So thank you Marissa. Lol funny but good thing is I've (for months) have been trying to change my diet slowly so it's not such a shock after gb..the past few weeks I think my body is giving me hints as it's ready to change. Like when I drink soda I start feeling sick and when I eat the stuff high in carbs and sodium my entire body aches.

Nice idea with pizza. My kids and I love to make the pizza at home too. I thank you for your idea on using the sandwich thins.

Marissa do you have any advice or pov on changing my diet before and especially after the gb but not changing my kids diet? I think I can get my kids diet a bit healthier though just not as much as mine will be.

Thanks Cat,Mb, and Anaxila. I have type2, high blood pressure and high cholesterol. I know the gb isn't a magic cure and that I need to change my eating and activity habits forever. I don't want to say tmi but I need help. I have tbi(traumatic brain injury) with short and long term memory loss from getting hit by car. So I don't understand things right away. My thing is I just need help on what I should eat and workout info. I have gym in apartments and I do the,leg weightlifts and arm weights(3 diff ways), bike for bout 20 min and elliptic for bout 5. Should I be doing more? Any info anyone has I'd appreciate. Thank you.

Ive heard that the gb can make diabetes disappear from you. Wondering how long that takes

How,much at each meal I mean

How long is the appetite so little? Like a year after gb how much are you able to eat?

Lmfao...he got what he deserves

Omg..gotta stop texting in dark lol. I meant to say: Mis I am happy for you and that I wish you fast and smooth recovery.

Mis I am happy for you and wish you the fastest smoothest recovery.

Lol don't put that "magic" liquid in those shots. Been yrs since I've had jello shots..

That's a good thing. I'm happy for you.

Thank you.

Can't you get the skin removal surgery?

Move..typos as I'm doin this in the dark....

Julie what's smooth nove tea? I've never heard of it.

Omg Suze Im a big time belly sleeper too. Lol it was the hard part in being pregnant, not being able to sleep on belly. So maybe I'll be able to get little naps in while my kids are in school...let's hope at least

Thing

Lol only one hing im scared of loosing are my boobs. I LOVE THEM!!!!

Kris TODAY IS YOUR DAY!!!! I'm so excited for you and hope you tell us how it went. I haven't yet been given my date. Wish you the very best....

Good luck Dj

Lovelady all I can say is do it for you. It's your body not his. I'm sure he does love you and only means best tho. My kids got me to go to fitness center in our apt complex. I was amazed on how much I was sweating. So my plan as I said in another forum is to do each machine for 5 minutes then move to the next. I'll probably redo some of them. Just happy I'm FINALLY getting on the right track...all thanks to my kids

Me myself learn stuff here in chat because there is so many different chat topics and you can even make your own. I also learn alot from that show My 600lb Life. It's of people before and after the surgery. Let's me see the struggles I might have and how to be ready for them when they come.

Suepon I wish there was more people like you. I haven't had the gb yet or even been given a date. I just moved in apts that has a fitness center. Lol my kids finally got talked me into going there because they wanted to use the machines. I don't like gyms because I feel like everyone is looking at me. Well I found out that the fitness center is open 24/7. So my plan is go when nobody is there. Also to use each machine for 5 minutes and then go to the next till I can build up to more time. I even put myself on a 1100 calorie diet in which I drink protein shake daily. Just hope I can stick to it. Enough about me. Tell us about you and your weightloss journey...

Me myself am trying to get used to the diet change as Maggie said. I started 1100 calorie diet yesterday. Wasn't hard at all during the week when kids are at school. Lol lets see how I do when they are home. Like everyone says though take responsibility for what you eat and don't come up with excuses...wish me luck
