  2. Yes, blow up his phone!! But not in a "crazy" way.
  3. See it's all for money! I have defiantly met some people who had the surgery and were like, seriously? Your crazy a** passed the psych eval?! Ok I'm good! ; )- And I'm not even really crazy,.....it's documented! Ha! It is fun to throw that up at the husband every once in awhile! Best part of the whole hoopla!
  4. That sounds like a winner!
  5. Well if he had questions why didn't he just ask them then?!
  6. Oh and a 25 question test about "inappropriate prescription drug use" stupidest test ever!! First question was something like why do you use Prescription drug?, Me umm I don't. Next question" what does your family think about your drug use" me...ummm I don't use drugs!" Why did you start abusing drugs"...me Ok we are done here A-hole! How can I answer A 25 question test on the drug abuse I DONT DO?! I wrote that on the paper and gave it back to them...ignorant...and it made me want To take a sedative! lol!
  7. Oh! Well.....Chinese is hard! It's my favorite BUT the good stuff is always fried, or full of sugar! The only other thing I can think of is we have chicken on a stick...marinaded chicken...on a stick lol! Or Moogoogiapan? Oh or a seafood dish!
  8. Yep mine was a 1+ hr appointment 20 min talk, 1 hr paper "test" blah blah blah! I guess I hid my crazy quite well because I was approved! I was going to be worried for you until you said your friend had to go twice...odd, it's probably all about the money!
  9. I ate the egg drop soup, hot-n-sour soup and chicken veg soup....so I'd say soup! : ) if you want actual food maybe a small serving of beef and broccoli?
  10. @@ngoycoanaya that sounds like a good plan!
  11. @@GeorgiaT It's different because all our surgeons have different requirements to follow.
  12. Two weeks of liquids, and 2 days post-op
  13. Congrats, all sound like valid reasons! Welcome!
  14. They are a tiny round pill that you put under your tongue to dissolve. It's just dissolvable vitamin b-12
  15. Only thing I'm taking with different than that is a super b complex on top of the b-12 shot and b-12 dots.
  16. Congrats on your surgery! I hope you have a speedy recovery
  17. Hope you and your wife are doing well!!
  18. I hope it's the right tool for you too! Hey, there was someone else on here earlier asking about the band to sleeve revision, maybe you could find them and be able to answer some questions? Good luck on your new journey!
  19. Lol yep all over the place, but that's ok I get it! I can't even begin to answer all that Because most of it is a "time will tell" kind of answer. I can tell you that the chance of a leak and death are pretty darn slim, skinny comedians are funny too hello Louis CK!, and sushi is going to take a min but it's not out of the question. Your love of food may change, I know I could careless About food or eating at this point ( which is amazing considering I was a food-a-holic ) I know crazy right!? Of course you can still go out with friends! Why would you not be able to? Your planing a WLS not a funeral silly!
  20. @@ngoycoanaya Ok wait a minute...so your day 6 and not getting any protein in? I just re-read that. You know even if your surgeon doesn't want you to have the "milk -type" protein shakes you can still have things like the clear isopure protein ready-made drinks. You really need to have protein! What are you ingesting as a diet?
  21. @@ngoycoanaya No never but I didn't exercise so early out. I wasn't even getting in 300 calories, there was no way I was going to exert energy when I wasn't feeding my body. I'm sure I would have been light headed if I had! Just try to stay hydrated and drink as much protein as you can, and make sure your taking all your vitamins!
  22. I think I've had this before and it was really good, thanks for re jogging the memory!
  23. Congrats on getting it together and re-starting your progress!
  24. Oh and yes, what MrsMike1 said , it's to shrink your liver...sorry I didn't mean to half answer your question!
