  1. Good luck to everyone and thank you for the suggestions so far
  2. Hi all! My surgery date is May 14th so that means I start my meal replacements on April 30ish. I can only have 700-900 calories a day. My question is how did y'all keep your mind off of your hunger (aside from keeping your eye on the prize...the surgery date). I'm known to get crafty from time to time but not sure how many crafts it is going to take to keep me from remembering I'm hungry lol. I'm going through this break-up with food and I get so worried it's going to call trying to win my love back ! Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
  3. Exactly! I'm not going to complain about my 2 when I know some are having to do 4
  4. My doctor has me doing the Bariatric Advantage Meal Replacement shakes 3-5 times a day for the 2 weeks...its about $65 for 35 servings
  5. I'm May 13th! So excited. I was hoping for an earlier date but she is booked. Good luck to you!
  6. This is one of my big goals. I miss roller coasters!
  7. Thank you! That is a great idea! I'll have to look up the fb page
  8. I'm new of course. My surgery date is May 14th. I really am excited and not having second thoughts but I've been a bit on the sad side. I think its because it's 4 days after my birthday and that means no bday dinner or cake. It's the first real big change I'm going to have to make. I keep having the "last meal" thoughts also and am not looking forward to the 2 weeks of meal replacements before surgery. Are these feelings anything close to normal?

I keep having the "last meal" thoughts and am highly dreading the 2 weeks of meal replacements before surgery. Is this anything close to normal?
