Could use an extra prayer or two. Going through a rough time with a new boss at work and some coworkers that have been harassing me over this surgery for months now. It's all getting to be overwhelming. I applied for a new position and I'm just praying that they call me in for an interview and I get it. It would be a fabulous new start after this surgery. Kind of a career reset with my physical reset. :)

I hear you. I'll probably get called for my interview during my 2 weeks off. Very big job. I hope I don't answer questions in a drug induced state!

Lisa, I am totally thinking the same thing! Lol I'm so worried that I'll think I'm fine, but really sound like I'm high on something. Haha they're supposed to call the week OF my surgery. I'm hoping they call Monday or Tuesday cause I have surgery Wednesday.

I think I will miss popcorn, pizza and fried chicken! :)

I was doing pretty good at low carbs this past week, but in a panic today, so I am eating pizza. Tomorrow's a new day! My doctor only asked for low carb the week before which starts Tuesday.

Hi all! I am also a June baby! My surgery is scheduled for June 3rd. My emotions are all over the place. One moment I want to cancel everything, and another moment I can't wait to have the surgery. My biggest downfall is researching the Internet and reading so many regrets. But I also see how people say the surgery was the best thing that ever happened to them....or wish they had done the surgery many years before. I just pray to God I am making the right decision for myself and my family. Congratulations to all the June babies!

I wanna take my kids to Disney World and for on the rides. I wanna be able to look good in a 2 piece bathung suit. I wanna have sex without my legs cramping up. I really wanna feel sexy' date=' confident, and stop hearing you have a beautiful face. "If you just lost a little weight you would be gorgeous. " ehh I'd love not to have to spend a fortune on clothes. I'd love to feel like I don't need to settle for mediocre when I deserve better. I want to believe what I just wrote. I want to not have to use baby power between my legs and under my stomach. I have high expectations but I know the work it will take. And I want all these things for all of you too. :)[/quote']

hi..I trully feels like you. I told my husband my dream come true will be going in to any girls stores(bebe, juicy couture, and so on) and not having to first see what are theyre biggest size. I wanna be able to be in style...i want to be able to look at myself in the mirror and think I look great! Keep your motivation....we will all get thru this.

And yest..if it was that easy theyre would be obese people in the world.

      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.
