sorry but i had left the previous message on my own page yesterday.....still learning this forum.
Went to the dr today and had my pre op stuff done.
have to drink something on sunday at noon that sounds kinda gross! lol to "clear me out" and i'm sitting here wondering what exatcly they want to clear out since i've had nothing but protien shakes and broth to eat.
but hopefully all will go well!
Hope you are doing ok.
type at ya soon!

Oh gosh....CRAVINGS!!! lol i hear ya!
I just some jello so i'm "ok" right now.
If you don't mind me asking how much weight do you have to lose? Last time i was weighed, i was at 350. that was at the end of december.
God i hate to even type that, but this whole process has been such an eye opener for me. I think i had the exact opposite of anerexia...my image of myself was so distorted that i never saw how big i really was.
Today i boiled chicken for everyone. added some carrots and onions gave the goods the the family and drank some broth. it was yummy.
having people nearby who have had the surgery as well has been a big help. and inspiration. since my boss is pretty much 7 weeks ahead of me, i ask her all sorts of questions.
if you would like we can exchange phone numbers and text or chat.
no pressure....and i hope i don't freak you out! lol the internet is a scary place.
wozers,i need to get to bed! lol
have a great day and hang in there!!

The liquid diet is going OK so far, but wow the cravings I have are crazy. Everytime I see my family eat, I just want to have one bite!!!!! Lucky you, I would love a variety in my diet right now. I can't remember if I told you my dr. started letting me have broth and my shake but absolutely nothing else. I'm on the 5th day of my liquid diet.
Good move on dinner last night, you shouldnt have to have so much temptation. I do because it's for my kids they are little still so I wouldnt be able to do that.
You are so lucky to have support with your co-workers, I'm a stay at home mom so I have been using lap-band talk for support. My couisins wife also had lap-band, and she did call me today to see how I was doing, so that was nice, she gave me lots of tips.
When I heard your insurance will pay for a tummy tuck I was shocked, but then I called my ins today to check and they said yes they would. I have a long way to go, but It's nice to know I have that option. Thanks for the info.
