What's your reason for your obesity
zallykatz16 replied to Siyaa Ela's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
My reasons for being overweight are many: Genetics, poor eating habits, fast food, and sweets. Once I retired I gained even more because I wasn't doing much which let to depression. I got help for depression and finally started feeling better. My health has suffered from my weight so I knew it was time for a change. Being a yo yo dieter I knew that I had to stop and get help. thus I decided to get WLS. I have surgery in 7 days on 9/11. -
I love pumpkin too. So I will try some of these ideas after my surgery 9/11.

what to buy for preop
zallykatz16 replied to jchilion2589's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I am on week two of pre-op diet. I don't like this diet at all. Its 3 protein shakes a day and only sugar free jello or Popsicle. I get hungry a lot. I do wonder if my hunger is from my brain versus my stomach. I'm a week out for surgery (9/11) and I'm just really anxious. I hope this week goes fast. -

Hello September bypass buddies, It's one week from tomorrow that I have surgery (9/11). I know some of you are having surgery this week. So, I wish you the best of luck. I'm also getting very nervous so I am trying to keep myself busy. I look forward to hearing you all after your surgeries. Cheers, -

I started my pre-op liquid diet today instead of Monday because I was ready to start. I am finding my tough times and I am making a list of things I can do instead of eat. -

Hi @monica8773 , My surgery is 9/11 and I start my pre-op diet on 8/28. I have tried premier protein, Click protein powder, Bariartic Pal fusion powder and Medifast powder. My surgeon has me taking premier protein and I do like it. Hope this gives you an idea of different protein powders out there. -
Experiencing Panic Over Bypass Surgery
zallykatz16 posted a topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
08/24/17 Good Afternoon, I'm having a panic attack over my surgery. I just found out that I have to check in at 6 am in San Francisco which means we have to leave here by 4:40 am. My husband will drive me down but he won't stay with me because he hates hospitals. His first wife diet from heart complications in 2006 and he just can;t be in hospitals for long now. So, I will be alone before my surgery which has got me upset. I will be in the hospital for 3 days with no one to come see me because I am so far away. No one can drive down to see me because all my friends and my brother are working. I'am just feeling lost today and I have no where else I can express my feelings. Thanks for letting me vent. -

Breaking up with best friend and worst enemy
zallykatz16 replied to pp11150330's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Getting counseling will be of great benefit to you after surgery. the surgery fixes the body but not the mind. I am in counseling also, I find it really helps me stay grounded. Good Luck -
