Lol well some questions are stupid but hers wasnt.

Butterthebean gave the best advice. This is what i do and have been doing my entire pregnancy to keep my weight in check. Measure proper portions and don't go back for more if you're not stuffed. You get used to not eating as much.

I feel ya. I was denied in Ontario (unless I want to wait 3 or more years and go through ohip). So I am going to Mexico and paying out of pocket. I'm fortunate enough that my fiancé is paying for me. But to those who don't have that kind of money just laying around you could always look into financing or a line of credit (low interest). My fiancé only makes $65,000 a year and he got approved for a $35,000 line of credit. So I'd go talk to your bank.

Enjoy it no. But that being said I don't feel awful about myself. I always feel beautiful and I don't hate my body. I hate that I'm not in shape, and I hate I have to spend twice as much in clothes. I have been overweight my whole life (besides a year and a half of being bulimic and addicted to drugs where I lost 160lbs and for down to 140lbs). I love to do active things and I hate that my weight stops me from doing a lot of those things anymore. I'm also doing this for my kids. So that they can live healthy lives and I can make the most of their childhood. I'm 21 and I'm not waiting until I do have health issues (I have none as of yet).

Just chew it up fast and down it with Water. I've never had a problem with taking pills but I used to make mixtures of different herbs and spices, mix it with water and lemon and down it. Was super gross but made me feel great. I now take a mixture of honey and cinnamon (LOTS of cinnamon) every morning and night for health benefits. I don't taste it I just swallow the clump of honey.

Value village or Salvation Army is great for cheap clothes while in the progress. I did this in highschool when I got pretty sick and lost 160 lbs.

I get this. Have since I was 16. If I don't eat enough I start feeling really sick. This is why I worry about getting WLS. I'm so afraid that I will constantly feel sick. It's not acid reflux as I take nexium. I'm not sure what it is but it's super irritating.

I like isofemme. Mixed with almond milk. Has 25g of protein and I actually quite enjoy it.

I've decided to wait until April to pay my deposit. Just so my fiancé can get his work schedule figured out for the time he's going to take off.

I'm getting sleeved in June as well. I'm pregnant now (having a c section on February 26th). Want to breast feed and try and loose at least 30-40 lbs before my surgery.

It won't throw you out of ketosis as much as complex carbs will. I was on Atkins for 1 year and a half, was also bulimic and very addicted to drugs but drinking never threw me out of ketosis for long.

How does that work? Do you just go see your general practitioner? A specialist? I'll be going to a nutritionist after I get home but as far as check ups afterwards I can't find too much info.

Lander, I take it you didn't get it done in Mexico then? Lol I can't be making trips to Mexico my whole life.

it's a tedious job finding a good protein that you like. What do you do with the stuff you have bought but don't like?

Oh good I will probably be buying it all from gnc. I bought 3 tubs of isofemme online and I still have half of one left. I actually may just continue to drink it as it has 25g of protein per scoop.

Just wondered what everyone did with the ones they didn't like. I usually just sold them to my brother if I didn't like them.

None yet, I'm pregnant so artificial sweeteners are a no no. I usually drink the isofemme but will probably switch to unjury after I have the baby. I'm getting sleeved in June. But I've always loved protein shakes.

Amitch17 is my username (I'm not sleeved yet because I'm pregnant but will be getting it in June)

I'm pre op but I worry about this too as I have been on nexium for 6 years now.

I walk my 18month old outside (I live in Ontario Canada) and I will be walking the new baby in the cold too. As long as they are bundled well they are fine. Eskimos raise babies in the far north, I'm sure she will be ok.

Oh there will be no mourning here! I can't wait to fit into a nice pair of Mavi jeans!

I'm 5'7" and would like to be at 150 or 160. I still want my curves too.
