  10. Hello forum I'm 1 month post op and down 40 lbs .. I know it's awesome:) but is it normal to feel like that's all that I am going to loose, I feel like I cnt picture my self smaller, everyone tells me your gonna loose it it's all gonna come off, I'm excited I'm able to fit into old clothing that didn't fit that was at the back of the closet ), but there's still that lil bit of denial in my head. I'd any of you go through that???

  13. Hello i had my surgery may 7 im 2 weeks post op, Feeling great I want to go back to work, I'm scheduled to see the dr on Thursday hopefully he releases me, I am on my step two liquid diet n pretty tired of it. I've been eating just cream of wheat, jello sf, pudding sf, I don't like the sugar free drink mixes so I've been drinking water, also I'm eating,cream of mushroom n chicken soup, sugar free ice pops as well, it's just repetition everyday I cnt wait till Sunday when I start my pureed diet, I hvnt wanted to weigh myself until I go to the dr on Thursday I hope I lost some pounds , do you alll have any ideas on other liquid diet ideas for this week? Also any good puréed diet ideas for next week? I find this forum verry informative // thnks
  14. A friend told me she would just chew it and spit it out when she was post op... Hvnt tried that though I'm scared
  15. You drink that the night before surgery to clean your stomach.. Like a laxative
  16. Then again my nails are a lil too much lol
  17. Girl I know what you mean I always got my nails don and they told me as long as I had one clear finger where they could use my nailbed for that oxygen level monitor, and to check my respitory levels, but I went ahead and took them off for that week I wasn't gna walk around with all my nails did except one. Lol
  18. I hear you John, I also am post op 5 days and the pain is gone now I'm just a lill sore, alot of people told me story's as well those story's were always they now somebody that knows somebody, and yes I was scared but at the end of the day it was my decision, to either continue living my life the way I was or take a step into the future , with my health, I had high cholesterol , pre diabetic issues , high bmi, and if I continued this way i was gnna end up dead by 45 my doc said so wether i died from my health problems or from surgery it was inevidable . at least i Am know Taking the steps to a better future and life.Therefore this surgery Is a tool to help you loose weight and it will be a long journey but if your ready, go for it don let anyone tell you what you need to do, don't let their negative feedback hold you back a real friend will support your decisions.
