  1. I asked my nutritionist about that very same thing yesterday and she said that is simply not true. I don't know what to think. But I do know that sugar turns straight to fat! So I am definitely staying away from sugar, I will stick to water or artificial sweetners, Goodluck
  2. Don't give in....keep your mind on being thin and healthy. You can do it. Go brush, floss and gargle. If you have to leave a little toothpaste in your mouth. This will certainly stop the craving. Good luck. I am praying for you
  3. Congratulations on your success...I so hope mine will go the same way. I am so nervous. Thanks for sharing your experience.
  4. You can do it! I haven't had my surgery yet...I'm really very nervous. April 2nd is my date. I still haven't decided sleeve or bypass. I will meet with my Doc on Friday and make my final decision. Why did you decide on the sleeve?
  5. How come so many people go to Mexico?
  6. Stay away from pasta and try to concentrate on protein and veggies.
  7. You look great! I can't wait for my surgery but I am getting really, really nervous!
  8. What kind of problems did you have in the beginning?
  9. I hope you do not have a leak...I would call the Doctor right away, just to make sure. Leaks can be very serious.
  10. The test I had today showed I have a hiatal hernia as well. I guess my Doc. does a different test for that. Thank the Lord. Mine was bad enough!
  11. What did you have to get it done for? I don't think I have to have that. I had to have a Barum Swallow test today before my surgery.
  12. I too am very excited, nervous and scared to death! My surgery is going to be April 1st or 2nd. I will find out Friday when I see my Dr. for the pre-op visit on Friday. I still have not decided if it will be the sleeve or bypass. We will decide that on Friday. I go for my Barum swallow test on Monday. It is all coming up so fast. I'm just trying to keep focused on how much better my health will be. Good luck to you!
  13. Stick with the popsciles....much better for you!
  14. What kind of shakes are you drinking?
