Yes, I did just drop caffeine. Actually, Pepsi in particular. I was in the mind frame of "well I won't ever be drinking this again, I better live it up!" I feel like I'm drinking a lot of water but much of it is flavored (crystal light) so maybe that's adding to the headache. I was soooo miserable last night I ate (well, sucked on so they would last) a few semi-sweet choc chips and my headache went away enough for me to sleep. However, I felt very guilty!!!

I am just finishing day two of the liquids and my headaches are killing me. I am allowed h2o, broth, protein shakes and SF Popsicles or jello too. Oh and I can have chicken or a lean cuisine under 300 cal. once per day. I had chicken noodle soup tonight and ate a few of the noodles What's the worst is the dang headaches!!! No excedrin allowed and Tylenol is not working as I hoped. I did notice this morning that my tummy appears more "deflated" than usual so that's good! I am 235 so very close to you.

100 lbs!!!! Oh my goodness! You are amazing!!!!!

50lbs in 10 weeks!!!! Amazing! I am a week pre-op and would go bald to lose 50 in 10 weeks. Lol Best of luck!!!

I too am so excited. In a weird way I get kind of sad too... Why isn't my body good enough? Why can't I just love myself with all my weight flaws? And then I think about all of the times I have cried over my weight, been embarrassed to go in public, been humiliated to clothes shop, and then I realize I'm doing this surgery BECAUSE I love myself and want my life to be full and wonderful.

Try to talk to your primary care/family doctor... If you have a history of weight related issues maybe insurance will at least consider that as nutrition counseling???

I'm on June 30th! Start protein shakes Tuesday for a week
