Happy Mother's Day to all the brave sleever moms!



Recommended Posts

This is the best thing I could have ever done for myself, my kids and my husband. My 8 yo daughter wrote me a poem that said she was proud of me for being a "dare devil"

for doing my surgery. Lol, so sweet. Happy Moms Day to all the other brave Sleever moms out there! And even if you are not a mom, you are still brave superstar Sleever in my book. Enjoy this beautiful day!

Yep, truly the best thing I have ever done for myself health-wise!

That is cute that she called you a "dare devil"...my girls were 8 and 10 when I was sleeved in 2010. Now they are almost 11 and 12 and the other day my youngest called me the "Protein monster" haha.(guess maybe I harp on the Protein a bit much...) I like "dare devil" better. :)

Happy Moms Day to brave Sleever moms

mamamareli

back at ya et al :)

little vent ok????

while i was growing up my mom always "commented" on my weight

my 4 siblings were either thin or average size, so what happened to me??? :angry:

she was never very tactful about my weight "situation" :angry:

mom lives in another state - she didn't see me through my weight loss process

she saw me after i reached goal - looked at me and smiled and told me i looked "good"

she made that comment about 2 more times that day - no more :angry:

since then, she has never mentioned the accomplishment of losing 105 lbs or that i look good or nice :(

whereas before - she always "mentioned" me being overweight!!!

i guess certain memories stay in your head, whether you are 9 or 59!!!! :angry:

my mom is now 83, and i do love her

happy moms day to you all, my mom, and me and my daughter too - who has made me the "proudgrammy" 3X's over!!!

by the way Janice - doggies do count for mothers' 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.
