  1. I will definitely have to try that! It sounds amazing! Thank you
  2. Had them for the first time today and I just felt like I was in heaven!! Couldn't eat more than 3 baby spoonfulls but it was amazing!
  3. Thank you!! I'm so excited to Be on this journey!
  4. Well they definitely don't want me drinking soda because it's empty calories. But my nurse said we are all humans so if it happens to make it diet and limit it to 1 cup. But she said they would rather I not of course lol. I'm going to try not to but when my friends are all drinking it would be nice to sip on something else besides water!
  5. My doctor said nothing carbonated or with caffeine for 3 weeks. I tried a decaf coffee yesterday with soy milk and I couldn't drink it it made my stomach hurt so I might try again next week!
  6. You'll be a hot mama! Well we all already are beautiful but we will definitely be happier with ourselves!
  7. Thanks ladies. I can't wait tell I'm 3 months out to see the transformation I make by then! Just in time for my birthday <3
  8. Tonight's my first ladies night since surgery. I'm down 23 pounds and have a new confidence!
  9. My doc said a month.. Which is ridiculous! Lol
  10. It's seeing If there are any fellow Minnesotans on here! It would be nice to have someone to connect with who is local!
  11. That's good to know! I love seafood and I'm clear for regular foods 5 weeks out.. Only 3 more to go!
  12. My thoughts and prayers are with you!
  13. 2 weeks post op! Surgery weight: 287 Last week: 276 This week: 265!
  14. I had surgery on a Monday and wasn't allowed anything to actually drink until Tuesday. They did give my some sponges on a stick (lol best way I could discribe it) to swab my mouth on Monday but I couldn't actually swallow. And I wasn't ever allowed ice chips
  15. It took a while for the initial process because my insurance was being special.. (I have preferred one) but once I was approved, I saw my surgeon July 10th and had my surgery July 23rd!
  16. Omg! I think about this just about every day! I have never been thin so I think it's natural for us to know as long as we do our part it will happen! I even go on to websites and check out clothes that I'll be able to wear in a few months. It's so hard not to! Lol. And I've got the stomach fat and big arms too. But as soon as I get the all clear I'll be working my ass off lol.
  17. Leeann chin! The orange chicken and wantons.. I seriously ate there once a week before surgery. But being healthy and thin will taste much better so I'm sure I'll survive lol
  18. I haven't tried it but I know a lot of people do eat it! I think they are more concerned about whole. I asked if I could have corn once I get to soft foods and they said no because corn expands in your stomach. So I just said ok lol. But I'm sure the soup is just fine!
  19. I had to go 3 times.. My hospital has weird rules!
  20. Thanks! I'm going to just use that on them and then let it be! I know of someone doesn't get it the first time they probably won't ever sonill just show them a year from know why I chose this tool for myself!
  21. My favorite before surgery pic I was about 315 there. I loved myself too but definitely knew I wasn't healthy! So excited tonstartbthis journey
  22. I had my surgery because I had way high blood pressure and was on 2 different meds two times a day to try and lower it... And I'm 24 now but started the pills when I was 22.
  23. My doctor also told me I have to wait tell I'm a few months out to eat corn or peas.
