Your welcome. I can't wait to be on the loser bench with you so keep it warm for me hopefully I will be there by the end of the month

You can have the old stuff just not a much and you have to think the old stuff is what got us here in the first place

Is your shakes made with milk? Some people become lactate intolerant after surgery

Good luck al having surgery this week!! I wish you all a safe surgery and speedy recovery!!

Jealous over here. I can't wait till I am there good luck!!

I made regular chili and put the recipe in myfitnesspal and oh boy. One cup is 450 calories!!!!

All places I would love to visit. I lived in Florida fir many years and been to Orlando upteen times. I plan to take my grandbaby there next year for her 4th birthday to Disney

I am waiting too. Got all my final stuff done last week. Called insurance coordinator at surgeons office to make sure she has everything and if she already submitted or fixing too. Left a message so waiting for her to call back

So where is all our October members from? I am in West Virginia

Love it Don sorry I haven't put pictures on here so not sure

Good luck anume will be thinking of you. Have a speedy recovery!

I am finally in the approval process at least I hope!! Calling surgeons insurance coordinator first thing in the morning to make sure she recieved everything she needs

I guess you have to think what made you start researching and going through the process for gastric bypass. Everyone gets nervous and second guesses themselves. I look at it like this either I stay morbidly obese and keep gaining weight year after year till eventually my BP mess and cholesterol meds wont matter and I develop diabetes and all this is like I am dying but a slow death each year or do I take the risk with this surgery get healthy no more BP pills no more cholesterol meds and I avoid being diagnosed diabetic. I choose surgery

Mu surgeon requires one week but some say just 3-4 days that had same surgeon. I guess the surgeon determines individually what is needed

I bought some True lemon packets for my water tried them today and love them

I bought some protein bars on clearance at Walmart. I went to get one noticed the calories and now feel guilty if I eat one. I still up until surgery have to watch my caloric intake

Same here. Not fast enough!!

Paul with the tea or coffee black can you have like splenda in it? And how many SF puddings a day can you have? Do you still have to stay under a calorie count while doing a liquid diet?

1 scoop of whey isolate vanilla cream with 8 oz of skim milk a cup or two of decaf coffee with truvia and fat free creamer

My nut said that our bodies can only absorb 30 grams of protein in a sitting so any extra that siting is wasted

Well I would be doing good but it took me all month September to lose the weight I gained from quitting smoking and so now I am down to that weight. So now have to work on the 10 pounds. See I saw him in July when he said that. I saw his NP in August which showed the gain. Lost it plus a pound at September weigh in and now have to lose the 9 pounds actually by the 16th when I see him again

I am trying to start one. Not sure what exactly I can or cannot have or if I have to count calories along with this too. I don't have to do one yet just one week prior to surgery and don't have a date yet. But last I talked to surgeon in July he wanted me to lose 10 pounds before surgery

Nice!!!

Try drinking prune juice with pulp it definatly works
