  1. It seems like forever for me because I started this journey in March and was approved in September. But I'm very thankful that is almost, really, finally here! I have EAS Carb Control - any flavor, Nectar Caribbean Cooler, Nectar Vanilla Bean Torte. P.S. I am not picky at all whatsoever so I hope it stays that way post op. I want some Premier but have to drive 40 miles to get it in bulk, to expensive in my town, I will look at Supplement Warehouse. Never heard of it before. Thanks!
  2. How many people are getting liquid pain meds or do most give you pills? I have a fear of pills post op but maybe you crush them?
  3. Yep! A two week clear liquid that includes protein shakes. I'm pretty used to doing shakes all day long then a semi-low carb dinner. I had a stomach bug over Christmas so I decided to go ahead and start liquid diet yesterday. But this morning my little boy made breakfast so I had an egg sausage and cheddar cheese. Jan 1st I've got to go by the rules! I'm just apprehensive about headaches I may get cuz I'm very susceptible to those and about nausea that I've read about on pre-op diets. We're tough surley we can do it!
  4. Just looking for people on the same date!
  5. My date is Jan 15th. Started my pre op diet today which is 6 days early. Praying I am tough enough!
  6. I started my liquid diet 6 days early today...i owe this to a stomach bug over the weekend and a huge dose of workplace stress today. Went to the store on a break to get some more pre op must haves. Hoping I can do this!
  7. I honestly hope to never be very hungry again. My actual hunger, nor head hunger, has ruled my life.
  8. I won't have any trouble watching what I eat this Christmas. I've got some sort of stomach flu. .I think I'm going to just go ahead and try to start liquid diet since I have to on Jan 1st anyway....Merry Christmas!
  9. PRAYERS FOR ALL OF Y'ALL THIS MORNIN'!

  15. I came across the JOURNEY all in one bariatric vitamins last night. Was thinking of getting those but they don't have everything my nutritionist requires like vitamin k etc.
  16. So tell us all about it if/when you feel like it!
  17. Go get a MONISTAT ONE DAY TREATMENT if you don't want to fool with the doctor.
  18. How cute, I have stocked up on so many tiny dishes, glasses, storage containers, my son laughs at how I always say, isn't it the cutest tiniest little thing, I love it!
  19. Well I learned today that I'm borderline diabetic. So glad I'm already approved. Hopefully we can nip this in the bud in January Lord willing.
