I'm finding it entertaining. Thanks for sharing.

I like dresses, but it's pretty cold where I am and I've read that so many people feel even colder after surgery that I'm not too sure about that option. On the other hand, I do have a full-length super warm winter coat, so I guess dresses might be a possibility.

I agree that you are an inspiration to us all. Also, getting a new driver's license is an NSV I hadn't even considered yet--thanks for giving me one more thing to look forward to!

I read that there are varying degrees of lactose intolerance and while some people may not be able to tolerate any dairy, others might be able to tolerate only certain types (which sounds like what you're experiencing).

I haven't. I'm having surgery in MX, so that will be done when I get there. -

Are you nervous about the surgery or what comes after? I'm nervous about what comes after, but not the surgery itself. I realize that I will probably get nervous as the date draws closer, but for now, I am just impatient to be on the losers' bench already -

My surgery is Jan. 17. I am excited and impatient, but not too nervous. I'll be your sleeve buddy! -
So Tell Me About The Week 3 Stall....

If you haven't already read about the role of glycogen in the weight loss stalls, I highly recommend it: http://www.dsfacts.com/weight-loss-stall-or-plateau.html -
I couldn't find anything under this name, but it sounds really similar.

You look great! Keep up the good work!

Thanks for all the great input--I had never even considered that I might skip over sizes. I've decided to practice restraint and save the skinny shopping for rewards along the way. And Pinterest is a great idea.

It's good to know that it won't necessarily last long. I have read in some other threads to try the Listerine breath strips, so that's my plan. I have a feeling I will be eating them constantly while the ketosis breath lasts.

Looking good!

Get well soon!

Since my original wish already came true, would it be greedy for me to make another? Oh well, here goes: I want health and happiness in the new year.

Well, I got my wish! I am officially having surgery on Jan. 17! I cannot wait

Surgery scheduled! Normal to feel like I want to eat like a pig until then?

I'm also currently going through this, although I am trying to keep it reigned in by allowing up to only 1 food funeral per day and also offsetting it by having a protein shake for breakfast (I figure that will help me ease into the pre-op diet also). -
I might be moving my surgery date up from March to January after all. I have a few things to figure out before I can make the final decision, but I really want to get it done sooner. Wish me luck!

I purchased my plane ticket today! Jan. 17 is happening! Thanks for all your well-wishes!

This is fantastic! Thanks for sharing.

Thank you for sharing in such great detail--I will be there next month and this is all very good to hear. Also, I think it's awesome that you and your mom are on this journey to health together. -
All I want is to know for sure if I get to move my surgery date up from Mar. 22 to Jan. 17. So far, things look good (about 90% sure), but I'm not sure if I'll know for sure by Christmas (fingers crossed).

Jan. 2013 Buddies! A New Year = A New Us!
icon23 replied to LizTex2587's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
It looks like I will be joining the Jan. sleevers club. I was going to have VSG on March 22, but it's looking more and more like I'm moving that date up to Jan. 17 (fingers crossed). I should know for sure within a week or so. -

I just sent requests to you both. I haven't fully set up my MFP profile yet, so there's no pic, but I will do it soon.
