  1. Turns out the multivitamin isn't as great as I had thought dosage is three pills and they are so slow to resolve . In the same brand I have the b12 and they resolve fast and arnt bad at all. I go today for my first appointment with the surgen and hope to be released to eat or something good lol I'm so lost hehe
  2. I was supposed to start taking all my meds fraud ago and have been terrified of trying to swallow them ( I have always had problems where pills want to get stuck). Yesterday I found an amazing product.... Just not sure if it has everything in it that I need it to have as far as a multivitamin. Its a fast disolving on the tongue multivitamin,from wallmart. So hopefully it goes down without a problem
  3. Congrats to you both!!! Way to go we are all pretty close in weight so it will be nice to watch as we all go through together .
  4. You got this!! I'm excited to hit the 227 mark (not far from it now but that's the smallest I had been able to get down to since having kids. And it had been a while since I was even close to that weight. 281 when my primary referred me to the obesity Dr 6 /7 months
  5. 242 by my scale before surgery ,230 this morning. Woohoo!! We are on a roll!
  6. Mia,so far I'm down a little over 5 lbs since surgery but still on full liquid diet. I just can't seem to drink enough so hopefully tomorrow the Dr will release me to add other things because I'm so freaking tired. It seems like I have a cup upto my mouth 1/2 the day and mucho stays full. Lol I don't even understand it. I'm probably taking in maybe 16 oz a day . I wishi could just hook up to if fluids here at the house and not have to worryabout it. I went grocery shopping last night and found 3 different sugar free popsicles that look tasty just haven't felt up to trying one yet. They did have a sugar free chocolate onNext » Fast Reply es too (it was hard not to buy them lol ) glad to hear,you sound like your doing great
  7. Ugh my phone is back to backspacing out of here and not saving anything I had typed ugh
  8. Good luck belize,praying everything goes smoothly for you keep us updated. Mia,have you tried the low calorie gatorade2 ? They brought me that in the hospital and so far the orange flavor I can keep down without a problem glad to hear your doing well. Just be careful at work today and don't try to over due it. could yall please post your post op vitamins and if your able uptake them. I think I keep getting the wrong kind.and can't stand the taste of the flinstone chewables .
  9. How are you doing now? You have a few days more experience than we do. Would love to hear any tips and tricks and how your doing with pain management and weightloss ?
  10. This cough is still going to be the death of me. Coughing up some dark nasty stuff when it does come up but super painful and causes cramping after the fact. Pain is so so but most are just the crampy type pains that I'm getting after coughing. As far as the diet I'm still on full liquids (no protein shakes until Thursday. Before the surgery my fav. PProtein shake was premier protein ,boost and then the muscle milk. But I only like them room temperature,otherwise I think when they are cold it brings out a lot more of the protein taste. If you have never tried premier ,do a searchonline and they will send you one for free also comes with a coupon. 30 grams of protein,5 carbs and I think it was 160 calories
  11. I was able to put on my own clothes yesterday but today has been amazing because Iv is completely out and I was able to shower .that was a lovely moment. Now I can run around with nothing attatched. The worst thing about this whole this is this horribly juicy cough .it hurts so dang bad to try to cough
  12. Dr came in and said xrays looked great and I got my first tray of food ( nothing edible except the hot tea) but they will be taking me off of the iv fluids and pain meds today and I will be released tomorrow
  13. Nice to hear your feeling a little better.I believe I only have 4 spots on my belly
  14. Glad they are keeping you another night. That way they can make sure your doing good..I'm here till Monday.temp just came back at 99.2 so ihope nothing is going on with that. They wanted me walking 100 ft. 3 times a day and I walked 1000 feet each time . 4 times today. So far no release of gas .not sure why but this page keeps crashing on my phone.I had to copy and paste this 5 times just to post.good luck with everything. Hoping for a speedy recovery
  15. How are yall feeling Todday? Did everything go smoothly and as planned
  16. Wishing you the best of luck excited this morning? I am over the top excited but so tired I feel loopy - hopefully they get the ball rolling shortly .
  17. Thank you! good luck today i'm running behind as usual. have to be there at 7:30 for surgery at 10.
  18. Thank you both I'm in a much better/brighter mood now. I went ahead and dropped her off at a local motel for the night so i could get time in with my family. 1 more day to go !
  19. 11 pounds in 3 days,WOW congrats .I am 2 days shy of 2 weeks and have only dropped 12 pounds.but have lost 41 lbs since my dr. said she would refer me to the obesity clinic. I have a friend that came to stay with me during this time and i'm so ready to drop the friendship and never speak to her again. (she is obese as well) but she basically stays in the kitchen snacking and eating all day. mess mess and more mess. and to top it all off she says shes starving and i have had to take her to mcdonald's 5 times luckily i haven't broke my diet not even once.I have been cooking healthy lean meals and she keeps coming in my kitchen cooking junk,chips and drinking sodas and still even though shes eating 12 times a day she talks about food constantly. I can't take it much longer!!! I think my frustration with her is driving me mad. yesterday I missed my 14 year old banquet for football it just totally slipped my mind and his . sorry for venting I'm just annoyed
  20. Mia,wishing you safe travels glad to see someones on track with no time left because even after posting yesterday about not being packed i never did get off my butt to do any packing.Ritcheycop,Mad respect for you!!!! I have 3 and don't think there is any way I could handle any more.luckily your 14 year old is helping lots. I was horrible in raising these monstarz and have never made them do many chores so now they are lost when i ask them to help.
  21. agreed,but i'm a little behind and haven't even started packing ...I really need to get to that since it will be for myself and my husband for 3 days.luckily the kids can pretty much pack for themselves (going to stay with nana)and i can just check out what they have
  22. Wow,Thats pretty quick. I'm sure everything will go great Good luck!!
