I confess:

1. I had lots of white wine on my 10-day vacation, enjoyed every bit of it and still lost two pounds.

2. That I still love cooking, maybe even more as I get to try new recipes, and my family is eating healthier as a result.

3. I got rid of nine bags of clothing that no longer fit and felt good about it! But, my closet looks a little pitiful. Thank goodness for Macy's big sales!

4. I ate more than a handful of sea salt and pepper rice crisps the other night and felt guilty for a nanosecond, until I realized that it really wasn't that bad of a cheat (and my first real cheat since surgery four months ago).

5. I wish I had this surgery years ago. -- I missed out on many experiences because I used my weight as an excuse.

6. I wish I were more into exercise. I go to the gym three days a week, feel great afterwards, but can't convince myself to go more.

7. I get jealous when I see others my same weight and height losing faster.

8. I haven't found a food yet I can't eat, but I still eat too fast.

9. I am becoming a shoe-aholic. I think my feet are as small as they are going to get so it's guilt-free shopping :-)

10. That having this surgery was the best decision I have ever made.

Here goes:

1) My marriage counselor has recommended that my husband and I separate. We had issues before surgery, but they don't seem to be getting better.

2) as a result, I am craving foods- like popcorn and Mac and cheese. I ate a few bites yesterday even though I felt full.

3) I haven't exercised yet- can't seem to put it into my routine.

4). I am afraid I will undo this sleeve if I'm not careful.

5). I am listening and singing along with ABBA right now. It's one of the first things that has made me smile in days (other than my kids)

1. I confess that I've been at around 185 from 238 for about 2 months and am getting used to it and feel like this is the best I can be.

2. I confess that I only exercise about once every 2 weeks.

3. I confess that I eat when I am bored.

4. I confess that I actually get hungry.

5. I confess that I weigh daily, but I want to because I want to experience everything about my VSG journey.

6. I confess that I eat slider foods. Ice cream in my fav.

7. I confess that I should treat myself and my body better.

I confess that I have a crush on my surgeon as well...and definitely gossiped with the nurses on the hospital post-op about how cute he is! <img src='http://www.bariatricpal.com/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':)' />

I hit on my surgeon right after surgery while I was still pretty medicated...he's married with 2 kids...and my dad was standing there...lol I think I win!!

I confess- my weight loss has been slower than others on VST.

I confess- the slow weight loss' date=' is because of confession 1 and 2.

I confess- I eat too fast, can't seem to make myself eat slow enough not to slime.

I confess- can't wait to be small and feel sexy again!

I confess:

I'm mourning my clothes too. Clothes shopping=no fun for me. I actually nervous about shopping for new one's' date=' smaller size or not. I'm also sad I'm 14 days post op & returned to work I'm my same ole size, like a 50lb miracle was supposed to happen in 14 days. Nevermind I've lost 19lbs.

I confess:

I'm afraid I'll never have another normal bowel movement again.

I confess:

I'm more obsessed w/what I put in my mouth & the scale in my bathroom more than I ever was before surgery.

I confess:

I'm so intimidated by food & nervous about feeling bad, I just don't care to branch out past my Protein drinks. I'm scared.

But I'm very grateful for the confessions, & all your honesty. This app & u guys are a HUGE help! <3[/quote']

      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.
