Driving myself crazy! :/



Recommended Posts

I am hooked on watching you tube videos and looking at before and 1 year post op photos. That I think I am driving myself crazy! I had a friend many years ago that had surgery and she gained all her weight back plus more :( I don't want to be like that! That is my biggest fear!!!

I am finally having my surgery on June 27th at 8am. I can't wait it's something I have wanted for so many years! It's just around the corner I can almost touch it with my finger tips. Nut yes still feel so far sway! 19 days and counting!!

But will this really work for me? Am I really going to finally be happy and healthy! Will I finally be able to get married and have a family that i have always wanted!!!?? I think I'm driving myself crazy!!! I'm really obsessed right now!!!!

I did the same thing for a few weeks.. Sometimes we take on more than we need to.. I banned myself from this site for about a week. It gave me time to clear my head and think about something other than my surgery. It really helped. Obviously I'm back now and know that what's meant to be will be. I have all the faith in my surgeon and his team. And I know i never want to be where I am today again.. And I know that determination is enough to keep it from happening.

You mean August 27th? And WOW.. is it really 19 days.. I haven't counted the days yet.. I was just going by the weeks. I start my liquid diet on Tuesday.. I have my EDG on Monday.. How about you?

IT'S YOUR HEAD. It's MY head. It's OUR heads!!!

The sleeve does what the sleeve does, but it does NOT change our heads. I believe (I do not KNOW, but I believe) that people who slide back have lost the head wars, and have found the many ways to 'cheat the sleeve'. Me... I am pissed at what I've let food do to me. I am better than that.

Work on your head and the first corner to turn is to overcome "linging" for your lost love...

This surgery is a tool for you to use and maintain your weight loss....It is not like any other diet or program you have been on...Your sleeve will force you to eat less..And if you keep it that way and eat lots of Protein and then veggies, fruit and limit carbs....You will succeed..

I am not saying that there won't be rough times..Addicted to food is like any other addiction..It will always be in the shadows....

Figure out what brought you to this place in your life and work at it every time it rears its ugly head.....You will succeed.....You have taken the first step and that you should be very proud of!!!!! :)

I'm glad I made them because I can watch then and see how my emotions are progressing. ESP since my day 4 one I think. It was the hardest time and good to know I got past it and its getting more and more worth it :)

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
