Don't blame you st all. It's all I can think or talk about. My husband said he wished it was now, cause all I talk about is the weight loss and exercise. Lol
-
Awesome for you! I started the protein drinks for my breakfast and only 1 glass of pop a day. Losing a pound a day. Drinking lots of water for first time in my life. Easier than I thought. I also like the shakes

I swear cigarettes are such a drug. Hard very hard to put down. But in order to get this have to quit. I understand why. My neighbor died a cpl months ago after this surgery. And was 3 days post op smoking, got blood clot and died. Man was in late 30s. So very important
-
Totally awesome. You must not have to wait the 6 months?
-
Welcome. Sounds like you and I are on same schedule. Had my 2nd last Friday also. My end is scheduled for June 5th. I'm very excited and can't wait! ???? I have seen the nut and my 2nd psychological appt is in July so planning on a August surgery date of all goes well.
-
Awesome!
-
A couple days was all it took for me. I'd check with them
-
Had my nut appointment today and scheduled for exercise demonstration next month. Started subbing a protein drink for one of my meals today too. Not bad at all. Also got snack bars, good too

Good for you!

As you see I'm on here 24 hrs a day. But wow have I learned a lot

I believe so. They'll tell ya at your surgeon's appointment. But I had a checklist everyone goes by from the insurance lady. Some things were added and crossed out depending on each person's ailments. Got this my first visit.
-
No they get your stomach prepared for sleeve
-
Next appointment on Friday. I get excited with each one
-
5 back surgeries have also contributed to my weight gain. I'm very excited to change the hand I've been dealt
