    Cream based soups.....

    Panes is great but remember it tastes better because it is worse for you. It had a higher fat content. Not deterring you, just letting you know.
  2. Angie!!

    Full liquid ideas...please!

    Mine allows and cream soup strained. Cream of mushroom, potato. Etc
  3. Full liquids includes stage 1 baby foods for me. Have you tried those? Peaches and pears are good and offers variety. They are not expensive.

    2 week prep

    You are doing fine! I never advise Doing different than the dr recommends however mine said, it was okay not to drink 6 but I had to get 5 in. Touch base with them and see what they think. Your body will lose weight the way it wants to do just trust it follow the rules and you will be doing great!!
  5. I can't believe how many people's advice is to do something different than the doctors says. If we were all experts we would no be where we are. Don't drink the caffeine and don't take the aspirin. Drink a lot of water And wait it out. By day 3 the headache should be gone and if it not, call you dr and ask what they want from you.

    Fluids

    I personally have never seen it in a store near where I live.
  7. How's it going? I am sept 4 too. Day 4 of liquids. Have you ever realized how much food advertising there is?!?

    Thoughts about smoothies

    I think it is a really bad idea! I had a muscle milk (chocolate) with a scoop of PB2 today. It was good.
  10. My date is September 4th. Less than 2 weeks. U won't lie. I cry at least a little bit everyday when the fear gets the best of me.
  11. I understand!! I too freaked out and backed out several years ago. I have bee confident this time jut recently started getting really anxious. I think it is normal. It is important to remember that we are doing this to be their for our kids and living obese is dangerous. We are all here for you! Calming wishes for you.
  12. Glad it is going well for you! My NUT stressed that even if I wasn't hungry I HAD to have 5 shakes a day (an could have a 6th if I wanted) but who wants that!?
  13. I am day 2 of the 2 week liquid pre op diet (surgery 9/4) and I feel like crap!! My head hurts, I have chills, I have a nasty taste in my mouth, and I am hungry!!!!! This is hard!
  14. My surgery is in 2 weeks an I have spent the better part of the last 2 days crying about how scared I am. But..... Being morbidly obese is so much more dangerous than surgery so I am trying to stay sane.

    August 2013 Roll Call

    In my humble opinion, any strawberry protein drink is the worst!!! I stuck to vanilla an then buy the sugar free torani syrups to add to them.
  16. I am familiar with complications but did not read any horror stories until last night. Now I am terrified! How do you get past what could go wrong?? Surgery is 9/4. I really need to be healthier than I am.
  17. The hospital just called to preregister me for my surgery on the 4th. They asked next of kin, if I am an organ donor, and if I have a living will. Now I am terrified!

    Considering VSG

    I understand how you feel a lot. I am 34 and more like 370 pounds. It has taken me 9 years to make this decision. I too have anxiety and depression. My parents worry about me. It is okay to make this decision for you and her but please seriously consider counseling before and after surgery. They can help you understand your needs and motivations as well as coping strategies. Best of luck to you! ~angie
  19. We planned a tentative date when I first met my surgeon. It was only after my prerequisites and tests were completed that they confirmed the date and scheduled the time.
