Someone needs to come pick up my scale!! I'm only 9 days post op and I keep weighing myself!! I like what I'm seeing, but I don't want to be a person that needs to see the numbers. I haven't seen my surgeon yet and I'm not sure how off my scale is compared to his and I don't want to set myself up for disappointment either... That's my rant for the day..lol

what is your neighbors phone number I will have them come and get it and only give it back to you on Fridays LOL.

I usually only weigh on Monday and Fridays.

I have a sister who ways every time she pees I think, she is obsessed worse than any of us could be and she hasn't had (or ever will have, acoording to her, wls) she is just always on some radical diet or another, As many crazy things she has done, it makes wls seem kinda mild. Right now I think she is doing HCG injections.

I completely understand. I weigh daily, probably at least 3 times per day but usually more. My doctor did tell me he does not want me to weigh myself except at his office but that is not going to happen. I am definitely a slave to the scale right now I am almost 6 weeks out.

I weigh every time I step foot in the bathroom, no matter the reason! And I write it all down, too! It's a great food replacement therapy I think lol my brother is in pharmaceutical sales and is getting me one of those fancy digital one like at the dr's office. I can't wait!!!

I didn't own a scale until after Christmas, but I have managed to stay off of it. My main reason for having the surgery was for better health and the weight loss is the added bonus. Right now I am obsessing with the health. I notice so much every single day.....that is reward enough, for now!

      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.
