I also say do it. You have other family (you said you had a meeting) let them know you r doing the surgury, If sis goes into labor one of you needs to get me there. You won't be able to lift (or anything that resembles a cruch) till inside tummy heals. But by the time babies come home you'll be on the road to recovery and looking for something to keep you busy. Good luck in you decision.pkease let us know how everything works out

Crystal light my hubby bought chicken noodle soup that I strained the broth had more flavor s/f/popcycles. I could not have yogurt or pudding or fudge pops. I did have s/f. The second week. I got to add protein shakes(only) then 4 days after that mush mush now I'm on soft food. I'm 3 weeks out.

So today I stopped by my work to confirm my return to work date.. I was surprised by all the comments I was getting. 95 percent of the people don't know what surgury I had.. (I also had ulcer and hernia) and they know I was seening a. NUT So it felt hood t hear cuz I see myself everyday mad dont notice.

I took so much stuff and didn't use any of it... They give you slipper six.. You have an iv so a robe doesn't work I slept all day they also bring you soap and toorhbrush/paste. I had my phone note book and pen.

Lol shelly

I had hernia ulcer and he fixed all in one shot... Easy answer for those pesky questions..

Pls I will al so talk openly to those who ask.. One friend at work has backed out 3times.. Watching me she is ready and I am her partner in WLS

Ok heres what I did...I sent it up like this.. I started talking about exercise and walking.. Then about seeing a nut.. Talked about food changes I was making.. Life changes etc.. No lie it was all happening.. I told one. Sister(she had wls) and 2 friends at work.. I had lots of apts(also true). Most of us have heart burn which also ulcerates our edphogus.. That is what I was out for.. Digestive issues(true? Yes).. They don't need to no all the details... When you lose the weight you have already set them up with the nut and exercise and with alot of help from nut team I'm not giving up now.

Don't want to scare you but I just got my bill 49689.54. And that was just the WILD and hospital stay... I've paid about 500. For test etc... So look around... Maybe you could do the 2 week fast. And see what happens.

I was doing my 2week fast packing my bag and on the Two days before sir guru I was calling to find out if I could have the ELI'S.. It was a heart thing with me had the extra tests done the week before and no one sent report on.. I went to the hospital they did the WLS.. Two days after I got home I got a call saying I was released to have surgury.. I said well that's good cuz I am home recuperating... A## clowns

I use slim fast high protein(20gr). I'll mix a I ax of injury protein powder(it takes time to shake it good). It's real thick like a milk shake..put in freezer for 15 minutes BONus

Enjoy Wow I feel like I wrote that post... I'm not a year out but the rest is me. Sometimes I'll weigh myself 4 times in a row. And not yet post surgury but befor if my weight stayed the same I was like yeah I can more.. How much can I eat before I gain a pound.. I am trying to get out of that cycle. Scales can be our worst enemy.

I have been whining for years how much I hate our small tub. Since my journey started in Feb my tub has gotten bigger. I can fit both arms I'm at the same time, and there's no belly mountain above the bubbles.. lol just thought that was a cool non food victory.

Your so young, if you have seriously tried to lose weight and cant. The sleve is a great TOOL. It dosnt make you lose weight you work with it. It might be harder because of your age (going out etc). But at your age and weight you need to do something.. I only take 2 Flintstone vitamins a day. Have gotten of most other meds and feel so much better. Have gone out to eat and have become a "cheep date" bonus at your age. You can't drink for the first year and no soda pop. But you'll have so much fun doing new things it won't matter. I hope this has helped a little. Everyone's story is different, but we all want to be healthy and who's we had done it sooner. Good luck.

Today I ate..766 calories,66 carbs,30 fat,50 protein. Does that sound about right.. I feel pretty good, they were all smaller "meals". This is a hard "game" to understand the rules.

Great advice thankyou

Oh sorry miss read time thought it was Aug 5th post. Catch you on post op.

Well you should be home now. How are you feeling?

That is true hurts like 7734

I am finally eating"food". Who thought burger, ricotta cheese must, katsup in the blender could taste so darn good? Now how do you stop!...my tummy says NO but my head and taste buds say YES.. how do you all deal with desire to keep eating. I only cook 1/4 cup only eat 1/2 of it.

Thank you

Well I have lost 17 pounds since (7/22) thought it should be more don't know if I'm eating to much or not enough. Sure would be nice to have a tummy window so I could SEE if I'm full.

Teesaa Haven't seen you on hope that means you got the ok.. good luck let us know own how you make out

Slvarltx, Great job great attitude. Keep it up.
