Truckerchic_M

I was told 1 cup a day is OK, not only is it a stimulant but it is a diuretic also

Mine is truckerchic I'm pre Op month 2 of 6 month program it's helpful to see what people are doing at different stages

Where it ask for the persons email address just put their user name

Congrats, how sweet!

Plain is yuck agreed, try greek yogurt with fruit on the bottom just dont stir in the fruit..you get a lite flavor but not all the sugar

Good luck and happy thoughts to you!

HAPPY DANCE!

Your smile is priceless, thank you for sharing! Never thought I would be excited to show my hubby pics of another women lol

Just curious and not judging but if your addicted to something before surgery and that something helped to get you to that point of needing surgery, why risk having that something again after?

Your heading in the right direction, we didnt put the weight on over night and our bodies are gonna fight the change..stay strong keep doing what your doing and you will win!

Ive started using MFP again, I have to do the 6 month pre op thing so some new friends would be nice...im Truckerchic on there also... and for fun if you use instagram im Truckerchic on there too!

Im working on this also, I have to constantly remind myself and putting fork down does help...I found a fork with a timer on it just for this issue lol I thought about getting it

Welcome Marie ..I have to do 6 months of classes and stuff before my surgery so im looking at July..good luck and keep up posted

Thank you for the welcome Michelle ..your doing great Im glad it has gone smooth for you, I have learned a lot just from this site in a short time and with my job time goes fast lol

Good luck...I start mine wed 1/16 and have to go 6 months but looking forward to the info and being prepared as much as I can be

Hello, My name is Wendy and I recently joined this site..Im not sure if Im over 300lbs but last time I weighed myself I was 290 so I hope you dont mind me joining your group I didnt find any others that interested me. I have wanted surgery for awhile but lack of funds and insurance has stopped me, we got new insurance at work and they cover it woohoo but I have to do the 6 month thing starting wed. I was disappointed on having to wait longer but in the long run it will be better I think. I have been overweight pretty much my whole life and with every loss I had I found more. My weight and food addiction is consuming my life and Im so ready for this surgery and starting the next chapter of my life...hopefully healthy and hot lol I am 43 mom of 3, grandma to 3 and a wife, I also have been a truck driver for 13 yrs and have spent the last 4 driving team with my wonderful hubby.although a very fun lifestyle not the healthiest lol.

O WOW you look great! I love the boots also!

I live up by State College, just starting my 6 month pre op program for the insurance company. hope you have a smooth healing process!

I have been "dieting" for 35 yrs and im ready to take this tool and make a lifestyle change...Im using the next 6 pre op months to make these changes..we have spent many years abusing our bodies and they will fight us every step of the way, celebrate every step you win , have a good support system thru family friends or even here online. I have learned a lot in a cpl weeks. Your Team is there to help you also, use them. Also mind set is key dont look to this as a diet, find yummy healthy foods that work for you not what the fad diet book of the day says. You can do this!
