It's day 4 today and I AM DYING! I NEED chocolate so bad I'm actually crying! But I tried hard the past 3 days and I don't want to ruin it. The thing is, I'm used to eating lots of chocolate to do my assignments and now I can't do this one. Deadline is less than a week and I didn't even start and its sooo hard to start. All I think about is that I need chocolate to concentrate and do all! This is hell I swear. It's very painful and a lot. I'm convinced of the importance of a pre-op diet but I feel any minute now I will break down and go buy lots of chocolate and junk. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Thank you everyone for your support and recommendations and suggestions. They were really helpful and encouraging. On the other hand, I feel great today and I've been able to work on my assignment without junk food and chocolate! So yeah it's true that everything starts hard at the beginning then it gets easier! ️ Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Yeah I'm proud of myself and thank to you guys I didn't give in! Im trying to move around n dance now :-) trying to escape the reality of my dreadful assignment! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I did t try any choco Protein shakes. The one I make everyday are green smoothies with hemp powder but I could try those and hopefully the lactose won't bother my stomach! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App I'm only having problems with chocolate and I think if it weren't for my horrible assignments then I would tolerate the agony :-) Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Hahahaha yeah I need one. I'm not from the UK. I'm going to Belgium. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

On 25 hopefully! I'm still waiting for my visa though. I can't wait to have it and be done with the pre op diet. And I didn't even think much about it since I have these stupid ugly horrible assignments! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Yeah don't worry. You've done great there. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Thank you so much! I just had chicken and some quinoa and I feel better! Prior to writing this post I called my best friend who's been supportive of my surgery but I don't think she understands what I'm going through. All she said was "ooh that's bad! Why don't u come over n have some chocolate and chocolate cake that I made? A piece wouldn't hurt!" Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Thank you Aussie girl so much for the support. I needed to hear it from someone going the same thing as I'm going through. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Ugh. When will I reach ketosis. This is taking forever :-( I don't have any chocolate Protein shakes or pudding but I'll try to go out today and buy. I'll try my best. I worked hard the past 3 days. I really wanna loose weight before surgery. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I'm afraid too buy many things then after surgery I won't tolerate them! I emailed the clinic asking and they suggested I buy some slim shakes. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Goodluck Rosie! I have only two weeks left :-) I can't wait! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Umm I don't know. I'll try to see this evening if that's possible. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Obesity solutions. Dr. Philip Vanden Borre. I would love to know someone going there as I'm going alone :-( Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

The price difference in Prague and Brussels is around 1000 pounds! So I think it's definitely worth it to have it in Prague! For me, I wanted Belgium cz its closer and I've already been there before. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

That is very true! "Whatever happens, I can't be any more miserable than I am now" Thanks :-) Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Your talk is making me relieved :-) ok then I'll go ahead with full confidence in them. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

And what about the doctor for anesthesia? When will I see him? I mean isn't he supposed to look at my tests to decide which type of anesthesia is better for me? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I will try. But yeah another reason I'm not liking this is because how come the doctor won't see me until the day of surgery? Plus, as u said its all through emails! Like how come they do the blood tests and others before 1 day of the surgery? Is this normal? ..... Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App I will try my best.

I don't know! I just want to make sure he's a professional cz anything wrong then I'll be the one to suffer... Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Haha I was like you! But my friends were asking me about the surgeon then I googled him and started to freak out! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
