OFF THE WAGON AFTER PREGNANCY

Visit the veteran forums. I lurk there sometimes and frequently read posts about people trying to restart the weight loss. Good luck to you and congratulations! -
FRUSTRATED Grocery shopper..
Lifechange>40 replied to Lifechange>40's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I found the Torani syrups at a larger Wal-Mart today. Still no premier shakes. I'm going to Sams Club this evening. I know this will get easier, I'm just used to shopping one place and not putting a lot of thought into it! (Look where that got me!)???? -

Thanks for the advice on the yogurt. I guess I got wrapped up in everything else bring sugar free...jello, pudding, Popsicles, etc. -
FRUSTRATED Grocery shopper..

I probably need to shop at Publix or a bigger Wal/Mart. I was so aggravated! They were sold out of B1, had stopped carrying Torani syrups, and didn't gave half the stuff in my list! -

Sitting next to my mom.....
Lifechange>40 replied to val326's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I was going to keep it to just my hubby and kids. They would not tell anyone. But I got to thinking about "what ifs" and told my mom and sister. My sister is keeping it to herself but my mom has told her sisters, my brother's girlfriend etc. When I asked her she said well they're just family! So only tell people if you are willing for it to get out!!! -
Stomach scope procedure
Lifechange>40 replied to Jammil0411's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
My surgery is the 24th and I have not had to have this done! Now I'm worried they will find something during the procedure. Does anyone know if it is abnormal to NOT have this test? -
Insurance or Self-Pay?
Lifechange>40 replied to Kooky1's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
My insurance excludes all wls. I still chose a bariatric center of excellence because it included complications insurance for self pay. I was not willing to bankrupt my family if I am in the percentage that has problems. The complication insurance covers you for all extenuating complications for 6 months. I am scheduled with Dr Schmitt, Birmingham, AL. -
June 30th is my date- i need buddies
Lifechange>40 replied to 50lbstogo's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
My date is June 24th. I only have 1 week of total liquids so I also start my pre-op the 17th. Enjoy the beach and don't let the food (or lack of food) get you down. Focus on saying to yourself...the next time I come to the beach I will look amazing!!! -
I'm June 24th in Alabama. I really need to stop reading these posts about complications because it is freaking me out!!!

My date is going to be that week. I'm having my surgery in Birmingham, AL. I'm 43 and wish I had done this years ago. It has seemed "unreal" until now. I may go into full panic mode when I get the exact date!
