gloharmar, I see it is tomorrow. Good luck and prayers are with you. The best advice I got....... get up and walk as soon as possible after you wake. As soon as possible. And keep walking as much as you can stand it. Even after you get home, walk. The more you move, the faster the gas will go away! Drink your Water, sip, sip, sip, walk, walk,walk. Tomorrow is the begining of a new life. You can do this. Just remember that! And if you have questions, ask! OK??

Again, good luck and let us know how you are when you are able!

Yes, it's tomorrow and I'm happy and scared at the same time. If I could get pass the needle (IV), I'd be on cloud 9. I have gained so much knowledge from you all. Thanks so much. I'm still working on the "ticker", LOL.

Oops, forgot to update y'all. Went to LB and tried on clothes and I'm down 3 1/2 sizes all over. When I get the other 1/2 off, I'll be smaller than when I met my hubby. I guess maybe I am losing inches. I didn't know that happens when your weight loss slows down. THanks, that helps!

Hi to all!

Way to go lo2us! I bet not any of your clothes fit. My are nearly falling off. I have to go to my smaller sizes now. I will love to lose all this weight and get rid of the big clothes instead of storing them, incase i need then again. I bet all of you know what i am talking about.

Lynn, how is school? How are you?

Sugarbear, hope you are having fun out there!

Gloharmar, good luck! You will be fine! Post as soon as you can to tell us how you are.

Liasa g and hippmom you two are too funny. I hate the slim thing so bad, it look and feels like snot. lol

Like i have said and still will say, YOU ALL ARE THE BEST!!!!!!

Hello ladies...just a quick note while I am at school and my internet runs faster here than it does at home...

Loving my job so far...these big kids are little kids in disguise...they are older but still soooo elementary...

Doing okay with my loss...still working and trying to work hard on doing better about eating at school...Everyone is amazed at how much I have lost...One colleague told me today I was a shadow of my former self...Feels good for people to brag on you...but I am not very good at taking compliments...I usually don't quite know how to take them...I guess I will learn...

Talk to you again soon...

Hi Glo. Hope you are doing well. alk and move as much as you can. Walk up and down your driveway if nothing else, just keep moving. Drink your broth, Water, ect. You might even want to use a heating pad. It was a confort to many of us. Keep us posted.

Lo2us, congrats on the size change!! Keep going!!

Lynn, glad it is going good at school. You may enjoy this change more than you thought.

Just checking in on you guys. I have to go now, off to a ball game. Can't be late! I will be home tomorrow evening. Take care everyone.

Susan, I saw that! At least you are talking bout something GOOD! lol

Morning everyone.

Way to to Shannon, I'll bet you are shopping for a new wardrobe for school, aren't you?

Lynn..... a "smaller" shadow of your former self. Makes you feel good, don't it? Just say thank you and be done with it. (then you can blush when you get around the corner. lol)

Glo, how are you this morning? Are you walking alot? Drinking your Water? That's important.....

We took the little man to six flags yesterday. I have one word for it. HOT! and being the dare devil that I am, I had to ride as many rides as he did. His Dad took him on the Water rides. (I don't like squishy shoes) I took him on most all the rest. There were some rides he did on his own. The lines were not very long and we just watched to make sure he got on and off the rides. I know.... he's seven, but you don't know what kind of sicko's are our there. Anyway, twisted my knee somehow. I think it was on the roller coaster. It was right after we rode the last one that it started hurting. Very stiff and throbbing this morning. I guess exercise is out for a few days. Everyone keeps telling me that I need to slow down. I keep getting this..."You are too old for that!" I guess they are right. lol Hurt my back on the trampoline the other day. Wimped around for three or four days after that. I hate getting old. lol Hush, Susan.

I better get off. Yall have a good day.

      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.
