    They talked like they wanted it in my system when I arrived but you're right, maybe they could just give me one at the hospital.

    Pre op diet!

    I love Sushi the day before my pre op diet I went Chinese.
  5. I am pretty new and don't know to many people on this site, but I'm thankful you started a post like this.
  6. I used it once lost 30 pounds gained back 60. It does make you not want to eat, but it had an effect on me where I felt irritable all the time, my blood pressure elevated, It just didnt help me make a lifestyle change.
  7. Feel kinda bad I'm nearly done with the pre op diet I'm close to my surgery but today was hard, went to mom she was cooking the most amazing smelling food, and my 13 year old son had a pizza he came over and began waving it in my face I yelled at him a little too much just glad when this phase will be over.

      Just focus on your upcoming surgery date and the awesome accomplishments that are ahead. I have been cooking for my family and have tried to keep it pretty healthy, but they often request meals I wouldn't be able to eat. It's tough but you've just got to focus on your health. Keep your eye on the prize...a healthy, new you!

      Lol it' wasn't the food so much as trying not slap my kid not eating doesn't help my temper.

    Pre opt diet weight loss

    Doc said the high Protein 25 carbs are fine. Not supposed to have more than that.

    Pre opt diet weight loss

    Slim fast is on the recommended list, and is the most affordable for me 4 weeks of shakes add up.

    Cry for Happy

    I bought a pair of 26 Lee Riders 2 months ago and thought that it was great to be out of a 28/30 now the pair of pants I bought are 4 sizes too big.
  12. Everyday but only count once a week, because as someone who is prone to retain Fluid I know that the scale fluctuates a lot throughout the day. I weigh in the morning just after using the bathroom and right before a shower.

    Low Energy - No appetite

    He said be active, I doubt he meant for you to run marathons, just not to lay in bed, try to get your Protein in, I haven't had the surgery yet, but that's pretty important.

    This is the 1st pic I felt comfortable enough with taking a full body shot.
  17. I don't even know where to start, I remember to incidents both of them at a grocery store, A teenager behind me kept "mooing" and another time an old lady in front of me took one look at my shopping cart and commented to the cashier "she doesn't look like she goes hungry" Once when I was 11 I went in for a booster shot, the nurse says "is there a chance you might be pregnant?" being 11 I giggled cause I thought the question was absurd, and the nurse replied "well, you're not exactly thin"

  19. I enjoyed reading this, my surgery is Nov 21st, my 1st family gathering will be Dec 13th, fortunately this group breaks tradition and the whole family brings in all kinds of different Soups, there are bad choices and good choices. I heard someone once say to make all your food choices a "CHOICE" not a cheat, I have already been planning how I am going to handle this day, but I think I will be okay.

    Comebacks for this.

    Hi, I started my WLS journey back in May I had to lose 5% of my weight for insurance purposes so I had to go to the Dr. for 6 months, I lost 62 pounds on this alone I started from 321 pounds. Now people who were supportive at 1st are asking me "You've lost so much, why don't you just do it on your own?" Is there a good answer for this, right now I'm on 4 weeks of slim fast I started that 2 weeks ago and tend to be a little irritable these days my surgery date is Nov 21st.
