Is Anyone else Absolutely Obsessed with......



Recommended Posts

This forum and everything "sleeve"? I am such a couch potato but find myself constantly researching, thinking and chatting about my upcoming surgery. I literally can't get enough of watching Youtube, reading forums and blogs and listening (Dr. Alverez podcast {obesitychat} every Monday)to everyone and everything sleeve. I feel like I'm going crazy and it's making me even more anxious for my surgery on 6/30. I tell myself every night, I am going to watch t.v. and not think about it but it's like I can't help it. I reach for my Mac instead of my remote control. I find myself even logging in here while I'm at work. smh

I hate to keep mentioning my surgery date with everything I post, does anyone know how I can add my surgery date to the information under my blank picture?

You're in great company, and you're not in the kitchen! Boo-ya!

To add your surgery info, click the your username in the upper right corner, then click "My Surgery" and you can add as much info about it as you would like to share.

lol ziggybang or should I say Addict #2? lol

Thanks for the information. I will try it. Most importantly, CONGRATULATIONS on your 71 lb. weight loss in just 5 months. Wow. You really inspire me as I thought people who were 250+ pounds would lose so much so quickly. I am a few pounds more than your starting weight. How the heck did you manage to loss so much so quickly? I thought people under 250 would lose but lose but nowhere near that quick. There is hope for me yet!!! You go girlllll!!!

I tried your suggestion but was taken to my surgery page where I had entered all the information on the first day I signed on. Oh well, I will figure it out one day. Thanks again.

      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.
