Hey there, what part of bama:) I'm n va per military but from Ozark Alabama. Roll tideeee:) n gl

JUST WANTED TO WISH YOU ALL A HAPPY THANKSGIVING!! gl to all on the preop liquid during this time but keep your minds on why ur doing this and what will b the prize afterwards:). Take care all n chat w you after Thanksgiving, b safe n God Bless You All!! Dee Dee.

Wow, seems like we can't catch a break. But at least UK the issue now n can change to somthn different. Thx for sharing bc at least we will know what to do if it happens to us. Gr8j on the first day and two lbs gone, woohooo. Gl on the other days:)

Gr8 job! U CAN do this n gl:)

Well my fellow sleever, my advice, eat in moderation. Ik that sounds a lil obvious but here is your chance, in a non controlled environment, to prove to YOURSELF that even b4 the sleeve, you can b in control of portions as well as how n what to eat. Bc remember, the sleeve is just a tool and altho it won't physically allow us to overeat( wo repercussions) we still have to make the right choices of the what, when n how of eating. Enjoy yourself, yes, but not to the point that u just feel horrible afterwards. U can indulge but instead of the huge plate we are use too, half it, and then go bck later for something different. Instead of one huge meal, make mini meals, just like we will have to do when sleeved. You have a week to get it all in and if u eat small meals 3-5 times that day, then ull enjoy just like everyone else will. But be honest about the portions of the mini meals. Ull do gr8!, just njoy the holiday and don't let the food b the main focus. Like u said, uve worked hard for the weight uve lost so far. And if u gain some weight bck by doing the mini meals, at least UK u did the right thing in trying. Gl my friend and happy Holidays:))

Awwwwesome!! N congrats on ur loss thus far:). Keep us in da know:)

You are very welcome. Ik ull b here when its my turn:))

Gl n congrats on day 1. U can do it!

Def a great idea and hopefully we can start a new blog titled something like "Post op Dec Losers, what was weighing u down?" Then we can brag about our weight losses and challenges:) can't wait to add to the loss pile:)..gl 2 us all and Happy Holidays to come and gl to those who have to do this during thanksgiving, we have ur backs if u need us but we know that u can do this, keep ur eyes on the prizes that we will gain bc of our decisions to have this surgery! Dee:)

I've been going thru all of this since late May, first appt was June 24, and ive been hoop jumpn til I got the call while shoppn in Walmart! Date was set for Dec 13th pre, then Dec 20th surgery, I literally danced in Walmart. Then got a second call when I got home from shoppn, changed from 20 to 30th of Dec. I was sad but glad bc they had first told me Feb 2014:(( so for me its been 6 months but not bc of ins or diet but bc of gov issues, military:( newhoo. I'm here now, Thank God!!

Well, make sure you have all the vit, foods, drinks, just all the things needed for postop, I have a stockpile of things for pre/post op for the first 3 stages til maintenance, as well as, measuring devices, utensils n lots of prayers! U don't want to have to guess what u shud b doing postop, I've read many people on here not knowing what to do postop. Just my two cents but gl and keep us in tha know:))

Welcm n gl2 u!

I hope so cuz I have to do the same thing for 2 wks postop. I need to taste the unjury but scared too bc I alrdy bought it n can't sell it! But I've heard only gr8 things about the taste of it. N congrats on date, gl:)

Hello again all. I too dislike the new thing bc there are sooo many headaches with it. I say that to say this, if u don't c me on, I've not quit, I'm just frustrated w trying to navigate threw this site. I don't have fb so I can't c u there but I'll try nd update as things happen w me but gl 2 all n maybe I can return once they get this site together! Cyas, Dee Dee

Is any1 else having problems staying subscribed? Three times its happened to me. I'm subscribed to this group but noticed I wasn't getting any notices, which seemed strange. So I came on and sure nuff u guys had chatted since yesterday but I didn't get the notice. So I checked my subscription and it had unsubscribed me:( this site is becoming a pain in the bottom. Grr!

I hope we all can benefit from every1's experiences and advice. Come on Dec, I'm soooo rdy for my new Jeans, better knees and health:) Gla:))
