  1. I Have to do the liquid diet for 14 days.. I am on day 9 and have lost 14 pounds so far... I have tasted a piece or two of chicken breast that was grilled... But that was it.. It took until day eight for it to get easy... But hang in there it will be okay
  2. I am drinking the unjury, lean shakes from GNC, medislim I get those from my primary care doctor... And the key is to drink lots of Water I drink about 80 ounces of water in between shakes and throughout the day
  3. Just got back from my PAT and the technicians and nurses said that everything was perfect and beautiful. Signed a couple of papers they took some blood, did an EKG, and chest x-ray. And I love that I lost 14 pounds in nine days... Five more days to go so hopefully I can reach my 20 20 pound personal goal my surgeon only wanted me to lose 10... June 11 I cannot wait to see you
  4. Yeah I'm going on my lunch break and taking an extra hr.. So hopefully it's not longer... Lol
  5. Hopefully none.. Lol...my insurance has been picking up the tab... I've only had to pay for co-payments of $15 and my psych evaluation for $225... So they better keep shelling out the dough.. Lol
  6. I had my first appointment on April 8.. I had to make all of my clearance appointment.. The surgeons office gave me a list... And I am getting sleeve on June 11.. I finished all of my appointments on May 29.. And I scheduled my surgery on May 9.. I had to meet with three times to go over everything
  7. Yeah I guess That's Why they want me to fast before going for two hours.. But at least in those two hours I can have water
  8. Yeah I have mine tomorrow And she said 1.5-2 hrs plus I can only have water two hr prior my sleeve date is june 11
  9. Good Luck to everybody!!!
  10. I have my pre- admission testing tomorrow.. Surgery in six days... Got to stay focused... The liquid diet is easy. Now... Took eight days for it to get easy... Let's get this show on the road
  11. I'm on day 8 of my 14 day liquid diet... It just starred getting easy today! It was hard those first 7 days... I cheated with a tiny piece of protein ( chicken breast) and a pickle... But remember to drink lots of water! The water really helps keep u full.
  12. Are those the lean shakes from GNC?
  13. Well good luck to you too!!!
  14. Congrats!!! Good luck and a speedy recovery!!!
  15. You are definitely going to Lose a lot of weight Priya so just think of it as that... I have been doing the pre-diet for seven days and it is going okay and seeing the scale go down quite a bit I think I will reach my 15 to 20 pound loss by my surgery date of June 11... Good luck to you
  16. Sorry I am using talk to text and it just sent it the way it was. What I meant to say was I can't wait to be full from a smaller portion it seems like it takes so much to fill me up now. I am on a liquid diet these two weeks and I am on day 6 .., 8 to go
  17. I totally Agree with what you were saying. I can't wait before from a smaller amount it does it dictates a lot of food to fill me up
  18. Yup it is go time! Ready or not time is flying!!
  19. Me too... June 11th sooo excited!!! Good luck and well wishes and healing to June sleevers!
  20. I did a similar program with my primary care Dr. and I lost 60 pounds in a relatively short amount of time I would say seven months... And I kept it off for several months but the weight slowly creeped back on.., I am scheduled to be sleeved On June 11th... So I agree with the other people that you can lose weight on a particular program but it's the transition into normal life that is hard to keep the weight off... Having a smaller stomach will limit the amount you eat... which makes maintaining the weight easier... I also think that you know when it's your time to go through with WLS.. For me I was ecstatic when I lost the weight but miserable when the lbs came back on.. Also the hormone gherlin is reduced significantly with the surgery so hunger will also be less... Some Even say they are never hungry after having the sleeve... Which will be a blessing for me Good luck in your decision making process
  21. Lunaya, When did or do u get sleeved? And how r u doing
  22. I started taking my vitamins a month ago so that it's in my system by surgery.. I take a multivitamin, calcium citrate, B-12 and a probiotic
