Yep I hav 2 body pillows. I had a good night sleep. Thank god! I notice my taste buds are different. Chicken broth tastes bland and protein shake tastes different. I've been on popcicles and water. I'm gonna try the refried beans with salsa and cheese tonight. I actually feel good. Don't wanna do to much tho. I also can hear stomach making noises almost like growling but not really. Everytime I eat or drink I can hear it do u have that too? Thanks

I sure will!! ???????? I will nap then wake up, bathroom, nap...etc! I hope I get full night sleep tonight! Thanks for all ur support!!

How do u know if ur dehydrated?

Lol! Hi everyone well my day is coming up soon! Wed is the big day! I'm so excited and ready for the new Mel! Hubby is doing great just the tiredness I'm guessing that is something we all will go thru after major surg. As far as vomiting or nausea none of that!! Kiddos to our dr! She did a great job! I'm ready for the changes in my thought process about food. How only a little will have me full and the new look! Can't wait to shop!! I'm gonna be a thrift shopper for a Lil bit at first. I'm happy this forum is here and we all can truly express ourselves. I'm also happy that there are so many choices of sugar free and low fat food that u can make things taste like the fatty foods but not really be fattening. Wish me luck and pray for me! Thanks!!

My date is July 11! Is is creeping up on me!! Anyone have there 2 wk liver shrink menu yet?

I'm so proud of myself!!! I'm waitin on my surg now but I'm on cloud nine!! At preop June 13 I was 293lbs.....today I weighed in at 278!!! I'm so proud of myself! I said 2 days ago I wanted to be 278 but I didn't think I would make it. I did!! Woo hoooo!!

Im talking to her now on fb she said she is doing ok. Has to get gallbladder removed on aug 2. And she has lost 70lbs. She said all she can eat Is salad right now. Her hubby was getting the surg but now he is not due to everything she is going thru. She still feels the same about the surg..;( I told her we are praying for her and hope she is healed soon!

Thanks John!!

She is still off and on here I'm fb friends with her. I will let her kno we miss her on here.

I have the ninja also! Best blender hands down. And it's fast at blending. The magic bullet just wasn't enough power for me so I got this at Walmart bout 49$ with all the extras.

Today is officially my first day of liver shrink and I'm at work and omg...coworker is eating and I'm drinking drinking drinking. I can have veggies and protein shakes water crystal light. Omg headache...ok ok I got this! Came to far to fail.) any encouragement is appreciated.

Sweet!!!

Yay!! Congrats! That is my goal to run a whole mile without stopping. I can walk it now(preop) but I would love to get up to 2 or 3 miles!! Good luck! I also heard water arobics are good and Zumba classes too

That's what I can't wait for clothing being smaller! I already think I'm doing good! I normally wear 2x shirt but I actually tried on and fit an XL!! I haven't even had the surg yet!! Wooo hoooo!!

I feel the same way!! I have to work everyday till surg so I'm packing tons of water protein shakes lean cuisene, fruit, and veggies. This is tough but I'm happy I can keep busy. July 11 is next week!!!!

Oh yea no smoking just food withdrawal...headache.

Thanks guys. I will def do that with the compress tonight. It is def hard but I just ate some peaches half a can and I feel much better. It's actually not that hard now that the day is almost over. I feel like I have made it!! Come on day 2 I'm ready for ya...I think..☺☺
