  2. Hi all....I've been steadliy losing weight and I'm down 70 pounds. I've been more active then ever and it feels great! However, I weighed myself a few times this week and I'm actually up 2 pounds this week. What is up with that?!?? How do I keep going and not get discouraged??

    March 2014 sleevers

    Hi all-I was sleeved on 3/3/14 and am down 71 pounds since my highest weight. I've never been happier!! I have so much more energy and self confidence! I have a lot of extra around my lower abdomen that I'm trying to work on. I don't have any plans for skin removal sugery because of how much it costs.

    5 days and counting!

    I have surgery in 5 days as well!! I feel the same way...I think I've ready every thread on this website, but that still doesn't prepare me for how I will feel after surgery. I want to be successful and I just hope that I have the strength to not go back to my old ways!!
  6. I'm scheduled for 3/3 also!! The last few days on the pre-op diet have been sooooo hard!! I'm just keeping my brain focused on the future and hoping that it's all worth it.

    I miss food!

    I know what you guys mean....I feel like I broke up with a boyfriend or lost a best friend except it's just food. My nutritionist says that I have to keep telling myself that food does not control me, and that I am worth more than the damage food does to me!!
  8. I also had my pre-op appointments on the 18th and started my pre-op diet yesterday. I did have a few food funerals, but can't have any more! These next 11 days are going to be torture! But I'm just going to suck it up and do it.
  9. I have surgery on March 3rd as well!!! I started my pre-op diet today of high protein and low carb. At least I don't have to do it for a full 2 weeks. I can't help but feel panicked at this point because I know how hungry and crabby I'm going to be for the next few days!
  10. I started my pre-op diet today as well.....I feel so hungry already I don't know how I'm going to survive!!

    Endoscopy findings...

    I had my EGD yesterday and it was a breeze...I don't remember a thing and don't have any pain at all! Thanks for everyone's input on this because I didn't feel nervous at all going into it. Next step-surgery!!

    The Last Supper...

    I start mine next week....I've been having food funerals for the last couple of days which I know isn't helping anything!
  13. Hi everyone-I saw online that Isopure has a zero carb drink with 40 grams of protein in it, but it's super expensive. Has anyone found a high protein sports drink (like gatorade, etc) that is more cost effective?

    Who is in March?

    I'm on March 3rd!! I think I'm going to try iso-pure sometime soon because it has so much protein in it. I'm worried about how to get enough protein in since you can't eat or drink a whole lot at at time.

    Anyone having surgery in March?

    Hi all-I'm scheduled for March 3rd. Right not I'm just trying to get in fruits/veggies, control portions and add in some protein supplements. I start my pre-op diet on Feb 19th. I've cut out all soda and caffeine at this point too.

    February/March 2014 sleevers

    Hi everyone-surgery is scheduled for March 3rd in La Crosse, Wisconsin. I can't wait to start my new life!!! I just hope that I do everything right and that my recovery isn't too bad. I feel consumed by thoughts and feelings and even though it's only a few weeks away I feel like it can't come soon enough!

    Endoscopy findings...

    Thanks for putting me at ease.....I hope my results are good!!
  18. I'm in the same boat as you guys-surgery is on March 3rd. I'm excited, scared and nervous all at the same time!! I wouldn't say I'm having second thoughts, just want it to be here already so I can start recovering.

    Endoscopy findings...

    I have my endoscopy next week and I'm really nervous about it! Because of how it will feel, and also because I don't want any of the results to affect my ability to have the sleeve surgery.

    Pre-op Diet Vent

    I start my pre-op diet soon and I feel like I'm starting to panic already. I don't feel like there is any way I can only eat what they want me to for 2 weeks! My husband said "you won't be able to eat a lot after surgery anyway" and I said "I know but my stomach is still regular size right now!!"

    Upper GI

    I have my endoscopy next Wednesday and I'm feeling really nervous about it. I did the sleep study and that wasn't bad at all....not like being put under and having a camera snaked down your throat!! Anybody have any info. on the endoscopy that will put me at ease?
  24. I have surgery on March 3rd too and I'm having the same thoughts!!
  25. I got the approval for surgery from insurance today!! So excited!!
