes this is my fear! I am so nervous that I will not lose. I did read a lot on the forum and many people stall about every 3 weeks. Pammie, does your protein shake have a lot of other junk in it? I know the more pure may not taste as good, but better for you.
  15. April 17th for me and I am so excited. I am having trouble thinking of anything else, feel sorry for my friends because it is all I can talk about. I have a lower BMI so I only have to pre-op diet for 2 days, so i will not complain about that since most have 2 weeks:-) Super crazy rookie question, how do i get the cute ticker to track my progress to show up like everyone else?

    Scared I Will Gain If I Eat.

    Lucky Lady, that is kind of a loaded question. It is the more food you eat to fuel your body. If you eat something that will linger around in your system and not be used or broken down, that is bad. So choose foods that do something for your body.

    Afraid With Low Bmi

    Geez, now I am getting nervous but for not being able to lose enough weight. I also have a low BMI, getting sleeved next Monday and have a goal weight of 120. Am I setting myself up for a heartache? My starting weight is 172

    Scared I Will Gain If I Eat.

    I am worried about the same thing! A friend of mine said you will totally feel the pain and overeating like in the past is not going to be an option. I however have trouble believing this since I overate before and have said a billiion times....oh why did I eat so much.

    One Week Until Surgery

    this is great! I was hoping to see people around the same size as me. I was worried for "skinny fat" people the surgery would not be as successful, I am so happy!
