Five Month Surgiversary!
Just-A-Gem replied to Felicity2u's topic in Weight Loss Surgery Success Stories
You look even more BEAUTIFUL! I hope to be able to share similar stats at 5 months out. -
Yes. I think apple juice will fit somewhere in the liquid diet, but I thought you were doing more than just the 3? I am starting on the 23rd and I can't do it alone!

Woohoo! Your timing is perfect then. I'm super excited too. Only 22 days to go!

Vote for the September ------! <--- Insert Name Here
Just-A-Gem replied to wishes's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I've been thinking about this a lot... lol.. I'm a loser. I liked September Super Stars, but August was All Stars, so now I'm nominating: 'September Sparks' ...because you have to have a spark to start a fire. -
OMG! OMG! OMG! Wishes has a date!

Attention Mature Ladies & their spouses.- !! :-)
Just-A-Gem replied to happy1957's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I am obviously not mature because I had to open this to find out what HRT stood for. I would think, however, that this is something you definitely need to discuss with your doctor. I don't see how the weightloss will have much to do with your use of hormone replacements. Not something to do on your own. -
Only 2 weeks until pre-op diet begins. I definitely like this countdown more.
Happy Tuesday! -
Is this too much water?
Just-A-Gem replied to buzydebb's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
160 oz of water a day will not harm you... If you tried to do that in an hour or two it could dilute your electrolyte balance and cause some damage but over the course of the day is fine. At 300 lbs, my recommended daily water intake is 150 oz.... -
10 months out, 100 lbs down, with pics!
Just-A-Gem replied to SouthernSleever's topic in Weight Loss Surgery Success Stories
You look HOT lady! 100 lbs in 10 months is amazing! -
That's no small NSV in my book. You are doing amazing work! Just think 60 lbs in 2 months would have been unthinkable and you are totally rocking it!

Woohooo! Luck and prayers your way!

25 days to go. I am watching the numbers shrink before my eyes and anticipating watching the numbers shrink before my eyes.

Lol.. I think that's Operation Prep: Mission Two!

I can't believe that I'm now looking at less than 30 days. The 2 in front of the 9 is much easier to take than when the 9 was in front of the 2.

I forgot... lol.. Your list reminds me of some things that I have acquired. 12 - 4 oz. easy find rubbermaid food storage containers 5 classic Torani SF syrups (French Vanilla, Caramel, Hazelnut, Chocolate, Raspberry) Hamilton Beach Single Serve Blender (AMAZING!! I bought it a couple weeks ago at Wal-Mart ($12) and it's awesome! Way better, and cheaper than the bullet!) As far as the scale and the baby spoon/forks, lol, I already have those (my youngest is 2). The scale I have is this one: http://www.amazon.com/Escali-P115C-Digital-Multifunctional-Chrome/dp/B0007GAWRS It's awesome and very inexpensive for a scale of it's caliber. I bake, so I've had it for some time but when I brought up weighing my meals rather than using a measuring cup it was quickly pointed out to me that our bellies are 2-4 ounces capacity by volume, not by weight/mass.
