    How Do You Beat the Cold?

    I have to wear a jacket at work. After a workout, I reward myself with the hot tub and sauna at the gym. Then I can brave the below zero windchills. At home I use a blanket always. It's true that since losing weight I get cold and have a hard time warming up.

    wish you got lap band?

    I was going to get the band, but my husband was not on board at all.. he had some coworkers who have had it done with very little success and lots of issues. I was surprised that he was very supportive of the sleeve. I had not even thought of any other type of surgery before. I am happy that I did my research and decided to go with the sleeve. Best decision ever!!!!!

  6. Hi, I have not gotten to my old ways of eating and I hope not too!! I do have cravings, but so far have been able to walk away and not partake. I avoid vending machines by not having cash on me, I also pack healthy foods if I know I will be out running around so I can stop and eat so I dont have the temptation to stop somewhere. Hope these tips help!!

    Feeling Lethargic

    Hi , i agree with BigGirlPanties, major surgery will take time to feel "normal" again. Also, you don't say if you are getting your fluids in. That is also just as important as your Protein. good luck to you bot LRG and Debbie!!

    craving

    Tomato soup should be ok, I added a teaspoon of plain greek yogurt in mine to add a little protein.

    Protein NRG (Protein Water) - Shark Tank

    i think it states drink the 4 ounces 15 - 20 minutes prior to working out. I don't think its saying to drink it in 15 - 20 minutes?

    United?

    I have united healthcare choice plus NE I am not sure if they are the same, but I do know that mine only required a 3 year health history from my doctor. I hope this helps. good luck!

    insurance requirement dropped from 6mnths to 4 :-)

    I was actually petty lucky with my insurance, the only thing it required is a 3 year health history from my doctor and the usual psych eval. I had more from my doctor to accomplish before surgery, but all in all it went pretty fast! Good luck to you!!

    Still can't drink

    I had a real hard time with fluids the first week. I found if i chewed on crushed ice it was better and also SF popsicles. I then set a timer and forced myself to drink one ounce of Water every 15 minutes. After two days of this it became easier to get fluids in. I hope you can find what works for you.

    Pre-Op Diet Starts Today

    Good luck!! I was so ready when my surgery date came, but reality reared its ugly head and the few days after surgery I kept asking my self Is this really worth it? I had a hard time with fluids the first week, but I will tell you it was the best decision that I could have made! You will do great, just follow what your doctor tells you and check out all these forums, you will have lots of support!!!
