Oh geesh no wonder. I babysit an infant and never out In the sun!!! It's been way to hot! And I don't drink near enough milk because it's so expensive so there ya go lol!!!

I am very thankful for everyone's posts! They help a lot!!

Am so excited and I don't even have a date yet! Went to my first Dr appointment this past Monday! I've had my stress test done, lab work done, sleep study done, EKG done, forgot to get chest x-ray while The hospital but I only live 2 blocks away so that's no biggie! They scheduled my endoscopy for August 31, got my phsyc eval done as well! I have to see the nutritionist at some point and attend 3 meetings and all will be done! I cannot wait to hear the magical news that they have a date set! This is so long over due for this momma! I want my kids to meet the skinny mom that can join in their fun!!!!!

Go to my first Dr. Appointment on July 30th. I have a packet of paperwork to fill out and take with me. Can anyone tell me about the first visit?! I am also. Concerned about my diet history sheet! How on earth am I supposed to remember every diet I've done for the last 3 to 4 years for I am constantly trying to diet with no specific loss!! Any help would be greatly appreciated! I am a mother of 3 and my oldest is 22. I gained 64 lbs with him at the age of 17 and never lost any of it. I am now at my heaviest at 275 and I am done with this crap!! HELP PLEASE

Has anyone had hair loss?? And I'm very worried about charting my dieting! I diet all the time with no significant weightloss and God knows I don't keep dates! They want me to be very specific for the last 3 to 4 years. What do I do?

So glad to read these posts!!! I did chicken out and cancelled my appointment to see the dr on July 1st! Had myself convinced I could do this on my own! Well it turned 100 degrees outside and of course I didnt walk like I told myself I would and went right back to eating junk!!! So the dr rescheduled my appointment for July 30th! I am going to have this done and I will succeed! Will it kill me..... Uh yes haha! A little history... I had my first child at 17 and gained 64 lbs bring me up to 224lbs at delivery. Well that was 22 years and 2 more children ago!! I now am at my heaviest and weigh 275lbs! I never lost a pound of my first baby weight and it has been 22 years since I have been under 200 lbs! I have to do this for me and my health! Will it be hard yes!!! But will I succeed....darn straight! So good luck to you and know you are not alone!

Sleep study only showed I have a major case of RLS!! I have shallow breathing when I go into the rem cycle but my rem cycles only last like 5 minutes because of my RLS so they really weren't sure.

Ok day 2 started! I peed so much yesterday I weighed myself this morning and I'm down 6.5 lbs lol. I'm sure that will level out but YAY! Getting ready to drink my first protein of the day, I'm doing the 2 shakes tons of liquid lol and a small dinner. Any suggestions for a satisfying evening meal? Thanks everyone!!!!

Omg day one on the pre op diet was a killer! Did pretty good until night fall! I am a major snacker and it's sweets I turn to! God please tell me this will get easier!!???­

Or the pre op protein diet did anyone actually lose weight or is it just to shrink the liver?

What was your pre op diet?

Starting my protein diet today! Can someone explain to me is this for pre surgery weight loss or just to prep your body? How long is everyone staying on their pre diet for???

New to forum! Going to my first seminar June 4th! I live in illinois and have Illinois Medicaid. My husbands insurance won't kick in for another year!! My BMI is at 43. I found a place in Herrin Illinois that accepts Medicaid so I'm hoping what they told me is true and there isn't a 2 year waiting list!! They said it takes about a month to get in to see the dr. and around 8 weeks to schedule surgery. Does anyone else have any experience or guidance for me???

Good luck to you Cathy!! I'm very nervous about the whole process
