You’re doing great! You don’t need hot dogs or Mountain Dew. You will absolutely feel SO SICK if you do

Mine didn’t give a carb goal either Just protein and water

Sorry but you ask me an a-hole question “did you have weight loss surgery?” You’re getting an a-hole answer

I totally disagree with there being a self imposed stigma. I didn’t tell people, not because I was/am embarrassed, but because it’s my business. Each person needs to do what’s right for them. Some people like telling others, some are more private, some might actually be embarrassed and that’s ok. There is no RIGHT way to have WLS

spouse, boyfriend/girlfriend/family heavy??
NYJenn replied to ProudGrammy's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
My husband works out like crazy and then comes home and eats 8 Girl Scout cookies. I try to explain to him how important diet is and he says “well, I worked out so it evens itself out” Um, not unless you ran a marathon. He still Eats like he has the metabolism of a 20 year old guy. -
Nope, just a half hour 1:1 talk

I got my first backhanded compliment today..."You look great, God, do you eat ANYTHING anymore?" I replied with "Yes, lots of protein"

Dealing with long days?
NYJenn replied to LiberalInAZ's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I guess we’d need to know a little more about what you’re eating on those days -
I had a couple slices of pizza before starting my liquid diet. It worked out fine for me

How are you doing with water intake? I’ve found that to be a huge issue in whether I do/not drop pounds

Questioning the surgery...
NYJenn replied to TxStar09's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
Totally agree! My kids are loving their new mom 😁 I have more energy, fewer headaches, I laugh more, I can keep up with them (well, sort of...no one has energy like little boys) -

Thank you! It hasn’t been easy, but it’s been so worth it -
Can I drink diet soda on my pre op liquid diet
NYJenn replied to Jezzabelle360's topic in Gastric Bypass Surgery Forums
There are all sorts of ways to flavor your water; fruit, cucumber, water enhancers -
I had the bypass 7 months ago. I have lost 110lbs so far. No regrets. I am still baffled about how/why people think the sleeve is the “easier” surgery. Nothing easy about either surgery
-
First few days are the hardest by far. After a couple days, it becomes sooooo much easier

Can I drink diet soda on my pre op liquid diet
NYJenn replied to Jezzabelle360's topic in Gastric Bypass Surgery Forums
No -
Half way into the meal just say “something is upsetting your stomach” or “tastes funny” or something.

My insurance only asked for a starting weight

Will I be ready in time for my gig?
NYJenn replied to Jezzabelle360's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Depends on how much moving around you do while on stage
