  9. Sandra_baby!!! I'm glad to hear!! Stick to that protein shake diet, and you will be fine! It takes work, and dont forget, we are all here to support each other! You sound a little offended at my post. Hope all works out for you on your journey!
  10. Agreed! Dont go through all this work for them to tell you no after they go in! I lost 10 pounds already. The more you lose now, the less after! On that note, im getting back on the tread mill and show it whos boss! My goal is to fit in the brand new Michael Khors size small bikini I bought!!!
  11. Very happy for you! Keep on going!
  12. Sounds Great! Thanks girl! Thank you!
  13. LOL!! NO...sorry, I didnt explain myself fully! I actually started eating oatmeal for breakfast, salads with raw veggies and turkey for lunch, then a light dinner. I did that for 3 weeks, and dropped the weight
  14. Hey vsg!!!!! I started my 2 week shake diet yesterday...doing the same as you, and let me tell you...I'M STARVING!! All I know is that I will be snaking on some fat free cottage cheese when needed! lol. I hurt my back at work today, so I need to take it easy. I'm 9 pounds down. Thats my 5%, so i'm happy for that! And welocme all new comers!
  15. I'm not sure what size he is going to use...I didnt even think to ask!!! ugh! I'm 5' tall, and dont have much weight to lose. (so everyone says). I started at 180 pounds, lost 8 so far, and my surg is sched for 5/7 here in the Hudson Valley in NY. I'm SO sick and tired of being fat, that i'm actually pissed at myself. It's a darn shame that my 2 baby brothers jeans sizes are a 28x30! My unifoem pant measure in at 38x28....blech!
  16. I went on line and got some free samples, and I also bought from UNJURY. I have not tried any of them yet due to the fact that everyone is saying your taste buds change. The only ones i've really been drinking are the EAS carb control. I really like those.
  17. Congratulations!! Glad to hear your doing so well! Hope I recover just as fast!! lol! Keep us updated!
  18. YEY FOR YOU! Congratulations!!! Keep it up!
  19. Congratulations!!! Keep us updated! and hello ChristineS...I'm down the road in greenville!!!
  20. I'm going in the 7th!! I lost my 5%..and then I cheated two days ago... I had my final clearance by my primary, and met with my sergeon yesterday. He asked me if I wanted my sleeve tighter because I am short and very small framed. Any one have any input on this?
  21. Congratulations!!! (and good luck)!!!
  22. I'm 5' tall, and a FULL 36 d. I had breast cancer 2 years ago, with a VERY strong family history. I went to see the PS already (i'm still pre-op; sleeve date is 5/7). he said to come back to see him 6 months after I hit my goal weight....and these pups are being replaced!!! I'va always loved my boobs, but they have been tainted! PS laughed when I asked him if I could keep my D'S! I'm very small framed....and he chuckled when he said 800 cc's on my frame wont look quite right! We shall see! new boobies for Christmas! Miss Diva, can I ask you your height and new bra size? Did you do saline? Thanks!!
