Thanks everyone for the kind words. I feel like such a failure. Out of spite I ate like a pig for Easter and now I'm so mad at myself. Surgery was suppose to be tomorrow. I'm calling tomorrow to reschedule for July. Gotta keep my ass in the game!! Hope everyone is doing better than me!!

Hello ladies...I wish you all the best of luck tomorrow and the easiest of recoveries. I'm so sorry I'm not going on this journey with you guys. I'll be thinking of you all. I've postponed for three months. So can't wait to read about your progress!!! You guys made it!!!

Pls don't give up....... If surgery is so close............ If u went this far in getting it then finish through.... That's why diets don't work for us cause we give up.... U got this..... If u need support we all are here for u........ This was the best thing for me.... I'm 4 months out

I called and canceled. I'm so disappointed in myself. I caved to the complaints and harassment of my sisters, my mom and my husband. I'm giving myself three more months to diet oh own them I'll see about rescheduling.

I'm postponing my surgery. I've lost decent weight on my own right now. I'm too scared to take this risk. I'm going to call my surgeon now. I really wish you girls the best of luck and success in your journeys. I'm gonna sneak on every once on a while to get an update. Maybe it will give me the courage I'm lacking. Good luck guys!!

OMG we would NEVER kick you out!! I just got scared that there was something I didn't know about. I am really such a whiner but I'm getting scared more and more. I'm getting everything in order like I might DIE! Wrote my kids letters just in case. I need to snap out of this funk and get excited!

I thought dumping only happens to those getting a bypass??

Thanx gixxergirl. Way too much to think about. And I got 2 little ones they keep throwing in my face. Think about them. Don't take the risk. I can't talk about it anymore.

My surgery is in 4 days and I'm thinking about postponing too. I have no support from my family and it is stressing me out big time. I'm crying all the time and being on the liquid diet is even worse....not to mention I'm PMSing too. It's like the perfect storm for emotional meltdown.

I am use to the shakes. Still need to pack and situate the house. They don't tell me the time until Sunday! Easter is going to be rough. Huge family outing and they don't know about the surgery. Fighting like crazy with my mom and sister. I think they are going to fight me until I pass out from the anesthesia. My hubby is still not happy but he took the day off to be with me. I think they all think I'm going to fail. Not lose weight and still eat. And my sister again said I'm taking the easy way out bc I'm lazy and don't want to do it the right way. Isn't it really bad to go into surgery stressed and upset??!?! With all this stress and all I can do is sip a damn Protein Shake pisses me off even more!!! I don't need this sh!t.

Hey Chris. We are all rooting for you!!! So excited and happy that we can go on this journey all together! Keep us posted.

So how is everyone doing???? Three more days!!!! What's the status on everyone's nerves? Are you packed? Going crazy?

Everyone on here says when you stalk you should up your Protein and calorie intake. It boosts your metabolism abs stimulates weight loss. And make sure you get your Water in!! Good luck guys!

Hey Morgan. Looking to see how you're feeling...want to update? I really hope you're feeling better.

Can you guys believe we are a week away!!?!? I'm freaking out. Things are really stressful at home and I ate this weekend when I know I shouldn't have. I'm so lost right now not knowing what I should do....so depressed. AND I got my period today...boo

Try Dr. McMullen, I have an appointment with her on the 22nd of this month I called many different offices and hers was the best and just with the one phone call to her office I learned so much info about gastric sleeve even things I didn't yet research and I got all my paperwork mailed to me in less then a week and all my insurance questions answered in less then 8 minutes. She is located in syosset and affiliated with north shore, lij, syosset hospital and a few others I did research on her and is one of the best. Good luck

Dr. McMullen is my surgeon!!! I love her and her staff. She's at Syosett hospital and manhassett too. My surgery is April 21st. Ask me any questions you want!

This really is inspiring...

Hey mommy...those EAS are the only ones I drink! I'm heading to target tomorrow to see if they're in sale... Thanks for the heads up. I do hope that after I'm sleeved (actually, IF I get sleeved) that I still like them...

Same with me Eboni. I have my final medical clearance appointment tomorrow then I am OFFICIALLY done...just gotta make it to April 21st

Hey Clara! It's really like you read my mind with your post. I am a week into my pre op and I cheated today!! I'm PMSing and needed salt. I just had a sausage patty and feel sick to my stomach. I'm so disappointed in myself.

And I was thinking if I can lose weight, cheat, then get right back on the wagon, why cut out 80% of my stomach!!!

I'm scared and these second thoughts are a killer! Reading these posts help. But my mind is still confused.

I am really having second thoughts. With only 8 days left before D day, I'm getting scared. Why can't I just stay on a 1200 calorie a day regimen? I could binge if I want for a day then get right back on track. Is anyone else freaking out?

My surgery is April 21st!! I'm so excited. I've been on the pre op diet for 5 days now. It's going great'

Hey dlperry. I'm the 21st too!! I'm down 12 pounds already in 5 days!! Glad you're feeling good! Only 10 more days!

So I just read in a different thread that a blender after surgery is not allowed as it creates air within the shake. When you drink it you become I'll bc of all that air in your new tummy. Good to know!!

So this is a snap of my first week. Second week is the same but no optional meal. It's rough!! I'm working from home today and I am scared that I can't trust myself!!!

So day three was rough!!! I felt like a criminal eating off my four year old's plate today!!! Dinosaur chicken tenders never looked do damn good! So then I walked a mile on my elliptical. Lol. How is everyone else doing tonight!?!

You look fantastic!!! I wanna be splendidly average too!!!!!!
