Looks like you have already took the right step in loosing weight........meaning dead weight!! Good riddance to this controlling "friend"!! You will never regret this decision and look at all these new, supportive friends you have on here! Wishing you the best of luck!

I love a challenge! I am in! Will post CW and goal Friday. I am 3 weeks post op and in the inevitable 3 week stall right now.

This makes perfect sense!! I did have egg salad the other day and it was fine. The hard boiled egg today was pure hell for atleast an hour!
Thanks for your reply!

My doc said to wait on eggs because they tend to get stuck.

I was given some samples at the hospital of Bari Life supplements. Has anyone tried these? I like the fact it is just one powder you mix in Water and it gives you all the Vitamins you need! No swallowing multiple pills.

Mine was May 12th also. I lost 17 on the pre-op diet but I'm waiting to get on the scale until my post-op appointment. I'm feeling pretty blessed. Not much pain or discomfort. No nausea. I'm able to get my fluids in. Haven't hit my Protein but I'm coming pretty close. Looking forward to this new life!

I'm on soft foods and my favorite right now is the Ricotta cheese Bake from The World According to Eggface. It's amazing! Two great websites I have found for recipes is the Eggface site and Bariatric Eating. They both have tons of recipes!

Surprise call from my dr that I can go for my surgery tomorrow! Wow talk about last minute, beggers can't be choosers I'll take it! Magnesium citrate here I come.

I had my surgery May 5th. I was scared and nervous but was so pleasantly surprised. It seems to have been so easy. Other than a little tenderness at the incision sites, I have had no pain, and best of all, NO HUNGER! You all will do great and I am excited for yall!

I was down 10 lbs at my 1 week appt. Lost 4 in pre op diet so it was a total of 14 lbs. I am now 12 days post op

My surgery was at 9:30. I've been dozing on and off from the pain meds. As expected, most of the pain is from gas. Doc said everything went great! Thanks to everyone for the prayers and well wishes.

Good luck! Mine is tomorrow too!

I had all the same fears. I had a week long food funeral and ate everything in masses. I finally realized I was tired of food controlling me. You will be so happy you made this choice! I am one week post op and am down 16 lbs today. And as far as the drinking, my doc told me yesterday that I can drink as much as i want after July as long as I have a DD! I am going on a girls cruise late July so I will see how it goes! : )
