  1. Had my surgery yesterday things went well. Glad it's over with. My tumor was removed from my liver also. Just really sore. Walked this morning with no problems. Waiting on this upper gi test the. I can have clears but I am not hungry.
  2. Thanks I asked could I have anything else besides the shakes like sf Popsicles or broth. I was told no :-( they are strict.
  3. I wish I could have different protein powders. I can only have Baractric Advantage and it's nasty. I started yesterday and so far so good but I can not stop craving mixed nuts Weird lol. Good luck to you.
  4. Good job how are you feeling now?
  5. After I was diagnosed I got my machine the next day. It doesn't take long. Good luck.
  6. We are getting sleeved on the same day. Yay
  7. Yay I got a new date 2/26/14
  8. Sorry you are having complications. The positive is you lost 22.5lbs yayyyy. I hope you get better.
  9. Try SF torani syrups. They come in many flavors. They are really good. Walmart carry them. I put a few drops in my protein shakes. That is the only way I can tolerate those awful tasting protein shakes.
  10. Thanks :-). We had a winter storm here and the roads was awful. So it was for the best. I too believe that God is doing this for a reason. Maybe to teach me about patience, I really don't know. I was suppose to be on this diet for 2 weeks this is my 3 week. Yesterday I was told to stay on the diet and I can return to work Monday. I was down but I prayed about it. I brought some sugar free Popsicles and torani suger free syrups ( I put that in my protein shakes so it tasted a whole lot better) Thanks again for the word of encouragement
  11. So still no date. I am frustrated and now I am wondering is it worth it. These is my third time waiting for a date. First time my surgery was stopped bc is have a growth on my liver. The second time we had a winter storm. I know things happen and you can't control God's work. I am human, I have emotions and I am frustrated. Maybe I shouldn't get excited or anxious. I am really at the point if saying screw it. I know these things happen I make my wonder is these a sign not to do it. Just venting out my frustration.
  12. I can't have everything to eat. I live in Montgomery, AL. The south is not use to weather like this.
  13. Thanks and yes the shakes are getting old. I got bored mixing different fruit. I am limited of what I can put in the shake. Thanks again and God Bless you too :-)
  14. Thanks. I have been on my diet going in 3weeks.
  15. I did the same thing. I told everyone. I was excited. I got some positive and negative comment. Mostly positive. Some people told me I really don't need it and that is a dangerous surgery. I thought all surgeries can be risky but if you have faith in the Good Lord he will bring you through. Then I was told by one individual that is the lazy way out. Clearly that individual didn't educate themselves about the surgery. You have some people that have a one track mind. I simply ignore the negative and wrap my arms around the positive. Sometimes people don't want to see you change for the better. It's sad
  16. My surgery date was 1/29/14. My surgery was cancelled due to the weather. This is the second time. The first time my surgeon could not continue with my surgery bc he found a tumor on my liver. So I had to go through a lot if test. It is benign. So now I am playing the waiting game. My surgeon office is still closed and I still have to drink this awful protein shake no food just 3 shakes and plain water. Ugh! Oh well things happen. Can't get upset about The Lord's work. I am just venting and anxious.
  17. Thanks. My surgery was cancelled due to the weather here in Alabama so hopefully they will reschedule soon.
  18. Thanks me too. Good luck with your journey. Keep me posted.
  19. No I will find out tomorrow or Thursday. :-(
  20. I lived in SC before. Myrtle Beach on the Air Force base.
  21. Lol I live in Montgomery,Al. It's the same way here. Shut the city down. I am not original from Montgomery , Al. Lol me too I totally feel ya.
  22. I am sorry. My surgery was also cancelled due to the weather. I do understand how you feel I am feeling the same way. Also I still have to drink these protein shakes until I hear something. Ugh
