Recommended Posts

This is my first time posting. Im married from NJ but moving to FL. No kids. Im 30...a Virgo..like to travel...long walks on beach...oh wait wrong website..hahaha.

Anyhoo. Ive been blessed with the opportunity to have my surgery with Dr.G. Alveraz about a week before Christmas. I look forward to it. Ive tried it all to lose weight ..you understand me on this point. I want to be healthier. I dont have children but I will in a few years and i want to be as healthy as possible. I believe that i am mentally prepared for the challenges that will come my way. I am prepared to fight this dragon. ;-)

What else?... hmmmm...i look forward to having more options as far aa clothing goes but im also as excited to be more physical. Hit me up anytime.

I look forward to your friendship...

:-)

Thanks for replying so quickly. I appreciate it! ;-). Yeah i would love to set up a group for confident women/ men who are persistent and consistent with healthy living..positive encouragement...etc. Even though Im overweight right now I feel good about myself. Im confident, i know i can turn it out...lol. so this weightloss is for my health and future pregnancies. If we can find some cool Pretty Babies who would be willing to join. That would be. Awesome! Using this site is a bit of a challenge cause im using my phone. Im thinkinh pinterest meets VSG...what do u think?

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
