I did get a little discouraged today because I weighed myself and I am at the same weight I was on Monday when I saw the Dr. I was just thinking man all this dedication to this diet and it hasn't moved since then... I mean I am at 9 pounds but I thought for sure a little more would have came off. I am supposed to start TOM on surgery day so I am not sure if that has any thing to do with it ..... ughhhh

Glad to hear you are doing Good!! I am sure as the days pass it will get easier and easier for you!! Thank you in advance for the little prayer! I definitely appreciate it! I have never had any surgery so I just have experiences from you guys to go by! The endoscopy was the most I have really had to do medically. Awww your poor little one! I am a preschool teacher so I totally understand sometimes they just need some extra love. My surgeon has given me strict directions to not pick up any kids or anything like that.. so I totally understand

Who's starting their new life on February 17th?
I am doing ok on my pre op diet as of Monday I was down 9 pounds hopefully I am down more!! I am on three protein shakes than I get a dinner with lean protein a cup of veggies I/2cup of starch and like a low fat yogurt or string cheese. It's been ok I am just over the diet lol but it will be totally worth it in the end! I have been using the premier chocolate individual protein shakes, they are pretty good! Except I am sure I can taste them in my sleep lol ...

Day 1 Liquid Diet
Hey everyone !! I can not believe I am two weeks out to my Surgery Date! it's almost surreal! So I am on my liquid diet and wow I hope it gets easier!! I have found it to be a little mental for me , would love to be able to actually chew something I do get one small meal which is like 4 0z of chicken or fish and a cup of veggies buts it's just a little tough in the mean time !! Praying it gets easier! The outcome is 100 percent worth it! So I will keep sipping away

Lol gosh it's gonna be tough but sooo worth it

Recovery/ Time off
Hey everyone!! My surgery is quickly approaching on Feb 17th! And I was just curious what everyone's recovery time was like! I have set a side a week off but If I need more I can take more time off as well ! I am a preschool teacher so I just want to make sure I take care of me first before I ease back in to work!
