Text Buddy For Pre Op Weight Loss... Your In Your Late 20's- Early30's And Female!



Recommended Posts

Hello,

I realize there is a mentor area, but I want to find someone who is pre-op. This way we are nutritionally similar.

ME:

5'5"

305

30 years old

Mother, wife and student

Need to loose 20 before surgery- not on a liquid diet.< /p>

I will have my surgery nov-jan, not sure yet

Live on the west coast

looking for someone who will text randomly daily to find out if I am logging on MFP. I do best when logging, but lately I don't like documenting. I also know that I DO NOT want to let others down.

You:

female

late 20's-early 30's

working on weight loss

pre-op

Have something I can help keep you accountable with? (if you want, I would love to reciprocate)

I would love to learn a little about you. Also, feel free to ask any questions you have about me. Lets help each other out!

I can't wait to hear from you! :)

Best,

Sannah

Hello!

Pleasure to meet you!! Your surgery is soon! Where do you live? Curious what our time difference is like? I am in Oregon. Sounds like we have some things in common!

Best,

Sannah

Hi

I will be 32 Thursday

5'7" 236 lbs

Married for year and half

Two kids (boys 9&10)

I'm currently on 3 month diet required by ins. It sounds dumb but during this 3 month diet I really need to maintain because insurance won't cover if I don't. However I am looking for encouragement because I get impatient and discouraged. I would love to support someone else.

      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.
