My problem with calories that fall out is that they usually land on my hips or ass.

Ya gotta eat BOOBS out so they land there instead. :D

Omg, is THAT how it works?!! Sh*t!

I'm going to have an absolutely killer rack by the end of the summer...

Damn ladies.... I was looking for a reduction there too. Unfortunately the weight loss hasn't hit the rack yet. That said, I'll happily donate some of that to anyone interested!

I'll draw up a contract and have it to you in the morning.

While I'm not disinterested in the whole boobage thing, if I'm honest, I'd have to say I'm more of an arseage man...

I still appreciate the offer tho..

I will admit that I only read the first two pages of this topic. I will share my own experience with diet sodas. I weigh approximately 320 pounds and I will be getting the sleeve done at the end of August. The last 30 pounds are the result of me going off of diet soda. I was having multiple strange medical issues including vertigo and memory issues. Was also having some breathing issues that I couldn't attribute anything. I went down to Southern California to visit my grandmother in the hospital and while I was down there all of my issues one away. When I got back home to work and everything came back. I knew that my problems could not have been cleared up by the lovely Southern California air. I started looking what changed when I went down there. I am a cheap bastard I mean Frugal man. At home I was drinking 2 44 ounce diet dr. Pepper a day and sometimes drinking 3. The cost on my fountain drink version of that dr. Pepper was $0.89 a pop. When I went to California all I could find it in was 1 liter soda bottles at 2 bucks a piece. My cheap bastard side, uh I mean frugal side, said hell no to that. Instead I was drinking Water. When I realized what was going on I went completely off of the diet dr. Pepper and went to straight water. For about 2 weeks I was doing great and feeling awesome. Most of my symptoms have gone away however I started gaining weight after 2 weeks. At week 6 I had gained 25 pounds! I went to my doctor to find out what the hell was wrong with me. He asked me a strange question, do you like coffee? No. Do you like tea? No. Why? He responded with your metabolism has slowed down because of the lack of caffeine. His suggestion pick up a caffeine habit that is healthier! So I changed up my habits. Very rarely do I drink a soda with the exception of a Henry weinhard root beer when I BBQ or a Mountain Dew when I have Mexican food. 99% of the time I drink iced tea without the ice (because I hate it when it melts) and lemonade. My ratio is 6 parts tea to 1 part lemonade. I know that I have to change my evil lemonade ways so I just bought some of those single packs of Crystal Light Lemonade and I plan to dump that into my tea. Hopefully that will be a reasonable substitute for the lightly sweet drink that I always seem to crave.

      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.
