Josho 7 Posted November 14, 2015 Hi My date is the 19th Nov. I'm so excited!!!! A little nervous but trying not to think about it. Just thinking about the day I can go into a regular clothes shop and not feel like the sales assistant is thinking to herself "what the hell is she doing in our shop" "nothing in your size here!" Good luck everyone! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
turbomom22 21 Posted November 15, 2015 Thank you cancer91, I am 50, starting weigh 254, down to 233 this morning, I just finished week one of my pre op diet, (I had started higher Protein less carbs before my pre op) a week to go my surgery is scheduled for the 23rd. The first few days on the liquid diet were difficult, now I'm not hungry forcing myself to drink the Protein Shakes (which I order through unjury) You can add a scoop of Peanut Butter flavor protein to SF chocolate milk when you need something sweet, or a ice and strawberry flavored protein for a smoothie; those are just a couple of my favorites. During the first few days struggles I'll share a few things that worked for me. I had made chocolate chip Cookies for the grandchildren...the temptation got the best of me I had a very very small bite chewed real good and then spit it out I did that three times and that craving was satisfied, another time I licked a chicken nugget just two licks lol. Well that's me up to date . I'd love to hear more of your stories. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
