  1. Your surgery place doesn't have samples? Mine sells them for $2.75 each
  2. That's horrible and I've seen worse! One lady on here cab only have 5 glasses of milk a day for 30 days!!!! I had one week of 2 shakes and one small meal. I've broken those small meals in to 2 and probably over did it....my sheet says 1-2 a day can have low fat cottage cheese, string cheese or lean meat. No quantities! I've eaten too much I am sure but I have lost about 10lbs because I am not eating many carbs
  3. I can eat lean mean and raw veggies are free! Ive eaten raddishes for breakfast! LOL I over ate a few times but never anything that wasn't on my sheet
  4. Sort of embarrassing ...anyone know if those premade shakes can be paid for with food stamps? Ebt card.
  5. Syringe? I am lost liquid percocet us waaaaay better than Demerol!
  6. I've loved throwing all the fat clothes catalogs in the mail as they come!
  7. I brought dry shampoo....I have super oily hair and you can spray it on....let it sit for a while and let it absorb the oil and brush out. My hair is an oil slick in 24 hours! And it's bleached!!!!!! I bought some stuff called pssssst.
  8. Ditto! 54 hours for me!
  9. My bff bought ne a Burt's Bee's kit if lotions and lip balm....small size. I am taking a can of TRESemme dry shampoo. I have super oily hair! Other than that I am just taking comfy clothes and favorite house shoes! Oh and phone charger!!!!
  10. I agree....but take some of it with a grain of salt!
  11. I wish I could do that! Fat face too!
  12. I think they want to make sure the stomach is empty. My surgeon is fellowship trained at Duke University. He train for a solid year was the best of the best at Duke. So he does what he was taught there. I just worry they will take a look and say no! Paranoia!
  13. Have you asked about phergan? Works better than zofran IMHO
  14. I can't imagine any if those getting anything but better after surgery! Hell, of you could see how fused I am and how I walk you'd probably think I am nuts for having surgery....every health problem is made better with weight loss! Even cancer feeds off excess estrogen that fat produces! How much better will your back feel if there no stomach hanging and pulling on it? I totally understand the fear and excuses....I've mastered it, but it stops now!
  15. My surgeon does egd before surgery and will abandon surgery it all is not well....this ever happened to anyone?
  16. Also depends on your health and what tests they require...heart, sleep study, etc...
  17. Also anyone can come on here and say anything or be anything....just sayin'
