  1. 2 then they conformed the move to the 11th 3 we made a mistake your back to the 13th 4 missed that one 5 so can we change your appointment for next Tuesday to Monday. Sorry two post for that one hit the wrong button. Anyway surgery still the 13th so I am good.
  2. So another random thought. Dr office called me like 5 times today. 1 can we move your appointment to the 11th. Hell they just moved it yesterday to the 13th.
  3. Thank you I am feeling better. Think it was a new medicine they put me on for reflex.
  4. Wow really? Oh my that could suck. I have the lap band and having a revision done. Is there a huge difference between the before and after? Just asking because I have a few shakes I really like.
  5. If you are that tired you might want to call and talk to the nutritionist and see what else you can do. This is just a thought and the liquid is to just get you clean before surgery.
  6. I am glad your ok and that it did not delay your surgery.
  7. I was until today they moved my surgery up to Dec 13 I am happy and sad all at the same time.
  8. So went in for 1200 calorie diet found out surgery was changed to Friday the 13. Has any one here been on an optifast diet?
  9. That is awesome our Dec 16 group getting lots of people now. I too am on the 16 welcome.
  10. I am a 12/16 as well. Glad you could join us.
  11. What is the name of the facebook page for us?

  13. It is very hard to explain how food makes us feel or why we have these feeling for food. I start my preop diet things tomorrow and I am scared of of not having enough food. I know that this is in my head I have been doing this for a while and not that there is a deadline or set date I have an issue with it. I think My issue is all mental. I find that by talking about it and telling others (for me it is my boss and a cople of close friends, My hubby does not seem to get ti) what is going on it eases the pressure about what ever food I am wanting or craving at that time.
  14. I have a head ache now and last night I had a stomach ache. I think I maybe doing down with a bug. And I don't have time for that.
  15. I don't feel good and there is nothing I can do about it right now. This sucks
  16. I have a 3 week plan which starts with one week of 1200 calorie diet and the two weeks of 800 calorie then surgery. So I think it has to do with different Dr. I went for an EGD today everything was good.
  17. So my EGD was this morning. They put me on a ppl but everything is good. So it is official I start preop on Dec 3. I am excited!
  18. I too am scheduled on the 16th and freezing of stew is a great idea. I have protein shake stuff on hand and other cream soups as well as popsicles.
  19. I like this it will help keep a goal in sight.
  20. It could be the stress of it all for sure. This is a big step for all of us and I have been a little antsy too. And not sleeping as well. Tomorrow I have my EDG or id it EGD and I have not been sleeping well and on liquids for yesterday and today. It has been a little difficult for sure. Hang in there we are all pulling for you.
  21. Oh my have to tried taking benadryl?
  22. Wow that is alot to take in all at once. Keep us posted once you read it and have a better understanding.
  23. What did they tell you? I should be starting my things next week and just wondering?
  24. I find that sugar is a problem for me too. I can say that it is a bit crazy. I have a problem with candies like whoppers and salt Water taffy. I seem to gravitate towards them and think about it all the time. I try hard not to but man it hard. I take it one day at a time. I too use the monk fruit in all my drinks like tea and coffee.
  25. This Friday I go for my EDG and I am currently on a liquid diet until I am done with this procedure on Friday. Two days of a liquid diet are not bad. However it does make me think that right before the surgery on Dec 16 I will be on a low cal. diet. My problem or fear is this is also when I have finals and work becomes busy with student trying to get their Financial Aid done for the next term. I am worried I will fail at this. I was on a liquid diet for one full month from Sept 20 to Oct 20 of this year and I know I can do this but just thinking about it today has raised concerns for me. I know I can do this but man the thought of it sucks LOL sorry ranting about all of this.
