  1. I am too excited! Hungry and excited. Lol
  2. I haven't noticed any crankiness. I have been having headaches though. A Chilli cook off would have been torture though
  3. Upside is I've lost 11lbs in two days.
  4. I was told I couldn't chew gum but apparently everyone's surgeon is different. This caffeine withdrawal is a beast though.
  5. I hope it's all easier from here. I'm sure it's good to be home. Don't forget to walk around hourly.
  6. Sending blessings your way. It's a piece of cake. Just relax. You're in good hands.
  7. Day 1 down on my liver shrinking diet. It wasn't so bad. I didn't go to the cafeteria with my coworkers because I knew that would have been hard. I pray these next six days goes as smooth.
  8. I'm going to bed early to make the time go by faster!
  9. I thought I read something that said I couldn't chew gum the week before surgery.
  10. Yeah. It's understandable that you slipped. Just get back on track. I've been drinking crystal light every time I thought about it. I was trying to avoid hunger. Well, here's hunger. Lol
  11. But why can't we chew gum?
  12. Good luck with everything. I can't believe you're going to work. I'm glad mine is at 0730. I would have probably gone to work too.
  13. I'm in Charlotte but I'm having bypass surgery in Rock Hill, SC on the 21st.
  14. I appreciate that and I'm here to get as much helpful info as possible so thank you. Is the video titled "beyond diet official?"
  15. Good luck with everything. I'm having the bypass on the 21st. I week from tomorrow! I guess post op is kinda similar except for, in the long run, you'll still have to monitor your sugar. I don't think there's dumping with the sleeve.
  16. I'm glad everything went well. I hope I don't get a drain.
  17. Oh Em Gee! I can't imagine how disappointed you must have been. Everything happens for a reason. I would have just been happy that they had it under control. Are you still doing the lapband?
  18. I can't have pureed until week 3.
  19. Thank you. I was one of the petrified ones. Lol Did you have the sleeve or the bypass?
  20. I'm gonna start my diet tomorrow. I'm looking forward to this being over and done.
  21. I just bought some more food for recovery. I'm supposed to start my 7 day preop diet Monday but I may as well start tomorrow. This Is Gonna Be The Longest WEEK Of My Life.
  22. Thank you so much. I'm glad that everything went well. I'm sure you'll drop the Water weight quickly.
  23. Thank you. That was very helpful and put me at ease a little.
