Not from me! Actually it's almost empty, coworkers have taken care of it. I walked out of the breakroom this morning chomping on a pickle (allowed this week only on my pre-op) and one of my lab girls started yelling 'what are you eating, don't you going cheating' til I showed her my pickle :D love that I work with such amazing folks who are all so supportive. It sure does help!!!!

I've been contemplating preop picks!! What the heck right? I don't want to see myself, but I especially don't want to live with this self for long either! I believe I will have my husband take them. Panties and bra- it will be terrifying but it will be humbling!

Okay so I've been griping and griping about Protein shakes....a friend that had RNY a couple years ago told me to order the Syntrax sample pack. HOLY COW!!!! I had some fruity thing for dinner that was the best Protein shake I've had so far, not fabulous, but not horrible (23 grams of Protein, 100 calories), then decided to go for the Oreo for bedtime snack. Made it with 1%milk and OMG it was DELICIOUS!!!! Even had the 8 year old try it out, then he tried to steal it. No after taste or chemical taste. With milk 31grams of protein and 200 calories, still not bad at all!!!! I can't do Oreo for every meal but I'll be doing at least 1a day for sure. Actually excited to try some of the other flavors tomorrow. Woohoo!!!!

        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!

    • buildabetteranna

      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
