I'm pre op and doing 4wks of the 2 wks pre operation diet.. My son(21)and I were in town picking up some things I /we needed.. As we were getting ready to leave town I said "wanna get some fast food"(I was j/k) and .. He just looks at me n shakes his head no.. I laughed reached over n squeezed his hand n said thank you for being supportive and helping me be strong Munky

I love Sobe Life Waters.. Fuze Slenderize.. Like someone already mentioned.. Bai are good Munky

I can't help.. My doc told me I had to be off cigz for 2 months before I could even start any of the other stuff.. I quit cold turkey back in February and haven't smoked since.. But then my interview ended up in ICU for 3wks after her surgery over 10yrs ago Munky

I was reading up on that and read its cyclic.. It will grow back.. Munky

Good for you for catching yourself.. Just goes to show how much we eat without thinking about it.. And yes you're so lucky to have family support! Munky

Well, hopefully by the time you feel comfy enough to get down n dirty with someone you feel comfy enough to talk about your weight loss n how you're a lil insecure about being naked in front of someone.. Munky

Is there a particular reason you're asking for fruit juices or just because you need some flavor to get your "water" down? Like I struggle drinking plain Water but love Life Waters flavors Munky

I feel like you 2 need to sit down and have a very good conversation to find out why he feels the way he does. If you really love him and he you, maybe counseling to have someone help you both work through it.. It's definitely a big life change.. If he's not willing to go to counseling then you know where you stand with him.. Munky

Thank you for sharing that Munky

The first step in fixing a problem is seeing there is one.. Good for you.. You got this Munky

I started mine last Monday.. It's going good although I can feel my emotions roller coastering.. Not sure if anyone told you but when you go into ketosis that can happen.. My diet consist of all my Protein gotten through shakes n I'm allowed to chose up to 6serv from a list consisting of oatmeal, sf pudding or Gelatin, vegg Soup or 98% ff cream of soup, baby carrots, cucumbers, broccoli, & tomatoes, applesauce... I just bought 70 boxes of sf pudding.. LoL Munky

Thank you so much for sharing your journey.. It helps! You're doing awesome.. CONGRATS! keep up the great job Munky

Fantastic! Munky

Greek yogurts are high in Protein.. My preference is oikos either the regular or triple zero ones.. Munky

I'm sitting here totally giggling at myself.. I'm on this pre surgery diet.. I only have a very few things I'm allowed to select off to eat up to 6 serv a day in addition to my 4 Protein drinks .. Wanna know what I'm "cheating" with... Eating spaghetti squash with Chipotle chili seasoning ???? not cake, not Pasta, not chocolate.. Spaghetti squash.. LoL ???????????? Munky

YaaaaY.. I love red and I'm sure you look great in it!! Good for you Munky

Oh I've had that happen even being fat.. The more worked up and turned on you are the more "elongated" your vaginas becomes.. More foreplay might help Munky

Maybe make sure you use some good lube n work up to it with a nice amount of foreplay.. Is it possible she's feeling sorta uncomfortable with her new body n how she looks? Some people start to be self conscious about the loose skin n stuff Munky

If you read the I ingredients there is whey there too.. I love the Premier.. But I also use the Syntrax nectar & Matrix.. The Nectar is what my wls keeps in the office to for patients to buy.. They have lots of good flavors.. Munky

I'm not giving you hell, I'm simply pointing out a different way of thinking. And curious. Why did you NEED something off your plan? Just as there is a huge difference between cheat and choice, there is a big difference between NEED and WANT. Spaghetti squash is a great choic nutrtionally but not neccessarily soon post op. The stringy texture was a no no on my plan for three to four months. Same with string cheese, celery, asparagus... LMAO.. I know you're not.. I meant I was going to tag you to tease.. Just playful shit.. My choices for food is.. Veggie Soup which sucks and I'm going to buy stuff to make my own.. Greek yogurt which I love.. But veggies wise is.. Baby carrots, cukes, tomato, broccoli (which I'm not a big fan of), sf pudding, sf Jello,.. And I'm kinda guessing their keeping it like that for people that get overwhelmed and end up making bad decisions.. But I am going to call in the am n talk to my nut about it all.. This is just week 1 of a 2wk diet they want me to do for 4 wks n don't even have a surgery date yet.. I'm not post op .. I'm pre and no date even yet but everything is complete and they just ha to submit to my insurance.. My next appt is 20th.. *fingers crossed* Munky

Why is that carby? Munky

Lmfao.. @@LipstickLady I was totally going to tag you n say go ahead n give me hell.. @WLS.. I can be childlike.. In playfulness.. It's all good though.. I love sghetti squash too.. It's just not on the very short list I'm allowed.. But I'm pretty sure if I absolutely needed to have something different.. That was a good choice.. But I am going to call my nut tomorrow and ask some questions.. Munky

I haven't had my surgery yet, but I've had some of those, am I going to be able to do it thoughts. Then I think, use my stubbornness.. I quit smoking cold turkey back in February because I want this.. So, I'm using the same determination now to follow this pre surgery diet I began a week ago.. I cheated.. I ate some spaghetti squash! Lmao.. That cracks me up.. Cuz I'm wrapping my head around these changes and now cheating to me is.. Eating squash!.. Sounds like you're a pretty determined strong person.. Look at it like a career you're going after you got this Munky

Are you diabetic? .. Are you having any other symptoms? Munky Maybe call ask a nurse.. Tell them about the surgery and how you're feeling and see what thy suggest? Munky

Are you Journaling.. Are you being completely honest with yourself about how much you're really eating? I know if I don't journal it's easing for me to lose track of exactly how much and what I'm eating.. Are you eating Pasta, bread, potatoes, not even gonna ask about candy or Desserts because you said "not eating too much sugar" but you are eating it.. You might want to start keeping a journal to really see what you're doing.. food luck Munky
