    I Hate It When People Misuse "literally"!

    My pet peve is people that think they are so smart they have to correct grammer get a life!!!!!
  3. The sleeve can be streched and anyone that tells you it can not needs to go back to the surgen for training but air from a staw should not do the streching. The streching will come from constant force from too much solid food.

    Disgusted By Others Eating

    At some point point in the process(like 4 weeks out) what bothers me is envy that I can not do that anymore with any food(still on soft food). But also think how you would have reacted in days gone by if someone asked you if you were going to eat that crap or that much.

    Muscle Vs Fat...please Stop

    Are we talking weight or mass you want a lbf or just lb. You really need to get a life everyone else knows what is implied by the statement that muscle weighs more than fat. But to make it correct we need to call it lbf/volumn^3.

    This Is So Hard

    What helped me pre-op was starting to take control of the eating start finding a protien drink you like and try to replace one meal a day. Start to log your food and just look at what you are doing and start to look at where you need to be after the surgery. When I did these things it gave me alot to think about and less to worry about after the surgery. Set your goal and dig in and before you know it you will be here too so good luck keep your head up.
  15. Shakes pre-op sure made the post-op transition smooth already had found shakes I like and felt good going in to surgery not starved. I did 19 days of two meals replaced with shake and one good meal and lost 20 lbs.

    My 1St Roadblock

    I always blamed the ins. for slow paperwork but going through this has shown me it is more Dr. fault and not ins. My Dr. waited a week to send in report and ins. had approval the morning afer receiving it. The Dr. made all of the preop appt. for me but forgot to make one with his office so I had to wait two weeks to see him after the others were done. The one thing that I did that the ins people liked is I made all app mail a copy of reports to the ins as well as DR.
