Had a very good day! Saw the surgeon and he said I was at a weight that he feels comfortable helping me! The team meets every Tuesday and then they will call with the plan of action. It may not be for a few months but he will do it so I am very happy. He said it is definitely a surgical problem and it wouldnt get any better no matter how much weight I lost!

Didnt end up getting any sexy panties today. I feel my butt is still too big to pull it off but my daughter made a haul for her cancun trip. $330 worth of swimsuits for $100! They had a huge sale.

Thanks for the compliments guys. You are all so kind! We are a rocking hot group!

Wonderful News!

The last couple of days I have been in all kinds of pain. Since my surgery, my hormones are leveling out and the PCOS is starting to clear up some. Periods every month for the last 6 months. Unfortunately, on Thursday I was having some pains I thought were the left tummy pulled muscle or PMS but turned out to be a ruptured ovarian cyst. Needed all kinds of meds to get it under control and now I am still hurting and feel frustrated. Been laying around the last two days and just feel blah. I feel bad I ate a little tiny bowl of Cereal but haven't had hardly any carbs since the end of February but gave in tonight. Hopefully tomorrow is better.

Awe. Thats sucks. A ruptured cyst is definitely no fun. You are allowed your "feeling blah" time. You have a reason. Dont feel bad about the small amount of cereal you ate. You are human and there are worse things that you could've eaten! ;) I hope you are on the mend and feeling better real soon my friend.

      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.
