For anyone who smoked or smokes, what kind of nicotine tests do they do at the hospital before surgery?

Thanks guys I am very appreciative of all the encouragement and truth. I am trying once again today to do better and if it becomes too much I'll just eat an apple. Out what about watermelon?

I've lost about 12 lbs

Hi all! I am writing this because I am ashamed and embarrassed because I cheated on my liquid diet with several times. Now I've read ppl posts about cheating with fruits or maybe crackers but my ass went the extra mile and ate McD three times. I am completely worried but also wondering if I should even do this. I have 10days left, will my liver shrink enough in time? I've come so far and frankly too far too sabotage it for myself. Please folks give me some words of encouragement. Keep the criticism down to a minimum please.

Definitely taking vitamins No burgers/beef Trying very hard to stay away from fried foods Water and milk (hope I don't become lactose intolerant) Making every effort to exercise at least 3x per week

Congrats girl!!!!!! Happy birthday to you

I'm down lol!

Darling the struggle is real lol and these skinny chicks have no idea...I can always talk lol So pm me if you need someone who understands.

How could u be being selfish? Did he tell you why he does not support u?

I definitely understand that lonely feeling. If it wasn't for this site I would be lost. My mom just let me know how she really feels. it really hurt that she couldn't put her personal feelings aside just to enjoy the fact That I'm happy. She has the nerve to say when I was your age I did it and exercise worked for me. If that didn't amplify the doubts I have and increase the second guessing I don't know what can. I just decided that I'm going to do this alone and I'm ok with that

Hey girl my email is koreyjames2484@Gmail.com feel free to hit me up whenever. I do understand feeling like you're not heard when it comes to this. By the way my name is korey

My bad my phone and this damn auto correct....ugh. I was saying my PCP

I see u said something about being easily triggered to smoke and cry...I was there at the beginning of this process. My p p prescribed WellButrin for Mike depression and quitting smoking. More than anything this medication has made the surgery possible for me because smoking was a staple in my life and I was sad about everything which led to be eating everything. Its not for everybody but I am definitely singing it's praises. Good luck. I understand the lonely and lost feeling so feel free to message me anytime.

That's odd because when I asked Melissa about a May appt she said it would be possible because they were still scheduling for April. I'm sad to learn this because I wanted it done in May. Who is Rantis? Where is the Kane Center ?

I''ve come very far, I've been cleared by NUT,dietician and psychiatry. My paperwork should be submitted on Monday and when I get my approval I should get the date I want. So what's wrong with this picture....I can't stop eating everything. I have gained almost 15lbs since I started this process (1/31/14) and the doctor excused it cause I'm in the process of quitting cigarettes. Ok so I'm not sure if I'm sabotaging or what. I'm extremely worried now because I saw a younger girl who had the sleeve a couple months ago and she was eating chips, pop and candy. I do feel like I'll never get to eat my favorite foods again so I am consuming everything. I need some tips to stop eating everything
