Yay, lots of October 2nd tonight! Welcome! It just depends on the doctor, and your starting bmi sometimes. My doctor has me on a kind of mixed diet. 2 Protein shake meals, and 1 regular meal consisting of 6oz of meat and 1 cup of veggies. Lots of Jello, and I can have 1/2 cup of yogurt or cottage cheese for a snack

You're doing just fine! Good luck to you too! Message me if you have any questions, I've been getting ready for my surgery since last last January, so I can answer a lot!

You look amazing! Your before stomach looks just like mine, and I really hope that my 'after' stomach looks as flat as yours in shapeware. My starting weight is only 10 pounds below yours too. Thanks for giving me something to look forward to!

Hola! I'm October 2nd too. Does your doctor require a 2 week preop diet? If so, we're starting on Wednesday!!

Well my surgery isn't until October 2nd,but I want to join anyways! Starting pre surgery weight: 291 Halloween goal weight. 265 Probably going to be relatively easy with my pre op diet starting soon, but I'll adjust as needed

October 2nd here in North Dakota! 5 days until my preop diet starts. Time is flying!

Hola sleeve sister! October 2nd in North Dakota here. 5 more days until I start the preop diet!

My insurance dropped me last year, and I had to go back to the shitty company I worked for before with awesome insurance. I know how shitty you feel right now, so just keep looking for something better

Holy cow!

I think sugar-free would be best. I've never been, but my doc would allow a sugar-free smoothie plus protein. Let me know how that goes

It should be during the 6 months

I got a glance at the calendar today, 3 week to go! I had a mini excited panic attack. After a year and a half of waiting, it's finally going to be my turn

Definitely do. And the important thing is to let your body get used to it. I know I retained a lot of Water around the time that my periods used t be, when I first started taking it. I wasn't closely monitoring my weight back then like I am now, so I can't be sure if I didn't gain a couple pounds at first. So yeah, you might go up a little, but it might just be water weight.

I've been on seasonique for 4 years now, and I love it. Due to my extreme anemia, I get to skip the placebos and haven't had a period for 4 years. I haven't gained any weight since I started it either

I drink the Atkins low carb and the slim fast low carb, both rtd. I can't stand the weird protein after taste of powdered drinks or the weird sugary taste of the others but these aren't too bad

What date did you get? Congrats on the approval! I got my approval last month, and I had the biggest **** eating grin on my face the whole day! That was the second time it was sent in too. My date is October 2nd

I'm very interested to hear what the cause of this is. I have chronic dry skin problems, and this sounds like what my skin is like in the winter. I make my own brown sugar scrub, it's gentle on your skin and takes care of the dry skin issues. Do 3 cups of brown sugar, add (1/4th cup of regular sugar if you want extra texture) and then start off with 1/2 cup of extra virgin olive oil or any kind of olive oil, add more a little bit at a time until you get the consistency that you want. Good luck!

25 days till surgery, 11 to my liquid diet!

Hey sleeve sister! October 2nd here

Good question. I'm currently on 150mcg of levothyroxine, and I'm hoping things go smoothly with that. Questions I have:did anyone get their meds adjusted before 6 weeks? That's when I'm supposed to get tested after my surgery (Oct 2nd)

Yep, I turned it upside down so all the chicken was at the top of the bottle. And my Water was really boiling when I put it in, and it worked for me. Was your mixture cold enough? It has to be really cold, that's why you put so much ice in it

Yep maybe. Mine was really boiling when I did it

I'm getting nervous too! I'm on October 2nd. I've got a countdown widget on my phone that says 33 days!
