    upper endoscopy

    oh yeah it was super simple. I remember them pulling the tube out and thats it. I wasn't even tired afterwards.
  2. I was wondering about these. My doc said they didn't have enough Protein but honestly I can't stand others I have tried; body fortress, pure protein, nectar.... The taste and texture grosses me out. I figure some type of protein is better than none.
  3. I am near the end of month 4 from a 6 month supervised diet. I haven't lost or gained any weight until this month. I have gained 3 lbs. My eating is getting out of control. Ahhhh!!! I'm hoping not eating very much this week before weigh in will make a difference.

    i cant stop eating

    I was exercising up until this month. We bought a house and it requires a ton of work so that's where all my free time goes

    i cant stop eating

    My issue is two things. First I eat to stay awake. I go from 6am till past midnight most days and rely on food to keep me awake. And second it seems everyone only wants to do things that involve food, cook outs, getting a shake somewhere, stopping to have Breakfast, birthday potlucks....blah I don't know how to have a social gathering that doesn't involve food
  6. Does anyone have any they would like to share? I have no time to cook and prep food anymore.
  7. I have to have labs, endoscopy, ekg, pysch eval, 6 month diet plus meet with a nutritionist.

    xbox 360 kinect

    Has anyone lost weight doing any of the exercise games..
  9. My doctor really wants me to consider having the sleeve done. I have read stuff about both. I like the fact that the down time with the sleeve is much shorter, can you eat pretty much all foods, and you don't have to worry about dumping. You still lose the same percentage of weight. But I like with RNY the weight comes off quicker, there's more data on it, it's restrictive. I don't know.

    sleeve vs rny

    I personally think I'd be happier with rny, it's what I wanted from the beginning.

    I'm hoping I get my march goodie bod today
  14. Oh my goodness. I bought some turkey from wal-mart to make chili with. I thought it looked a little strange when I opened it, but turkey usually looks strange anyways. I went ahead and used it. Few hours later my boyfriend and I were both fighting over the bathroom. I totally feel like poo. What sucks too, is I was also trying to spend time with my 1 year old who didn't understand what was going on. (Because when my boyfriend is sick the world is ending, and is helpless) So I pose this kind of serious, but not really question. I was within 30 seconds of puking on my child. I don't know if that would make me a terrible or good mom. On the one hand, I held him and spent time with him while my insides were dying from the bad turkey. On the other, I could of seriously traumatized both of us for life......
  15. I'm also in 3rd month of the supervised diet. I've only lost 1 pound. My doctor requires you to lose 10lbs before surgery. I figure I'll lose that much on the pre op liquid diet
  16. I personally haven't had surgery yet, but from what I have read each day gets better. Best thing I can suggest is try to go back to sleep and sleep it off or ask for some pain killers

    Pen Pal Goodie Boxes?

    Personally, I think if someone doesn't send one for any reason! than they should not be able to participate. People are taking the time, energy, and money to do these. It isn't fair to shell out and not get anything in return.
  18. Congrats! Did you have problems with excess skin? Its a major concern of mine
  19. I'm in the 3rd month of my 6 month supervised diet. I see the surgeon tomorrow. I'm curious to know what they usually do during that appt....any ideas

  21. How many times did you see your surgeon prior to surgery?
