When I reached my highest weight I knew I needed to do something so I quit drinking soda and quit fast food that was 7 months ago and I lost 15 lbs just doing that, once I decided on surgery I started pre-op dieting right away b/c I need to lose 5%(15lbs). I'm down 26 lbs from highest which feels great! I have 10 days till my surgery and am sticking to my pre-op diet as best I can. I haven't had last supper syndrome, I've had enough big meals in my life, thats how I got here! I just wanna set myself up for sucess in banded life. Just remember: Nothing tastes as good as being healthy feels!

just remember nothing tastes as good as being thin feels! Sorry about the run-around with your insurance & dr.s! I am self pay so there was no run around for me. I'm 10 days aways and have lost 8lbs on preop diet so far. High protein can also be nuts, eggs, lean meats, cheese, and protein shakes. If you wanna stick to chicken breast since its so lean-go to your butcher at vons/safeway and see if they have pollo asado which is marinated chicken and its delicious. Hope that helped! good luck!!

wow 30lbs, f'in-A man thats great. Even now Im the lightest I've been in a looong time
Thanks for the compliment on my tat. I have more but I'll take pics once I start losing some real weight 
yeah the OC is hard, I think all So-Cal is bad like that SD is too. I don't think I'll be vengeful but I'm sure that I'll be a handful till I get used to being thin-ner

How often did you weigh yourself on pre-op diet?

I know better then to do it everyday, but I wanna make sure I'm getting results! How often do you weigh yourselves and what time ?(morning before anything, middle of the day?) -

Vanity replied to Vanity's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
yeah weighing everyday takes a toll on you emotionally, and I just can't take the dissapointment! once a week or even every few days at least you know where you stand and can see your progress. weighed today -2lbs ::off to update ticker:: -
yeah its funny how losing weight makes you more aware of who you really are. Your whole life you just indentify with being fat (at least I do) and the prospect of not having that be an integral part of your life is crazy! Its going to be a strange transition! I mean I'm the really funny and pretty fat chick- once the weight is gone, I'll be the hot chick (I know stuck up but my name isn't Vanity for no reason lol!) but the thought of being the hot chick scares me! The same for guys, big guys are the good time guys-once you turn in to prey for women vultures its going to be weird. anyways as for me, I've lost another 2 lbs on pre-op diet

its in lemon grove/college area, I left you a message with a link -
I went through a personal blockage with heels a year or so ago. I had always told myself I was too fat for heels, and I could only wear flats. BUT I finally told myself I could wear whatever shoes I want!! So I gradually went to heels. I started with wedges (still my fave) and on to to pumps from there. I'm 5'9 and DH is 5'11 he doesn't like me being taller but I dont give a flying f$*$ :ihih: Rock those heels ladies!
