I am 196 surgery in a week, but I am short Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Only my husband knows for these very reasons. But he can be dense to. Like for three weeks i tried to show him the diet i will be on after surgery. I kept showing him graphs and dr notes and literature and each time he zoned out and watched tv. Then he comes in as I am going to bed and says like he is Einstein. "You know you just can't order out and eat anything you want." Oh really because the doctors, nutritionist and psychologists I have been seeing for months says i can magically eat anything and it will float away. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I too for all my life get sick if i drink Water, everyone thinks I am crazy. They found out I have a hiatal hernia that may be the cause. Have you had an endoscopy? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

So its 8 days until surgery. Really struggling on liquid diet they gave me because I have IBS and cant tolerate cream of wheat or artificial sugars. Doctor is not in until tomorrow so after a horrible day of stomach issues I have been eating lean roast chicken and green Beans so that I can still go into ketosis. But I cannot stay in house all day waiting for my stomach to act up. I am supposed to be doing an all liquid diet. I am going to call doc in morning. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I am getting sleeved the 24th. Started my liquid diet today on my birthday and i cheated and ate small piece of birthday cake. Had to had a serious talk with myself. Realized how much of this is mental today. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I had to decide to tell no one but my husband, not even my teen kids because every person I have talked to has said how vicious people were to them. I do not have a supportive family at all. I know how you feel. My doctor summed it up for me and said I was extending my life and avoiding diabetes and other complications. This is a big choice and I would never tell people to do it because there are risks but you stay true to yourself. No one lives in your body. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
