  1. I've done diets my whole life and yet I feel so hungry on Pre op. Why does this feel so much harder? Is it because in my mind I'm dealing with food separation issues? Please tell me I'm won't be starving forever
  2. I'm Pre op with headaches but it's because I've been decreasing my caffeine. Usually during any of my many diets before coffee was my crutch now I'm paying the price
  3. All I was told was two shakes that are under 200 calories and 20 gram protien along with lean and green. I'm doing the Body by Vi shakes they have 90 calories and 12 grams protien so I actually end up with 4 shakes and dinner
  4. I'd love to join but really don't know what to make my goal I'm in day 3 of Pre op. I'd love some suggestions for those are wiser and more experienced sleevers HW- 235 CW-229 Sleeve Date 12/14
  5. Dec 14th for me....day two on protein shakes and lean and green dinners.
  6. I am on Pre op diet day 2....I wake up each morning and say today will be the fattest day I will ever be for the rest of my life. That gives me the motivation to be strong. Dec 14 is my sleeve date
  7. I am on Pre op diet day 2....I wake up each morning and say today will be the fattest day I will ever be for the rest of my life. That gives me the motivation to be strong.
  8. Start my Pre op diet tomorrow Dec 14th is almost here!!!
  9. Congrats you look great....I start Pre Op diet Friday. I can't wait till I'm post 3 weeks
  10. Thanks....I am excited at least when I heard there was a problem I already had a plan in place. I'm 33 and the reason I decided on the sleeve was because I wanted to fix the problems before they started.
  11. Found out at Pre-op appointment I have crazy high blood pressure. Pcp thinks he can get it down in time for Dec. 14th surgery. That just added one more reason to the list of many why this is a good choice to me. I've always been a healthy fat person (or so my blood test and pressure would show) Proof even if you can run and try hard our bodies are not meant to take that kind of weight abuse. I am so ready to be freed from the weight!!!!
  12. I was sad about the thought of losing my boobies because they were really the only thing I had going for me. My hope is now the rest of my body will better also. I have always lived with the idea as long as they stick out farther then my belly I'm happy. I just need to make my belly smaller. Dec 14th can not come soon enough
  13. Am trying to not be so obsessed but everything I do makes me think about the 14th. I've only recently decided this was right for me. I can't image how it must feel to wait forever for insurance companies. Guess that's the only perk of being a self pay. I'm sure I'm not the only obsessed one out there.
  14. I think Dec 14th I'm booking it tomorrow
