I literally laughed out loud' date=' NtvTxn. Thank you! I recently had a fallout with a judgmental fat a. Each & every one of us know how long it takes to get your surgery date, right? Well this person was overheard by my 15 year old son saying "I don't know why she had to schedule her FAT SURGERY the same week as our tournament. All board members (little league softball) are required to be here to help!" Considering I was running fever & coughing from almost pneumonia at the time she's lucky I sent my husband & son to help. She unfriended me on Facebook after I got through with her. Good riddance![/quote']

What a jerk, you don't need a friend like that.

I can't wait for my best friends reaction. I haven't told her, I feel bad our friendship has been strained over others matters. I think she'll enjoy having me shop in the small section with her once she sees my weight loss. Lol.

I also don't feel like my thirst is ever quenched! I miss my Diet Pepsi! It has almost been 10

Weeks since my last one and I am very proud of that! As far as judgement I say to hell with the haters!

It's been a year since I had any type of Pepsi products. I could drink a 64oz bottle and not miss a beat lol. Once I stopped drinking soda my bloating went down a lot!

I miss drinking with meals, also it makes it so much harder to get all the Water I need. As far as people knowing, I was embarrassed about it at first, but the reaction was so positive from the few people I told. I said the heck with it, and now I'm very open about it, so far all the feedback has all been positive. The way I see it is I took the steps I needed to fix myself and become healthy, if anyone has a problem with that, then who needs them. You'll see your confidence will grow as you lose the weight and you won't even care what the haters say.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      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.
