I purchased my Gem Wraps at HSN and got a variety of wraps, I paid $35.00 for 48 which makes them about 79 cents per wrap. I received 12 Carrot, 12 Barbeque, 12 Tomato, and 12 Mango Chipotle wraps. They are easy to use, and you can put almost anything in them, roll them up in a wrap and you are good to go. I made a whole wrap and ate ½ of a wrap for lunch and saved the other ½ for dinner. My husband liked them too. It is a really nice alternative to bread or conventional things we use for wraps. It is another way to get fruit and veggies too when you put them in these wraps.

I am wearing jeans with no belt. No beachball belly pushing my pants down. Hip bones actually doing the job.
The exception is the jean shorts I put on this morning. I bought them a few months ago and now they are too big, needed a belt. Another month and they will be displayed at the Goodwill.

Today I wore pants that I haven't worn in YEARS (yes, I save everything). I tried them on a few weeks ago and they were a little tight...so I put them back in the closet thinking ok, I'll try them in a couple weeks. Well today I put them on and they were big...almost sloppy...I was amazed!! I wore them to work but they probably won't be worn again. Squeal!!

Hello all!!! My surgery is Dec 27th as well!! I've been on Protein shake/broth diet for 4 days now. I'm sooo excited and ready to get it done. Merry Christmas!!

Hello Patienceshy..."How many doctors do you have to see and for what?" I am two months into my Medical Weight Management (MWM), my insurance requires six months of physician supervised weight management or tracking of weight loss attempts. My surgeon's program includes the MWM in addition to the other diagnostic test, such as, abdominal US, UGI, sleep study, and chest x-ray. The test and follow up visits are in preparation for the surgery to ensure there are no complications and my body is ready, i.e., sleep study, if I'm under during surgery and stop breathing that could be problem.
My program requires a psych eval and a visit with a cardiologist along with lab test before my surgery. These are all small steps to prepare you for your new life.
Good luck!!!

Good luck each and everyone of you. It is a very exciting experience.. I had my surgery on 8/29/12.
It is rough the first couple of days but remember sip, sip, sip and walk, walk, walk....
First couple of days you might not get to much fluids into your tummy. IT is swollen, irritated and very sore...
Don't try and rush into the next stage of your post-op. take it one day at a time..
