Please Somebody Help Me!!!!!!!
belliemae replied to angelsvoice's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Sonya, I emailed my address so you can get me that way. I should have given you my number and I will. Email me seperate from this and I will. Just had my morning shake oh yummy! I am not sure if living alone would be better or worse for me but my husband cooked something for my kids on Sunday that smelled so good I had to cover my nose, and I was on another floor. I think if they would lock me in a jail cell for the 2 weeks I would do great and probably enjoy the break. Stacey -

bon - started my journey on Jul 20 07 and I will be banded in 10 days, the time flies, easy for me to say now but it really does. It also seems as you wait there always seems to be something coming up, your next appt, psych eval, dietin appt, bloodwork I also tried to slowly lose some on my own. So get really involved and you will so surprised. lol -

Angel - I have to check in at 9am. I did my prep on Mon, and I might say that their scale weighed in at 4lb more than it should have. I go to Malley's office in the morning to do whatever you do last minutes. How have you lost 49lb so far? I have lost 20lb since fall, but I must say I decided 2 years ago that I would not diet again so it has been very slow. I have done much better today with my preop diet, I thought I was going to freak yesterday. I have found that if I do not allow myself to feel actual hunger I am much more reasonable, as soon as real hunger hits and I am even 30mins behind on my shake I start to panic about needing something to chew. I have not been very nice to be around, my husband and kids are leaving me alone - very wise! I would love to chat and perhaps exchange phone #'s. Keep up the good work. -

Hey Angel, I guess I will be seeing you in the hospital - the one that starts with an M, correct. I am Doc Malley's 12pm. I too am struggling with the pre op. Too much sweet. Yesterday I had a little trouble and ate two of the wontons that were in my broth from the Chinese rest., and then I ate a cold hot dog while standing in the refrigerator door, I do not eat hot dogs ever, let alone a cold on, and to top it all off I ate 2 bites of oatmeal cake that were just staring at me. So far so good today, but I am surprised it got to me so, I just needed to chew. I felt like a junkie getting a fix. We can do this, I also heard the first three days are the worst, we will see.

March 27th surgery date! Anyone else excited about being on liquid for Easter?
belliemae posted a topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
Yes, No chocolate on Easter, unless it is in the form of a shake:omg:. I am hoping that all this time I have waited for this make it easier. It still seems far off, so the my current biggest worry is the 2-week liquid diet. Any recommend a specific shake for flavor, and do they all have to be sweet? -
