ok, day 4 of liquid diet my bp 120/94 faint feeling and light headed, headache is mild! All signs point to dehydration, drinking over water intake, consuming 70+ protein I am not hungry which is awesome. Allergies acting up like crazy Wth

The leftovers away, cake in snack cabinet. I do have my own ‘snack’ cabinet lol so no see no loss

That is so awesome! Love the husband supporting you so well. My husband is always so supportive, yesterday was his birthday, so I cooked him food and ate my soup 🥣 broth and cheesecake protein pudding as they had cake. Kids did dishes and I put

That’s awesome and super jealous! Allergies are kicking me in butt and day 3 of 14 of liquid diet and loosing my mind about the chance to get to my surgery and they cancel. Replying to @vilmarie.25

I am on day 3 liquid diet, surgery scheduled May 10.... I am freaking out with having my allergies stirring up with nasal and chest congestion. Surgical office said allergy medicine and micinex is ok but no antibiotics. Tested negative for COVID this morning. I will loose it if I go 2 weeks and have to reschedule sur😭🥺 Anyone else have this problem?

RNY scheduled May 10 th

I love chicken pizza, crust is ground chicken with cheese and Italian seasoning... bake (I drain and liquid) add cheese and peppers then cook till done. It’s really good and I am full on a slice usually. But I am pre surgical so not sure how I will be after.

Did I mention the emotional mess I became after I gained all that weight. My mental and physical well being are the priority

I decided to talk with my husband and children about it, my mother and my brother. Some online friends I have met through my business . I lost 30 in the first 2 months of my 6 month program. My mom, brother and husband are on board, but all asked me to reconsider and loose it naturally. I was a skinny person with crazy high metabolism until 30, received medical attention for anxiety and severe depression and poof, weight gain constantly since. I am 41 now. Always was active and was labeled medically induced morbidly obese. I have been to ‘diet doctors’ nutritionists, doctors, tried getting off the medication and gain plus all the time. I was literally doing one meal at dinner and ‘testing’ shakes and purée phase foods for the other meals. Because honestly I am terribly anxious for the liquid diet. Which I happened to start yesterday. I in total lost 50, but gained back 5-10 in a nervous dip and adding back to 3 meals. Trying the yogurt recipes (I gain with yogurt 😢) My doctors still want me to stick with the yogurt. I do know that carbs are my gains. I have my RNY scheduled May 10 and can’t wait. It’s not a secret, but I am not trying to tell anyone because it’s my body and my decision. Judgements are always made and sometimes (always) my family (aunts uncles cousins) can be completely rude. All in all, I am doing this for myself and my children, I want to live and annoy them for a long time and love the families they ave. So don’t worry about anyone else. Immediate support group small~ All I need 🥰

It’s been almost 9 months for me, it’s a 6 month program. Hospital has been working on a selective surgical schedule until recently due to the Pandemic and have been behind. I started my liquid diet yesterday. My program technically Ended in February as eligible. Don’t bank on anything so you don’t get upset. I wish you the best of luck

made protein pudding and having a bit with my soup as if it’s a meal for dinner… Red pepper tomato soup and chocolate/vanilla protein pudding tonight. I was told to try 3 days at a time then switch combinations. Thankfully I found this. Y’all are so positive and uplifting

I started today too! Having RNY on May 10! so many emotions

I am on day 1 of liquid courage and surgery is May 10! What a crazy, emotional roller coaster.
