I had a 3 month period also. I got everything else done super fast, but the wait is the worst. The best thing they were able to do for me was schedule my surgery for the day my 3 months was up.

My Nut said that straws cause us to swallow extra air. But if it's making it possible to drink... I say go for it.

Have any of you tried it?? Yum!! Is it the right kind of protein for us? Any experiences?

What was our start weight? you look great!

My orientation was in November, first appt with surgeon was Jan 16th, and surgery is april 16th. I had to do a 3 month supervised diet. I would have been done with all of my requirements after 1 month if it wasn't for the 3 month diet.

I'm still pre-op too, but I've been using the Garnier Fall Fight shampoo and can tell its helping with hair loss. I got the tip from a friend who is a few months post-op and has significantly slowed the hair loss with the shampoo.

Hmm. I'll have to try again, I thought about adding some crystal light to it too.

See, I was hoping I'd love the nectars, but I can't stand the smell :/

I can't put myself in your shoes, because I'm married, but because I am married to such an amazing supportive man, I encourage you to wait for somebody who loves you inside first. They're out there. He makes me feel more beautiful than I could imagine, and my weight loss will only enhance that.

So I'm 2 weeks away from my pre-op liquid diet. What were some must haves for your liquid diets pre AND post op? Favorite ways to get in Protein? favorite brands? So far I love powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury chicken Soup flavor. Any other suggestions?

I did HCG also and lost 28 lbs in 30 days. Its super hard, but doable. I used the totallyhcg brand of drops.

So I just got my sample packs of nectar and am so disappointed. They have a super strange flavor and smell. Have any of you not liked these and found ways of making them tolerable?

I am sending one of my friends a surgery week care package. If someone had sent you one of these, what kind of things do you wish had been in it?

I tried fuzzy navel and apple ecstacy. I didn't like either of them! I felt like they needed some sort of sourness to them. Also, the smell really bugged me. lol

Add me in Wordpress

I've found a great small group of girls on my wordpress blog, and we have become a great support group for eachother. Our sugery dates are all within the next 2 months. If anyone is interested in getting involved with us, let me know, and follow my blog.

That's hilarious! I mean, its scary, but I've never heard of such a thing. That is so odd. I'm interested to hear if anyone else has had this issue.

I got mine yesterday and was seriously disappointed.

I'm 21 also, and married to my high school sweetheart. Marriage isn't always easy. Its hard work, and sometimes not fun. We all change as we age, but you can grow and find yourselves together. If you love him at all, work it out. I'd hate to see a marriage ruined because you needed some space to find yourselves. Not many marriages can bounce back from that. All the trust is gone, and hard to gain back.

Do you think that your hunger is true hunger, or head hunger?

Yum. I love jerkey. I'll have to try it.

Once you are skinny and beautiful(er) they will be putting their feet in their mouthes. Just wait.

So exciting!! That would be good to get the gallbladder out at the same time. I really wanted mine out (even though I don't have symptoms), because its so common to need it out after surgery. But my surgeon said no. lol

I'm scheduled April 16th yay!!

Omg congrats! My insurance requires a 3 month supervised diet but it ends April 16th, so I did pretty good at being pushy. I was really nice about it though. They said they've never had someone as "motivated" as me lol.
