  1. All went well here... Went in at 6 am and was home by 4. The surgery went great and I'm feeling ok.. Super nausea though. Worse than the gas pains. The gas pains feel like muscle aches the day after you got done working out really hardy the nausea makes me feel awful. Any tips from the pros how long thus lasts?? Also, best of luck to all the future bandsters!!
  2. Tomorrow's the big day!!! So excited!!
  3. Finally got a time and such scheduled for my surgery Monday... A little nervous but also excited for a change..
  4. My surgery is the 11th also!! Day 6 is going okay, its easier than the first couple days. I can tell you this is one of the hardest things I have ever done but we got this girl!! I just keep my focus on the reward in the end. Just think how skinny we are going to be- hard work and dedication! Good luck to you!! <3
  5. Totally been doing good on this liquid fasting!! Day 4 done of 14... Keep on trucking!! Surgery is scheduled for the 11th!!
  6. Wow what a great story!! So awesome to see hard work pays off.. So encouraging to me!! Thank you- going to have surgery on the 11th of Feb. so excited about the future!
  7. So inspirational to hear!!! Thank you for posting this!!
  8. Thanks so much for the support guys!! You guys are awesome! Yes my diet is complete liquids- oh what I would give for even one lettuce off of a salad! Lol!! I feel like I have to take one day at a time but I have found myself counting the days, minutes, seconds!! Lol! I am so anxious for this change- I have tried so many different diets to never succeed. I have such faith that this will work. Hard work but I know it's all going to be worth every minute of it when I can look in the mirror and say who is that sexy girl that's been hiding all this time?!! We totally got this!
  9. Well I'm not going to lie I do feel hungry!! Lol! I think the hardest part is to ignore your brain and belly telling you through growls that your hungry. My suggestion is to keep busy, stay away from real food, and be prepared with your soups and protein drinks. My husband has been a dear and made dinner for himself and our daughter far away from me. Just try and keep focused on our goal- this is for our future! We can do it!! <3
  10. So excited - mine is scheduled for February 11th! I'm a little nervous but I keep thinking of the great things ahead. This is going to be a new start to a great new you!! Good luck!
  11. I'm on my second day of liquid diet and man is it hard!! Before it actually got here I remember thinking oh it can't be that hard.. Boy I had no idea! I really hope that I can stay busy and keep on pushing on.. Does anyone have any good tips to help my rumbling stomach? Keep our eyes on the prize right?!
