  1. I am so sorry! I can't imagine my bestie doing that. She is skinny and beautiful but she is the most loyal friend in the world! Weve bren friends for almost 15 years(since 7th grade!)She is actually who is taking care or me after surgery. I am so sorry you are going through this, it's just not right! Friends are supposed to be just that, a friend! Some people are in our lives forever and some aren't. I would definitely talk to her and share your feelings and see if it can be talked out because being friends that long would be sad for it to come to an end. Good Luck! Johnathan
  2. They definitely are all different because mine Is the same way as yours and only requires clear liquids the day before(and magnesium citrate for umm cleaning lol) Good Luck ladies!!
  3. Wish I had known that bc I ordered from Mybariatricpantry.com and got 11 for 18.95+3.95 shipping + 1 free sample of my choice. I think I may still call them and do another order that way I have enough for after surgery until I figure out what I want and like. I'm excited to try the
  4. I'm trying hard! I find myself going for food though :-/ its more mental than anything, it's not having something in my hand or mouth. The cravings aren't that bad bc I'm taking the chantix, it's the damn mental part of it! Wish I had never started at 16!
  5. Congratulations on getting ready for surgery! It's so exciting!! Just wanted to say, I can't believe that they bill 65K to insurance! That just seems insane to me! Good luck! Johnathan
  6. I'm actually feeling a little better tonight, haven't smoked anything since the half a cigarette at 3ish? And that was almost 9 hours ago. I think as long as I have a clean start in the morning it'll be easier. I just have this feeling of anxiety in the pit of my stomach and I hate it! Thank you all for your support!! Johnathan
  7. I found these http://www.bariatricchoice.com/bariatric-lifestyle-bariatric-multivitamins.html which the reviews on the site really recommend but I know I would have to add vitamin D (unless their would be enough in the calcium citrate supplement) bc that's not enough, of course calcium citrate, and Iron taken separately and a B-12 that dissolves under the tongue.
  8. Just can't figure out what to order! Their are so many different Multis out there and I just can't figure out which one to order! This is just insane!
  9. Thank You! I absolutely can't wait! It's so exciting!!!
  10. That's the thing- the taste hasn't changed at all! It burbs my throat a little but the taste isn't any different at all and I wish it would bc that would make it a little easier.
  11. Thanks ladies! I do want to become completely healthy! I want to be able to run! I've always wanted to be a runner because I'm fast, even being overweight I am still a good runner, just that u don't have much endurance lol I'm gonba try the sugar free peppermint stick bc I have a prob with nothing in my hands too. I've been using him but it seems to not work too well. On to other stuff I guess. Thanks! Johnathan
  12. I'm pretty consumed with it myself! I am on here like 24/7 reading up and talking with others and am just always reading and researching stuff that has to do with this WLS. This will change my life forever and I guess that's why I'm so consumed by it. I just really want it and wish it was tomorrow and not the 25th lol Johnathan
  13. I got the Precision Pro II Digital Bathroom scale, 440 LB Capacity Tempered Glass Platform with Step-on Activatuon from Amazon for 28.85 minus ACCULOSS promo code for a grand total of approx $17.65? With free super saver shipping. I really like this scale, it's very nice and accurate. I just ordered another for my nana a couple days ago and even though it said the code was expired it still gave it to me at checkout!
  14. It's not just Atkins. Your really not that hungry. You won't want to keep eating. The reason we need the sleeve is bc we can't just stay on Atkins or weight watchers and keep losing to goal and then maintain. This is a complete lifestyle change forever. I look at it as it is going to be my lifesaver. Good luck! Johnathan
  15. Congratulations!!! Your a loser now lol Keep up the hard work! Johnathan
  16. Im on Chantix, this is Day 10 and I'm still having bad withdrawal and it sucks so bad! I have to stop smoking b4 surgery and I'm starring to worry it just may not be possible. I've only smoked 1/2 cigarette since 9:30 this morning but I want one so bad right now I would kill for it. Anyway, is their anyone else going through this?? Johnathan
  17. It sure would bc I am always so damn hot and sweating and I HATE IT!
