  1. I ordered a bottle of the bariatrics chewables already. So I have one. I was trying to wait till after my surgery to see if I could tolerate the taste. I don't have a date yet so I still have a while to go.
  2. I have a question about vitimans. I'm a pre op and I'm trying to learn as much as I can before my surgery. Can you take your vitimans whole or do you crush them up? I know it's harder for you to digest them. I know the prenatal pills can be on the bigger side do you always take the chewable kind?
  3. I was 484 and my surgeon wants me under 450. So I had to loose34 pounds before he would see me for my second appointment. Every doctor is different. Mine just said he didn't feel comfortable doing the surgery with me over 450.
  4. Thanks girl! And you are on your way! It does feel like time drags on but in the end we are going to be happier and healthier!
  5. It is a long process to get the where you want to be. I am still pre op and it feels like its been for ever! I'm just now on my second appointment. And that's the end of the month. I had to loose 34pound to get that appointment. I'm still struggling to keep the 34 pounds off. I don't want the surgeon to turn me away because I gained it back. Where are you at in the process? Do you have to loose any weight before hand? Good luck with everything!
  6. Omg girl that's great!! And that dress is beautiful!! You are my motivation!
  7. Aww I'm sorry you feel so bad! Hopefully you will feel better tomorrow.
  8. With the yogurt you guys are eating do you eat the ones with the fruit in them or the ones that have low sugar? I really can't stand the bitter taste of plain yogurt. I've tried all the plain ones on the market they all are nasty to me. I'm still pre op but I see a lot of people post op eat yogurt daily.
  9. Where do you find them? I've been looking at wal mart here I only found the sf popsicles there.
  10. That's one of my favorite drinks too!
  11. I feel you! We are defiantly in the same boat. Being impatient is one of my weaknesses. I wish it was that easy wake up and be on the other side. There are defiantly others on here that have been in our shoes! That's why I love this site! We can come here and vent about a situation that someone has also went through or is going through. I can't do that on Facebook. People would tell me to shut up. Lol and for real people listen to you here.
  12. I'm going to buy all of those! Thanks for posting!!
  13. Those are sugar free?? I will be buying those lol
  14. Hey there!! I hit my goal!! I got my second appointments!! I have one on the 25 with the surgeon and one on the 27th with the NUT! I had a few slips before I went to weigh and I made it just at my goal. I was scared because I weighed in at 450.6 and I was thinking that he wouldn't see me because of the .6. lbvs I think that they made my appointment so far out to see if I can loose more weight. Yesterday and today I really have stuck to the diet. But I am going to get back on track. Its so easy to fall and so hard to get back up! I am going to try to loose at least 6 more pounds before my appt. That will be like 2 pounds a week. Just stay focused on your goal!! You can do it!!
  15. I don't have that luxury. Mine will be home but I have someone that's going to come stay with me. So I will still hear her throwing her fits and she will probably try to climb on me so I'm going to have to watch out for that. I'm going to get respite for my fosters. Hopefully they can find somewhere for them to go. I'm not stopping my surgery. That will be the agency's fault. It's hard sending them off since I've had them so long but they will only be gone a week.
  16. I wake up a couple times a night but that's due to my knees and back hurting. I have to reposition my body. If I wasn't on any pain I think I could sleep all night! I'm just so excited to even be at this point! I know it's going to be a struggle after the surgery but I think we can get through it. I just pray I have enough energy to deal with my one year old and my foster daughters. I'm going to request that they leave for a week. Hopefully there isn't any complications so I don't have to stay longer in the hospital.
  17. The doctor said that I didn't have to do the psych evaluation! Thank God! Lol and I know I snore but I don't think I have sleep apnea. I wonder would they cancel the surgery if you have it? We need to find that out. But he didn't have me get a sleep study either. I don't know how backed up the surgery dates are so we might end up with the same dates in December! That would be exciting to have a surgery buddy! That way we could comparing notes .lol
