I would say if you are going to try to lose 160 lbs then yes you will probably defiantly have lose skin. I don't see any possible way to avoid it BUT on the bright side if you do lose that much you will be so much healthier it shouldn't even matter...if you can't stand it plastic surgery is always an option! Good luck to you!

@@Ozman Hello! I'm a November sleever 11/3 so a little bit ahead of you.

My worst 2 days where the first two home it will get better. Day 5- where Much better! Hang in there!

Yay! Congratulations! Hope all is well!

Congrats!

Call your DR!

Not GNC unflavored because it is NOT in fact "unflavored"!

I'm not sure if that means your absolutely approved or not but I hope so! You could just call the insurance co and ask! Good luck!

Yay for the stall break!

Welcome to the Fam!

Thanks for sharing!

Sounds delicious! If I can ever pull myself away from my beloved chocolate premier protein shakes I will have to try that!

I didn't have anyone with me throughout the day(kids at school and husband at work) and I did fine! They just set up my chair with my fluids on ice meds..ect and I was good until Everyone came home! I didn't have any complications though so I was ok.

If you have a way to measure do it. You don't want to get sick and that sick can sneak up on you! It's good that your tolerating food that early out.

Our bodies react in crazy ways...I didn't have any Bp issues but my Blood sugar sky rocketed! I've NEVER had any blood sugar issues. They had to give me insulin every 4 hours then right before I went home It dropped and I had to drink OJ. Hopefully your body will just settle down. Yuck swallow test!!! I hate that nasty barium sulfate drink!! But You gotta do it and it's nice to know you don't have any leakage! Hang in there!

Good luck to you both!

Congrats and good luck!

That's Fabulous! What a sweet hubby!

Congratulations! All your hard work has payed off! Beautiful horse too BTW!

I take chewable Nature's Plus multi-vitamins with minerals in pineapple flavor! Most multivitamins make me deathly ill after I take them so I was scared To death to take any but these have never made me sick! I had to order them from vita-shop on line. They aren't cheap 90 for 24.00 or 180 for 45.00 compared to say wal-mart but They are powerful!

Yay! Good luck! That waiting is nerve racking!

I just wanted to tell you congrats! As far as the rest I have nothing. I wrote down A list of every question I had and took it to my appointment with me and checked them off the list as I asked. I knew if I didn't take a list I would forget something. So...if you need to make a physical list do it!

Day 4-5 will be golden : ) it will get better hang in there!

Welcome! It sounds like you know what you want! Good luck with the insurance, I hope you get a quick approval so you can come on over to the losers bench! Your baby sounds like a little blessing !

You'll be ok don't take it so hard. The reason why some of us lose so much pre-op is because we are on such a strict pre-op diet. I lost 16 lbs in two weeks but I was ONLY allowed 4 Protien shakes a day plus broth, sugar free Popsicles and Sugar free jello...nothing else! I didn't get any food at all. Some people like yourself are still allowed foods so try not to judge your pre-op weigh loss on anyone else's.
