  3. Great Job Heather and Jpov!! Quite the inspirations..
  4. Great to hear! Hope you have continued success with the healing! Congrats
  5. Slimin... You hit the nail right on the head... This surgery is not an instant fix... But a tool to assist in getting you to a healthier you. That's what the Psych wants to hear. Mine asked why is I feel I need the surgery.. I straight up told him.. My father died of heart disease, my mother died because of complications with high blood pressure and simply put.. I want to be around for my children. It's not as intimidating as people think.. Just needs to know if you are being rational about it all.
  6. Feeling much better! Headache gone, nausea gone..still feel drained.. Not hungry at all. Down 6 lbs! C'mon March 12th!
  7. Thanks! Buckey.. I've been very strict with mine... I feel much better now. This is my 5th day. Good luck!
  8. Well that was super fast! Glad all went well! Hugs!
  9. Whoo Hoo! Hi-5! Doing the approval dance... You are on your way! Congrats
  10. Gettin... Isn't it crazy how everyone's preop diet is different? An apple sounds good right about now!
  11. I'm so excited for you! Just said a little prayer for a fantastic surgery! Keep us informed and good luck!
  12. Are u getting in enough protein? My doc says that will cause hair loss. Thanks for the info!
  13. I'm going on 5th day of preop diet.. It consists of: Breakfast: Protein shake, Calcium chew Viatamin Lunch: Protein Shake, calcium chew Dinner: 3oz of lean meat, serving of vegetables, Vitamin, Calcium chew 64oz of Water per day
  14. Apparently they didn't even look.. She wore 5lb weights on each ankle!
  15. Good luck everyone!! Mine is on the 12th! Sending prayers up for all!
  16. It sound crazy but I actually know someone whose sister did wear ankle weights to show a higher BMI...
  17. Fallen... At what point did u start losing it? Have you seen any regrowth at all?
  18. It doesn't seem like u have had much issue with loose skin either... Did have a lot of hair loss?
  19. Wow.. You look great! Congrats!
  20. Thanks Cher, ❤️
  21. Yeah makes no sense because it says they are out of your system in 24 hours.. Must have something to do with the liver. I feel a bit better today but I slept a lot lol.
  22. Sick! I don't know why but I've been nauseated and had a headache the last two days. Stopped taking vitamin with shake and take it with my dinner meal and that hasn't helped either. I'm not hungry at all. I cannot take anything for my headache as I've been instructed to not take any ibuprofen, acetaminophen, or aspirin two weeks prior to surgery. Miserable! Any suggestions?
