Good to know I'm not the only one! In still starving by the afternoon (I can only have 4 shakes a day and sugar free clear liquids) but have lost 4 pounds in 3 days! Hoping this hunger goes quickly because my daughters birthday party is tomorrow! It will be very challenging to avoid the party food and birthday cake but it must be done

If any of you out there had csections how would you compare them? Was one worse, more restricting (aside from the diet)? Just trying to realistically prepare myself and manage my expectations. Thanks!

Wish List Or What You Look Forward To
jenneliza replied to LadyLocutus's topic in Weight Loss Surgery Success Stories
As a nurse it would be easier to stand for long periods of time, bend and lift if I were lighter. Hoping I'm taken more serious at work too. I can't wait to get on rides at amusement parks, get on a plane again, go on bus trips to NYC and DC etc. When we go to ball games trying to squeeze through the turnstyles is a challenge too. I would love to run 5ks an half marathons too! I just want to have a long healthy and active life. -
I'm still preop and last year I got rid of a ton of smaller clothes - still kicking myself for that! I just want to be able to fit into clothes in any store in the mall!

What Is More Painful?
jenneliza replied to jenneliza's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Wow thanks everyone! I feel better. After my csections I was pretty independent and had only discomfort. I'm glad it well for you all! -
I have been reading your posts for a week or so and love how supportive everyone is. My name is Jen and I'm a single mom of 2 - an 11 year old girl and 9 year old boy. Also a RN. My surgery is in exactly 2 weeks and starting the preop protein shakes on Friday. I'm so excited and can't barely think of anything else!

Last Week Of Appointments... Getting Nervous
jenneliza replied to americas_suiteheart's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Everything is moving too fast and too slow all at the same time! Had a reality check when I went out with girl friends for my "last hurrah" but it will be worth it! Elvislover I am July 10 so we will have to check in on each other! -
Awesome! Are you having any texture issues?

What Are You Going To Miss Most?
jenneliza replied to princemark75's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Everything! Champagne, carbs, raw fruits and veggies. I know alot of people are allowed to have them but my nutritionist says fruit and some veggies have too many carbs. And doesn't allow them. -

Girly Question ......birth Control Choice?
jenneliza replied to Erin's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
I'm afraid of depo bc of weight gain and the pill makes me sick. I've done nuva ring with success in the past. It's easier than it seems! -
I'm single too and not currently looking but hopefully will meet a nice guy after getting settled in to my new lifestyle.

People can be so insensitive! That sucks - but it's good motivation I guess. Lol we have been having last meals all week. Tonight was wings and ice cream. Tomorrow is pancakes, and Thursday is idk - probably olive garden for pasta alfredo.

jenneliza replied to landensmommy10's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Realize that you likely know more about this surgery than they do. Let them tell you how great you look afterwards!
