Yes I have , ordered a custom made book fron brahms bookworms , in which I am going to put my before and after pictures in it as well as notes, thoughts, and my experience. I also have a baractic binder that I got from Henry Ford that's awsume it has everything in it.

Thats great congrats, I have not had my surgery it but I am dropping sizes now prior to surgery. Keep up the great work you off to a great start.

I dont have food funeral now that I am working out prior to my surgery because I know if I eat anything I a m going to have to work it off. I have become so aware of what I am eating and why I am eating it, that these 6 months of prep time is really working for me. I no longer eat out of boredom or make bad food choices, I eat when I am hungry, I exercise at least 40 minutes every day as well as I think about food differently. I now know that my past food choices is the reason that I am in this boat in the first place as well as I did not know how many calories that I was consuming when I was eating it. I done not want to sabotage my new me before I have even began. I still have 3 months to make my changes before I have surgery and I an going to do everything I can to be successful . Missing food can be hard because it has always been a comfort and non judgemental , but look at it this way we are , our worst critic we know how to beta ourselves up better than anyone else. So let this be a new begining for you a new happier you. Good luck.

Congrats and good luck and I wish you a speedy recovery.

Your going to be ok just take one day at a time.

My symptoms were an upset stomach, constantly it has stop now since I am on my medications .

Its really about what you really want to do, I have the choice of either one and my surgeon said I would do great with the sleeve and perhaps better with RGY do to my diabetics. Good luck. Im sure you will make the best choice for you.

Im sure with time it will get better, I know my family may feel like they are suffering an dI haven even had my surgery yet, I just replace all unhealthy snakes with fresh fruit, and vegetables. I also replace all soda with crystal like. If they want something saity there is peanuts , all ice cream has been replaced with sugerfree popsickels. So fat so good I have not heard any complaints.

Your looking great, what was your starting weight?

Hi I havent had my procedure yet , I will in Jan and I have just began my journal , I would like to be your friend.

Hi I have not had my surgery yet, but I am making changes now so that it does not be so hard after I get to the surgery time. I know it may be hard but try to remember why you had this surgery in the first place. Get rid of all your triggers, if your stress out, go for a walk instead of eating, began a journal, try something new that soothing such as a puzzle , knitting,painting etc. And find a good support group. Good luck I know you can do it.

Hi I felt the same way you did, I just wanted it done, I have to do a 6 month weight management also for my insurance. I was placed on a 1500 calorie per day , informed that they want me to loose 20 pounds, and to workout. I have been on this plan for almost two months and I have began to loose weight. I am confident by Jan 2014 when my 6 months is up I should be down the pounds and hopefully more.

Hi this is a personal choice for you to decide and no one else, this is a life time changed, that will help you live longer and healthier. No offense but I would concern myself on what is in the best interest of me not my fiance. Good luck.

Congrats you had a very challenging day, I'm glad you made it and I wish you a speedy recovery.

Welcome and congrats on your new journal before you know it the months will go by with all the appointments. I look or ward to our progress .

You had a very busy day and congrats on your new journal , you can do it and I'm sure those ten pounds will melt off. Began with walking I have to loose 20 pounds before surgery and I have already began loosing weight by walking everyday for t least 30 to 1 hour every day . Good luck .

Congrats keep up the good work your looking good.

I think its no ones business, if you do not feel like sharing your personal business then dont, it is your own business no one else. I have not told my coworkers because honestly its none of their business and I do not discuss personal issues. The only people that know is my husband, , parents and kids. Just remember you do not owe anyone an explanation.

Congrats our on your way to a new you.
