  1. No it's a different one. I went through a place called true results and it's their brand. But I have heard good things about the bariatric advantage.
  2. No broth. I will try those shakes today though. Thanks for the support everyone!
  3. I have the magic bullet and it comes with a few different blending cups and blades. I think they are like 100$ but I've had mine for around 4 years.
  4. It's only been one day of this horrid liquid diet. All I can have is the protine shakes (which I have to choke down) SF Popsicles and jello. I have never wanted salt so bad! How do people make it through this? Lol I feel like I'm an addict going through withdrawls, I guess thats sort of what it is. And I can't watch tv, to many food commercials! I know I can't give up! I don't want to, but man... This is hard!
  5. Oh, idk wbout that. Do you have to stay over night? My insurance is making me!
  6. I think I have to pay up front, in fact I think I have to pay 48 hours in advance. But all doctors are different.
  7. Man, I'm so jealous! I can't have food or broth. But all I have "eaten" was one and a half protine shakes and one sf Jello cup. I'm drinking the second shake right now, so gross! Lol I don't know how I can do this for 2 weeks!
  8. They changed my date to the third! They want to check my gallbladder first. But I still want to keep in touch and see how you are feeling!
  9. Cazzy, is right. I have never heard that statistic. I don't think that many people even die from a gastric bypass, and that if far more invasive. Also about being over weight, you are more at risk for heart attacks, strokes, and all kinds of things. Do what is right for you. Some people have tried to scare me out of doing it, but if it's really what you want and you make an educated choice I think you will be fine! Good luck.
  10. Not having to worry if I will fit in a booth at a restaurant... Or anywhere! Self confidence! Being able to do things without getting so tired! My knees not hurting! (hopefully)
  11. Congrats and good luck! I get bannded on July 2nd and am also excited to see changes!
  12. I have a wii, and the wii fit is such fun. You don't really feel like you are working out. It's good if you are starting out. I want to lose weight before I go to the gym. I know that probably sounds so stupid lol. But they have Zumba for the wii and all kinds of dance games!
  13. I'm not an okie, but just wanted to say hello!
  14. I've heard insanity is really good. Good luck!
  15. Oh cool! My email is laceyismynameo@gmail.com. I would love to keep in contact and make sure everything is going smoothly for us both!
  16. Got a call from the doctors office yesterday. Going to see the Doc on Monday, and also start the pre opt diet. Surgery will be July 2nd! Guess I will be celebrating the 4th from my bed. I'm so excited!!! ))
  17. Found out Incan have sf Popsicles and sf jello!!! So happy! Lol
  18. Oh lmao.... Thanks for the laugh!
  19. It's ok. Some people do well with low card and others do not. Fat comes from calories, but from what you said you eat it doesn't sound like you are eating a lot of those either. Are you working out? And as for the uti I would just take anti biotics. And maybe Tylenol for the pain. Hope you feel better soon! And btw. My aunt was on the low card diet for 3 months and only lost 5 pounds. I was ob it for a month and lost 10. So everyone is different.
  20. Best tasting one by far is the special k choc one. But it only have like 10g of protine. The GNC brand isn't so bad either.
