Anyone else surgery date June 13th

I'm severely addicted to Splenda.... I am 3 months post of sleeve... I add Splenda to my coffee during days and my unsweetened teas!! I'm worried that it's a no no? I've tried stevia and I just can't get a taste for it [emoji30]

Anyone quit smoking and start vaping PRE OP? I quit 2 weeks ago and started vaping 0mg surgery date is not set yet

I got a call on a Monday that I would have to take a nicotine test in 2 weeks from that date so after the call I didn't smoke another cig I ran to vape store immediately and got Omg for my vape.... otherwise I was never a heavy cigarette smoker but I also vapped 6mg or 9mg liquids trying to slow down cause I knew I would have to take the test... anyway I passed on 2 weeks of 0mg and just got my approval and surgery date of June 13th

I passed my nicotine tests!!!!! Yay!! Now they said they sent the paperwork off for pre authorization [emoji4][emoji4]

Did u pass your nicotine tests? And Was ur surgeon ok with you vaping?

I have quit smoking cigs for 2 1/2 weeks now but I vape 0mg nicotine.... it hasn't been awful I don't vape a lot but just when I'm really needing a little something. And it's 0mg nicotine just butterscotch flavor. I'm still waiting on my nicotine test to come back.. I took it 3/15... I've been checking online for results non stop lol once they receive results then the surgeon will send off my paperwork.. I was never a heavy smoker though to begin with

Yes I switched to 0mg and haven't had a cig since and I actually enjoy it! I worry if I'll pass my nicotine test though... how long did yours take to come back? I took it Monday

This has been a long 6 months! I started out doing so good and making changes slow and for the better! I have also gained through out the 6 months though[emoji17] I have my last dietician apt next week and I'm feeling to a point where I can't do this anymore... I feel at a point where my minds getting strayed away. I also am a smoker and not sure when to quit I have it in the back of my mind but I'm also feeling like my insurance will deny me cause I've gained.... I've wanted this surgery so bad for my health and for my children. I love food and my treats and I worry I'll never be able to have them again [emoji17] uhhh sorry just needed to vent! Anyone else feel this way so close to end

Oh yes sorry I'm pre op I have my last dietician apt next week so we'll see what happens

I am in the EXACT same boat I have to drop 10 in 2 weeks and I'm so fusturated and thinking if I should go through with all this [emoji51][emoji51]

How are you doing on the weight? I am so worked up about it thinking I'm going to try the liquid diet [emoji51]

How r u doing?

I'm in the exact same boat!! [emoji51][emoji51][emoji51] I need to lose 10 more in 2 weeks uhhh I'm wishing I can just drink some protein shakes and work out and drop some quick uhhhh

I have gained throughout the last 5 months..... I have been slowly dropping things I've been walking a lot and it just seems like I try and I gain I'm so upset.... I'm scared my insurance will deny me... they didn't say I need to lose anything before surgery? I need to buckle down ALOT more this last month [emoji51] super stressed

I've been working on controlling calories I have my bad days though and weeks are very bad for me

I have gained through out the dietician classes [emoji17] I think I need to push myself more and like one of you said try some shakes be good to get used to them now ahead of time.... I'm super stressed my insurance will deny me

Did any of you have to require to lose or what happens if u gained throughout your nutrition classes
