    I like pie

    My sister used to have the lap band. There were lots of things she couldn't eat. Apparently coconut is one of them. My aunt brought in two beautiful coconut cream pies. Lots of super sweet toasted coconut upon a cloud of perfectly browned meringue. We put one in the fridge and then placed the other pie between us on a table. I was sitting across from her and cut her and myself a huge piece each. I'm digging in making these orgasmic sounds as I'm eating. "Mmmm Mmm Mmm oh this is so good. Mmmmm"... you get the picture. I look at her plate and, poor dear, she had to miss out on enjoying the perfect deliciousness of the toasted coconut that was on top. She'd scraped hers off the top and into a pile on the side of her plate. I promptly scooped up her pile with my fork and plopped it in my mouth. It was so sweet. "Mmm Mmm Mmm", I say. "You miss out on the best parts". I swallow it down only to look up and see her with a huge smile on her face. "What is so funny" , I ask Her reply: "you just ate the coconut I'd sucked all the flavor off of and put in a pile on my plate". Moral of the story, don't steal food off a bander's plate.

    Pre op diet

    That's actually common. They pump you full of fluids and you can stay bloated for quite a while.
  5. I got them at walmart on the soup aisle next to the regular broths. They are easy to overlook though.
  6. I think it's more the thought. I smell the alcohol and get dizzy. Lol
  7. Only thing that gets me nervous is if I let myself think about the IV. I just slam the door on those thoughts though. I'll deal with it when the time comes. I usually faint, but I'll be lying down anyway.... I'm the 18th.

    You can add a scoop of unflavored protein to some crystal lite and guzzle that and it will help. It's not the best drink on the planet but it's not horrible either.

    Got the date !

    Try these. They are a lifesaver. Cut in half with regular beef or chicken broth Bc they are spicy.
  11. You can do this! I'm on day 10 of a 14 day pre-op. These are a godsend. Cut them in half with regular beef or chicken broth though Bc they are spicy.

    I am sleeved!

    Sounds like you're doing very well! Congrats!! I hope I do as well as you. Keep us updated with your progress as you are able
  13. I'm the 18th and on day 10 of the pre-op diet. If I can do the pre-op diet, you can. I think I had headaches the first two (or3) days and day 8 was hard. I'd had a yogurt with too high of a sugar count and it triggered a hunger rage. I was "hangry". Hungry+angry. But I did not cheat. It's difficult, but doable. April

    It sucks but it's doable. My worst day was like day 8 or 9. I'd accidentally got some sugar in my system from not checking carbs and it triggered me. I wanted everything I could imagine and it was hard not to cheat, but I didn't.

    Marijuana

    Hmmm... Let my chime in. I have 3 kids. Ages 17, 19 and 22. If they were to go out and "party" I'd much rather them forgo the pills and liquor and instead use marijuana. It's safer. Period. I could lose my child over a pill OD, alcohol poisoning or even drinking n driving. But, if my kid were to smoke "too much" pot what are they gonna do? OD? No. Eat? Probably. How can you come here and post, when you, personally, have never even tried it? Oh yeah, because your children had it blown in their faces. Well, not to be morbid, but if their parents had been abusive in a different way-say being burnt with a curling Iron, would you be against curling irons? The parents were the ones abusing those children. Pot didn't make them do that. They weren't sitting there smoking pot and then all of a sudden not care about the welfare of their children and decide to abuse them. They already had that tendency and blowing it in their face was only one way to act that out.
