At least you are happy about not being hungry!!! Is the jug little and brown?? lol I know you got that! lol I still have most of my little brown jug from surgery. I think I took about 2 maybe 3 doses. And I took them at nite.

I'm glad you got fixed. Maybe, I need to clairfy that last statement. Naw, you know what I mean. lol

If you need anything, I'm just a phone call away!

later,

lisa

That's cool. Did the procedure bother you much? Details, woman. Did it take long? What time did you get there?

I'm glad you are gardening. Mine isn't even broke up yet. That may be a good thing. Looks like we may be in for a rough night tonite. I'm still having trouble with head hunger. I wish I could whoop that.

have not heard from jana in a while and she wasn't at the meeting

i just flower garden i don't do veggies i have really enjoyed the master gardener class my hubbie and i are both taking it we graduate on march 8 but then have to do 50 hours of community wk before we are actually certified mg.

the procedure took a little longer than i thought it would i think i went into or room around 7:30 and was in recovery around 9:15 and left within minutes after that. i am just sore but nothing llike the orginal surg. i think i remember dr k saiying she fill it up good and i'm pretty tight but i'm doing mainly liquids today and its hard to tell how tight nothing was said about a follow up visit i guess i will call mon and get appt in 5-6wk in case i need a fill

hey lisa just read on the other board bout your meds that is GREAT

i know the head hunger is bad really try to get that protien in hard Protein not just shakes that fills the little tummy up and helps a lot longer

and stay busy i guess those 2 things are the only advise i have to pass along.

Not much to report today.... Tanner was out of school today, so I wasn't online much. I do have a few things to report today ...... I did several things. Played basketball, dodge ball, kick ball, and rode my bike today. And I tried to clean house. Gave up on that! Think I got my exercise in??? And the number one thing to report today, I hate my scales!!! They aren't moving as fast as I want them. Well, I'm off for the rest of the nite, catch you tommorrow, k?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
