I'm on day 3 of liquids, ugh. I am hungry but the worst part is mental. If I could stop thinking about it for a minute, maybe it wouldn't be so bad.

I start liquids in the morning! I'm a little anxious about it, but gonna do my best. Good luck.

That is exactly what I wanted to hear as I have surgery in 1 week. Sounds like a dream come true. Gratz on your success.

I sort of have to agree. You have waited this long. Besides, even if EVERYTHING goes by the textbook, don't you want to enjoy your wedding dinner and cake? I would not want to be eating mushies at my wedding or on my honeymoon. That's just me. Do what makes you happy. Follow your inner voice!

I think you just copy the BBBC code and paste that in. I had my last apt yesterday with the nutritionist and all I start liquids tomorrow, then surgery on June 4th. I can hardly wait.

I am just so happy for you. You are like the poster girl for the sleeve! Best wishes for you continued success. I'm looking forward to catching up with you soon.

Thanks everyone. I'll keep trying and I will use Kleenex, that really may help.

Thanks Kathy and thanks KabinKitty, I will check into that.

Thanks so much.

I know how you feel. My date is getting close too. Best of luck.

Good for you! I totally understand what you mean about doing it for YOU. I think too many woman take on the roll of caretaker and forget that they themselves need to be taken care of too. Not to mention that if you don't, you eventually won't be able to care for others because your body won't let you. Let us know how the progress goes and best of luck.

Congrats on getting a date for your surgery. I am having mine on June 4th and can hardly wait. Best of luck to you.

Glad you're home. Best of luck getting rid of those gas pains. I know you were so excited and ready for this. I'm glad it's finally done so you can be on the road to a healthier you. Wishing you a speedy recovery. Take care and keep us posted please.

I went for my 2nd sleep study and to get fitted for the CPAP. It's not as bad as I thought it would be, but it's no picnic either. When I first heard I would have to get it, I thought I would not really use it. But, the tech explained to me how it works, and how much better folks feel after using it. I figure it's worth a shot, even if it takes some getting used to. The insurance paid all but $300 of it. So, I should at least try to get my $300 worth out of it before tossing it aside. LOL I know after I have a significant weight loss I probably won't need it anymore, but that's a ways off so, here goes. On the other hand we'll see how a feel about it in a few nights.

You weren't lying when you said it was a huge list, LOL. Thanks, I bookmarked this page for future use.

Cherries FTW huh? I will keep that in mind if I need it. I know several peeps were looking for some relief, I hope they find this thread! :crying:

I'm hoping for a size 10 when all is said and done. I think that is realistic, however it's been so long since I wore that size. I wonder how much age, etc will play a part, because I know my body is different. Oh well, have to wait and see. But, yes just imagining it is very exciting.

Sorry you are having trouble sleeping well. I am a side sleeper too. Best of luck for a speedy recovery.

Thanks so much. I didn't know the info was downloadable, is that on all machines or specific ones?

Gratz on your outstanding achievement. Have fun this summer you deserve it.

Dang girl that's wonderful. Gratz on getting to go back to the gym and I bet even more inches are gonna drop off soon with the workouts. I am so looking forward to getting to where you are.

Welcome. Such a long road, but you sound like you are ready for the next step. Gotta tell you I love the "1st first pic thing" LOL. Best of luck to you.

Sounds like you are making progress, glad to hear it.

Welcome! I don't really have any advice for you as I haven't been sleeved yet. But, I wanted to welcome you. I get sleeved 4 days before you and am so ready for it.

Obese to normal in 17 weeks OMG! That's amazing. Gratz on your success.
