Mine kinda look like that? I still have steri strips on. Whatever happened with ur incisions? Thx Sent from my iPhone using VST

I emailed her beginning of dec to thank her for helping me with my insurance approval, no reply Which is unlike her. And then I called Monday to make my week follow up appt and asked for her and she's gone. I didn't ask why tho.

I just heard sabina is gone!!! Do you know why??? I'm wondering do we need to find a new nutritionist, or will they replace her? I liked her soo much! Sent from my iPhone using VST

You don't need the added stress right now! This will not help with the new tools you need to mentally develop to succeed. If my mom acted like she did when I was younger it would drive me to continue to be the old person! Once you really start dealing with the diet you will need that person that will comfort you and say, you can do this! Not the person that will say well, it was ur decision but doing this! Your prob better off on your own with another caregiver stopping by. Good luck either way!!!! Stay positive and focused! Sent from my iPhone using VST

How was work? Did u do ok ???? Sent from my iPhone using VST

Don't let anyone tell you or make you feel that this is the easy way out! In fact, it's the hard way out! I was sleeved 12/26 day after Christmas, hospitalized for 2 days and on Clear liquids hopefully till Friday 1/4/12. This is not easy, but I'm rather curious how far I could take this! I can't even imagine the number of times I would have already binged on food by now. In fact I have to remind myself I can't! Even tho I want to I can't! But at the same time I am craving colorful healthy food. Sent from my iPhone using VST

This has been so hard for me! I've had a c section and tummy tuck and this is by far the worst! My meds have been completely changed as I've been weak and nauseous for days. I may be going on day 3 in the hospital. I'm sorry to complain but please tell me this will honestly get better!!!!! I keep saying what did I do? Sent from my iPhone using VST

Thank u! Gives me hope! Sent from my iPhone using VST

Sleeved this morning. I'm tired and groggy with moments where I feel like I might throw up. But then I fan myself and it passes. Pain is pain lol but tolerable on the meds. Issue is I'm too unstable to walk. I'm not even hungry but would love water! I can't eat or drink a thing until tomorrow's swallow test. Sent from my iPhone using VST

I tried lol they shot me down Sent from my iPhone using VST

In approx 24 hours I will be getting up to go to the hospital. I think what I'm doubting the most is, this isn't like any diet I've ever been on. Weight watchers for example, oh ill use my extra points, or ill start Monday. Essentially there is no way to quit or cheat or start over Monday. So I need to tell myself, do this and do it well. Don't stop and for once in your life be healthy and happy! It's going to be tough but I can and will. Do this! Preop diet starts today, just one more holiday. I've had 33 Christmas' I could enjoy it even more next year! My last supper was pops Cereal, as if I hadn't been last suppering it since Oct when this all started! Sent from my iPhone using VST

We will do great tmrw and for the rest of our lives!!!! Stay focused and positive! We must approach this like if not this then nothing else. This can't be just another diet!!!! If we do that we will never use it to our maximum potential! Sent from my iPhone using VST
