downsizingdiva replied to boosh10's topic in Protein, Vitamins, and Supplements
I got orange because it was on sale. Swore that I would make myself drink it even if I hated it. Well I couldn't drink it when I got home from surgery it was horrible, so horrible that I can't even bring myself to try it again. -

downsizingdiva replied to downsizingdiva's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Don't feel that way. Many of us on here had delays, cancelations etc but everything eventually turned out fine. Like me, I had to wait 4 months for surgery after being approved. -
I was 311 to start 280 surgery and 274.5 now. I'm freaking out a little. I do not weigh every day.if my jeans were not baggy in me now like they are, I would be really going nuts!
