  1. I also have PCOS and my surgery date is for Friday August 3rd. I can't wait to get off metformin either. I'm sooo sick of not feeling good after taking it.
  2. I have 4 tattoos and 11 piercings including my tongue
  3. Friday I start my 2 week pre-op diet but unlike all of u, I'm allowed to have 600-800 calories worth of food like yogurt, cottage cheese and lean meats...I'm kind of jealous that mine isn't all liquid lol I dont feel normal being able to eat food for mine (I know sounds weird of me to say that lol) you all are doing amazing!!!
  4. I have surgery set for Friday August 3rd and I excited and scared and my anxiety is through the roof and I'm having panic attacks almost daily. I keep thinking about the what ifs also. Try to stay positive and just think by this time next month u will be on a journey of a healthier u
  5. That's my husband's and my 2 year wedding anniversary its a great day for surgery
  6. I have my fitness pal and LOVE IT!!! I can't do crystal light because of the artificial sweetener causes stomach pains. I'll definitely drink the broth. Do u know what vegetables are considered non-starchy?
  7. I think u should still go for surgery on 8/1. My surgery is 8/3. It will be hard since you'll still be on mushy foods but at least u know u wont over indulge in food plus you've been waiting a Long time.
  8. I I start my 2 week pre-op diet this Friday. The whole reason behind it is to shrink and thin out ur liver because with it being big it's harder to maneuver around it in surgery plus if they have to fold it over there is a bigger chance of it cracking and bleeding. That is what my surgeon told me. I'm not on an all liquid diet tho I Just have certain foods that I can eat plus I can't go over 600-800 calories.
  9. Okay so my surgery date is Friday August 3rd so this Friday July 20th I start my pre-op diet. It consists of cottage cheese, chobani yogurt, steamed vegetables, and lean meat oh yeah and protein shakes of course. Does anyone have any advice on how to not over indulge? I'm only allowed to eat 600-800 calories a day and I have to measure everything.
  10. definitely call around to try to get the documentation that they need. I have state health insurance (Vermont) and my doctor just wrote down what I've tried for weight loss and they were okay with that because it was written down by my doctor. Weight Watcher's should still have your documents. I know when I was going to Curve For Women that they keep all documents for 7 years. Good luck
  11. Well I'm surprised that I don't have to do an all liquid diet but what they told me is that the diet that I'll be on for 2 weeks does the same exact thing that an all liquid diet does. I guess I'm happy that I can eat but I really thought that I'd also have to do an all liquid diet. I'm impatiently waiting for friday to get here lol that's the sad thing. I just want my surgery done and over with already so my anxiety level can go down lol
  12. I start my pre-op this Friday July 20th and my surgery is Friday August 3rd. I'll be praying for u and you will do great good luck.
  13. Welcome and congrats
  14. Well I don't have to do an all liquid diet. My diet I can eat 3oz portions of lean meat, cottage cheese, yogurt, Protein shakes, small salads, and vegetables but all measure out and no more then 600-800 calories a day lol
