How do you all put your weight Tickers on your reply's, I am new to all of this. Do add it to each message or is it automatically placed there?

<p>Well I decided I am going to start it on Monday July 30th so I can lose enough weight to be able to call my surgeon for a foloow up appointment. I have not seen him since March. Because he wanted me to get down to 375 before I call him back for a follow up. Then he will start the scheduling process which takes about another month and a half at which point I will have to have lost an additional 15 lbs bringing me down to 360. Then I can have the sugery...WHAT A MESS!!! Oh well I am really going to try it this time and I will definitely need support!</p>

How often do you drink these fluids all day? Do you drink as much as you want of each except the OJ and V8?

Thanks for the suggesstions... I am seeing that most people just do 2 week liquid diets right before sugery, but my surgeon wants me to lose the 40 more lbs before he will even schedule the surgery. Then it is scheduled for one month or so after that date, at that point I had to have maintained my goal or they will cancel surgery until I lose it again..sucks!

Does anyone have any suggestions on things to help lose weight now before my surgery? I met my surgeon back in March 2007 and since Nov 2006 when I started this process through my hospital I have only lost 20 lbs. My surgeon wants me to lose more before he will schedule me for surgery. He wants me to get down to 360 lbs which is about 40 more lbs. I have had so many stuggles trying to lose this initial weight I feel like I will never get this surgery!!! :cry
