  1. 10/4 for me [emoji1380][emoji1380] I have also read that but I strongly believe it's due to returning to poor eating habits and little to no exercise surgery is a tool for success and not the only factor and some people fail to realize that my aunt had the surgery done 10 years ago and she's rained a slender 120 lbs but she walks everyday and continues to follow a low Calorie diet if she wants McDonald's she goes for the "kids meal" and not the Big Mac and large fries [emoji489] make good choices and success will be in your future congrats to you and many blessings [emoji324]

    Pre op liquid diet

    My doc said it's a hospital liquid diet that il be on starting Monday - sugar free jello , broth , sugar free Icys and a low calorie juice and lots of water he also said to buy a bag of ice from sonic and eat that when I feel hungry as it will trick my body into thinking I'm eating I hope this helped

  11. I had used this site as i had members on here saying they used it as well and had no were supposed to fax my evaluation to my doctor Friday and nothing so I waited til Saturday to call as they have business hours 7 days no answer no call back I emailed them left them messages same with my doctor and nothing - rolls eyes they did gladly accept my money and now I feel scammed; I have a 1 year old and I work fulltime so I thought wow a over the phone evaluation would be great NOTTTTT !!! Such a shame [emoji853]
  12. I emailed them 3 times left them 4 messages as well spoke to staff today and they told me it would be sent over immediately that was at 9 am - sigh [emoji17]

  14. I'm very upset but there's nothing I can do it's to late
  15. I haven't told anyone in my family they are all slender and unbothered by my everyday struggles with weight so this battle I am fighting alone
  16. Is anyone on a all liquid diet for pre-op?
  17. My sisters are so negative and I'd rather not people don't even know we're sisters it's that bad but I'm in this for me and me only so I don't feel the need to share my little secret
  18. I have not told my mother nor will I ever because she is the ring leader of critical I'm praying for inner strength to succeed in my journey as my surgery is the second week of October good luck to you and hats off for being so brave
  19. Personally I'd rather not say I've been ridiculed enough and I'm so happy with the choice i made [emoji846]
  20. Thank you so much in taking the time to write me it means so very much to me I have been in fact bullied most of my life for weight related issues especially by my family and it's very hurtful so I did not feel the need to say anything to them regarding this and it's very comfortable to know I am not alone and I appreciate you greatly for taking the time to write [emoji846] I am sending many blessings your way good luck to you and I hope you have nothing but success

    Day 1 of 14.... 9/27 sleeve!!!

    You look great cheers to you and good luck
  22. It's been very rough for me and I can relate my mother and sisters were very cruel to me and always made fun of me because of my weight. To date my sisters friends don't even know that we are related I feel as though by doing this I am taking control and very happy with the decision I have made
